You and your group will be the only clients traveling in the transfer vehicle. You will not be expected to share with other clients.
Private transfers are a door-to-door service.
You will be met in the Arrivals Hall by a representative of MorzineTransfer and taken to your vehicle. We aim to get you away from the airport as quickly as possible.
Prior to departing from your resort, you will be contacted via sms the day before your departure to confirm your pick-up time.
If you have booked a private transfer and you want to request a specific pick-up time from resort, we will try to accommodate this, however if you incur any costs from doing this, i.e you miss your flight or train, then we will not be liable to cover these costs. We will wait for a maximum of 10 minutes if you are not at the pick-up point at the stated time. After that we will depart. If we cannot contact you, we will assume you are not coming for your transfer.

PICK-UP/DROP-OFF LOCATION

Most of our pick-ups take place in the main Arrivals Hall in Terminal 1 of Geneva airport.
Upon touch down, could we ask you to please ensure your mobile phones are out of airplane mode, just so that we are able to communicate with you if necessary.
Once you enter the Arrivals Hall, please turn right, and walk approximately 80 metres to the Montreux Jazz Café which you will find directly in front of you. Waiting for you, just outside the café entrance, you shall find your driver holding a MorzineTransfer placard.
If for any reason you are landing or departing at Terminal 2, please make us aware, and we shall ensure that your driver will be by the exit of Terminal 2 to greet you.
If you are being taken to Avoriaz or other car free resorts then you will be dropped off and collected at a reception point on the edge of the resort. Our pick up times will reflect this so the client needs to be at the reception area for this time.

DEPARTURE PICK-UP TIMES

We will make you aware of a provisional pick-up time for your departure when you make a booking with us.
If there is a forecast of harsh or dangerous weather conditions, or potential delays for other unavoidable reasons, then we reserve the right to advance the pick-up time to reflect this.
We will text you the day before your pick-up to confirm your collection time.

DELAYS AND CANCELLATIONS TO YOUR FLIGHT

If you are made aware of any delays to your flight you must inform us as soon as possible.
On-time arrivals.If you have not contacted us one hour after your flight has landed, and we have not been able to contact you, we will assume you are not coming for your transfer and our driver will be permitted to leave the airport and continue with their schedule. You will then need to rebook and pay for a new transfer
Please contact us immediately if you are facing delays due to passport control/baggage reclaim issues.
If your flight is more than an hour late, you may be required to wait for the next available vehicle.
If your flight is more than 4 hours late, this is deemed as a cancelled booking. You will then be required to make a new booking. We will provide documentation to help you claim on your insurance.
Flights are sometimes diverted, however airlines always transport passengers to their scheduled airport. If you are later than 4 hours, the above rule applies.
If you cancel your transfer because your flight is cancelled, but this is less than 14 days before travel we will not issue a refund. Again, we will help where we can with insurance claims.
