STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
ChamonixFirst and its partner websites are all subsidiary companies of Haute Pursuit SARL (Haute Transfer, Cham Van & ChamonixFirst)
All transfers, private and shared, cancelled within 48 hours of departure, are fully refundable or transferable. All bookings will be entered as shared unless a private transfer has been requested. This means that you may be sharing a van with other clients arriving at a similar time.
We do our best to accommodate flight delays where necessary. However, if your flight is delayed, and waiting for you compromises our obligations to other clients, it may become necessary for us to leave the airport before your arrival. In this case we will make every effort to accommodate you on the next available transfer but this may involve some waiting time on your part and it may also incur additional charges.
In a situation where we are unable to accommodate the new arrival time following a flight delay, the client will be required to make alternative arrangements and no refund will be provided for the original transfer booking. In this case, clients are advised to check the terms of their travel insurance. We will, of course, keep you informed at all times. Due to the flexible nature of shared transfers, we are unable to provide guaranteed pick-up times for these bookings.
If you miss your flight or your flight is delayed you must contact us immediately on our transfer office number +33 (0)4 80 80 61 88. Please do not make other arrangements without talking to us first, as we will not be held responsible for any costs incurred.
If you have excess baggage/bulky items, please advise us at the time of booking.
We will take all reasonable care in the loading and carriage of luggage; however we accept no responsibility for items lost or luggage damaged in transit. You are advised to check the terms of your travel insurance policy. All luggage must be clearly labelled with the owners name and address. In the event of a passenger having excess luggage without giving prior notice, we reserve the right to not transport the item(s).
The client is responsible for the information provided when making a booking. Please check your booking information carefully and ensure that it is correct. If you need to make any changes to your reservation, please notify us immediately by email or by telephone.
Clients are advised to provide a means of contact, preferably a mobile telephone number that is switched on, has global-roaming enabled, and has sufficient battery life.
Where a booking is made by telephone or by email, the booking is subject to the acceptance of these terms and conditions, which is automatically assumed in the process of making the booking.
For all bookings, full payment must be made at the time of booking.
We reserve the right to change pick up times from resort and will inform you or your resort representative by telephone call or SMS at 17h00 (CET) the night before travel.
We maintain the right to cancel your booking at any time if it feels it will be unable to supply you with the service you have requested in a correct manner.
