what if our flight is delayed?
We allow a minimum of 45 minutes for customers to clear Passport Control and Baggage Reclaim. At busy times of the day we allow even more time.
If you are delayed, we will wait for you but we may not be able to hold our bus for longer than 15 minutes after its scheduled departure time. After that we will do everything we can to get you on our next available transfer service at no extra cost.
Our team at the airport monitor flight arrivals so you don't need to contact us if you are delayed.
