In the booking process, the CLIENT must define the location of departure and arrival and whether the trip is a round-trip or a one-way trip, must also select the departure date and TIME OF LAST DROP-OFF or TIME OF FIRST PICK-UP, as well as select the number of PASSENGERS by correctly selecting the number of adults, children and infants.

A child is a person between the ages of 2 years and 12 years or less. An infant is a person between the ages of 0 and 2 years old. If there are children or infants among the PASSENGERS, the CARRIER shall provide, also for a fee, an adequate number of child and/or infant seats in relation to the number of children and/or infants selected in the reservation process. If the CLIENT does not select the correct number of children and/or infants in the reservation process, INTERMEDIARY shall not be obligated to initiate and complete the transportation brokerage for either the child or infant or their guardian and INTERMEDIARY shall not be liable for any damages to the CLIENT/PASSENGER that may result.

During the booking process, the CLIENT must enter the following information about the PASSENGERS: first name, last name, cell phone number, email address, and departure and arrival locations (if necessary and if different from those originally chosen) for each PASSENGER.

If the reservation is made for more than 8 people, the CLIENT may, in the reservation process, enter only the information for the first PASSENGER or the information for all PASSENGERS. If the CLIENT were to enter only the information for the first PASSENGER, the first PASSENGER must bring a list of all PASSENGERS with him/her and turn it in to the driver on the day of transportation. The first PASSENGER stated in the order is the owner of the reservation and is considered to be the one who has been authorized by the COMMITTEE and the other PASSENGERS to modify the transportation for all PASSENGERS or for an individual PASSENGER.

Otherwise, the CLIENT shall be liable for any damages to the INTERMEDIARY.

In the case of booking the transport intermediation for an airport or other places from which the PASSENGER continues the journey by other forms of transport, the calculation of the TIME OF THE LAST DROP-OFF or, in case of return, the TIME OF THE FIRST PICK-UP, is of the utmost importance.

These calculations and timings are the responsibility of the CLIENT, consistent with the OTHER CARRIER’s itinerary, schedule, instructions and requirements. Taking into consideration the OTHER CARRIER’s itinerary, the COMMITTEE itself shall define the latest arrival time at the location from which the passenger is to continue travel with the OTHER CARRIER and/or define the earliest arrival time to the pick-up location from which the PASSENGER is to continue travel with the CARRIER.

INTERMEDIARY assumes no responsibility for any delays by OTHER CARRIERS or any liability for any resulting damages to the CLIENT and/or PASSENGER due to any informational calculation or due to an incorrect estimate by the CLIENT regarding the LAST DROP-OFF TIME or the FIRST PICK-UP TIME.

The INTERMEDIARY, the OTHER INTERMEDIARY and the CARRIER do not assume any responsibility for the (incorrect) choice of departure and arrival times that depend on the flight itinerary or on OTHER CARRIERS, since the arrival and departure times of OTHER CARRIERS may change and OTHER CARRIERS communicate such changes only to their own passengers.

The price of the brokerage/transportation is not fixed and depends on the type of transportation chosen by the CLIENT and the demand for services on the specified route at the specific time and date.

ARTICLE 4 – BOOKING, PAYMENT AND CONFIRMATION

After providing all required data at www.calabriashuttle.it, the CLIENT will be offered several transfer options for the selected times on the specified date.

The INTERMEDIARY negotiates two different types of transport, which differ according to the limits and characteristics of the service: PRIVATE TRANSFER and SHARED TRANSFER.

The CLIENT must select a type of transportation for each direction and register and/or log on to www.calabriashuttle.it by entering the required data and confirming that the CLIENT fully agrees with the TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CALABRIA SHUTTLE HOLIDAY and CALABRIA SHUTTLE HOLIDAY’s Privacy Policy. INTERMEDIARY shall not be obligated to broker transportation to any CLIENT who has not fully agreed to the CALABRIA SHUTTLE HOLIDAY TERMS AND CONDITIONS and CALABRIA SHUTTLE HOLIDAY Privacy Policy.

The CLIENT can then continue to the next step – payment. Payment can be made with the credit and debit cards listed on www.calabriashuttle.it. If the CLIENT saves the credit/debit card details when making a reservation, all subsequent brokerage orders can be paid with the same card without having to re-enter the card details.

ARTICLE 5 – CONCLUSION OF THE INTERMEDIATION CONTRACT

When payment is confirmed, the INTERMEDIATION CONTRACT is concluded and the INTERMEDIARY begins the Intermediation process. The CLIENT receives a VOUCHER, confirming that the transfer booking is complete. The INTERMEDIARY undertakes to carry out the intermediation process, identifies the optimal CARRIER and will ensure to the best of its ability that the selected CARRIER carries out the transport, as requested by the CLIENT, with the exception of the cases contemplated in the above Terms and Conditions of Intermediation.

INTERMEDIARY shall not broker the transportation of GROUPS OF CHILDREN or individuals under the age of fifteen (15) years without an adult chaperone or written consent of the legal guardian, nor shall INTERMEDIARY broker the transportation of animals without prior written approval of INTERMEDIARY and an accompanying janitor.

If SHARED TRANSFER is chosen, INTERMEDIARY may identify different/multiple CARRIERS to perform the transportation. The CLIENT expressly agrees that the INTERMEDIARY may arrange for different/multiple CARRIERS during a conveyance as a result of which it may be necessary for PASSENGERS, along with their luggage, to move from one vehicle to another en route to their final destinations.

ARTICLE 6 – PASSENGER NOTIFICATION AND ITINERARY

One day prior to the day of the last drop-off selected in the booking process, the PLATFORM www.calabriashuttle.it will send the CLIENT/PASSENGER a message, via SMS and/or email, indicating the travel itinerary. The itinerary will indicate a specific time and place of departure. In the event of a communications malfunction, such as of the computer system, the telephone network or the Internet connection, this shall be considered as force majeure, and the INTERMEDIARY shall not be liable in any way if the PASSENGERS do not receive the information relating to the transport.

In the event of unforeseen circumstances that result in changes to the initial reservation, INTERMEDIARY will send the PASSENGER another/new notification message containing the new information about the departure time, departure location, CARRIER and vehicle. The PASSENGER should consider the most recent message as the correct one.

INTERMEDIARY uses the PASSENGER reference data and contacts provided by the CLIENT and is not responsible or liable for the accuracy of the data. INTERMEDIARY shall have no liability for any damages that may result from the use of incorrect data or personal contacts provided by the CLIENT.

ARTICLE 7 – BAGGAGE

Each PASSENGER has the right to bring with him, free of charge and without prior notice, 2 pieces of luggage in total: one (1) small hand luggage not exceeding 10 KG and measuring 55x40x20 cm and one (1) classic hold luggage measuring 90 x 75 x 43 cm and not exceeding 30 KG. For all other baggage, it is necessary to make a request in advance. The carrier may charge a fee. The fees for specific baggage sizes depend on the type of vehicle used on the selected itinerary. In the booking process, the CLIENT must correctly specify the dimensions, the number of packages and the type of luggage, and the www.calabriashuttle.it platform will automatically calculate the eventual fee for extra luggage compared to the two (2) included.

The INTERMEDIARY and OTHER INTERMEDIARIES are not responsible, nor do they assume any liability for personal effects lost or forgotten in the vehicle.

ARTICLE 8 – CANCELLATION OF THE INTERMEDIATION CONTRACT BY THE PRINCIPAL

ARTICLE 4 – DURING TRANSPORT

Commencement of transportation is defined as the time the PASSENGER takes his/her seat in the vehicle. Prior to entering the vehicle, the driver may require the PASSENGER to present a valid ID or passport (as applicable) and the CLIENT/PASSENGER expressly agrees to this.

The end of transportation is when the PASSENGER leaves the vehicle at the location of its final destination.

Only in case of PRIVATE TRANSFERS the shortest or fastest route will always be taken, unless otherwise requested by the PASSENGERS in exchange for a fee. In the case of SHARED TRANSFERS the vehicle may stop at certain (home) addresses or other locations, this may mean that the route chosen for the final destination is not the shortest or fastest route. When it can be reasonably assumed that transportation will take longer than usual, such as in the event of forecasted bad weather, road work, foreseeable traffic jams, etc., the vehicle may depart much earlier than the scheduled departure time to ensure timely arrival of PASSENGERS at their chosen destinations, of which INTERMEDIARY will notify each PASSENGER by text message or email.

In the event that SHARED TRANSFER is chosen, the transfer may be made in cooperation with multiple carriers, which means that the PASSENGERS, along with their luggage, will have to transfer from one vehicle to another on the way to their final destinations, and the CLIENT and/or PASSENGER expressly agrees to this condition.

The driver always has the right to make a stop if it is necessary for the safety of the trip.

For all other baggage, it is necessary to make a request in advance. The carrier may charge a fee. The fees for specific baggage sizes depend on the type of vehicle used on the selected itinerary. If the size, weight and quantity of the luggage is not within the limits selected by the CLIENT at the time of booking on www.Calabriashuttle.it, or has not been checked in and paid for at least two (2) days prior to transportation, the driver has the right to refuse to transfer such luggage. All luggage must be properly packed for transportation for safety reasons and in a manner that does not damage, injure or soil other luggage and/or the vehicle in any way.
