Common questions about our chauffeur car service

Chauffeur driven cars are available to and from all airports we fly to, except Havana and Lagos. 

Anyone flying on a  Virgin Atlantic flight you can book one, there'll just be charge for that. You can book a car in My booking or contact us for a quote regardless of the cabin you're travelling in or your booking class.

If you've made an Upper Class reward booking with Virgin points it doesn't come with complimentary ground transfers. You can add a saloon/sedan chauffeur car to any destination in the UK or US within 75 driven miles from the airport with Virgin points.

Please note: On February 14th 2023 we updated our policies to say that chauffeur service was no Longer available in the US to book using points.

If booking using Virgin Points you'll be able to book a saloon/sedan car option only. Unfortunately there is no upgrade option available if paying using points.

We're sorry. For now it's just Virgin Atlantic flights.

Unfortunately not. No excess can be paid to increase the mileage range.

Yes, you will receive an emailed confirmation of your car booking within 12 hours after booking. We'll send it to the email address you provide, make sure you check your junk mail folders if you haven't received it after 12 hours. You can also check the details of any of your chauffeur car bookings in My Booking.

To the airport

There'll be a minimum pick-up time to make sure you arrive at the airport in plenty of time. This is the time the drive will take, plus 90 minutes before your flight. Eg. if your flight departs at 10am and it will take an hour to get to the airport, then the latest you can book your car for is 7.30 am.

If you like to arrive at the airport a bit earlier no problem. Select your preferred pick up time from the dropdown when you book your car online.

From the airport

We'll automatically arrange your pick up time perfectly for when your flight arrives, but if you'd like to be picked up later just select your preferred time.

Yes, you'll need to change your car booking too as it won't be automatically amended.

A standard car is the equivalent to a Mercedes E-Class or similar. In the UK you can request an Estate car which has a slightly larger luggage capacity (4 checked bags instead of 3).

Larger cars are available for an extra charge. If you need one please contact our team by Whatsapp, text or phone (details below).

A standard car fits 3 people and 3 checked in bags max. An Estate car (available UK only) fits 3 people and 4 pieces of checked  luggage.

All your check in luggage needs to fit safely in the boot, but you're welcome to keep your hand luggage with you in the vehicle if there's room.

Sure, you can take other people who are travelling to or from the same airport, to or from the same address up to the capacity of the car, as long as all your luggage fits safely in the boot. We won't be able to get you a bigger car to accommodate more people.

Sure, so long as the address is en-route and it's convenient for both of you. We just might need to adjust the pick up times a bit.

Yes, absolutely. If you're bringing your own child seat, you'll need to make sure that it is correctly installed when you get in the car. Please note, the driver can refuse travel if the seat doesn't comply to legal standards.

You can add special requests using the chauffeur car booking tool in My booking. We'll need at least 12 hours notice before your pick up time and we'll do our best to accommodate you, but we can't always guarantee it

Sure! But there might be an additional charge. For more info on travelling to the airport with a pet or support animal, please please contact our team by Whatsapp, text or phone (details below).

Sorry if our booking tool isn't working. Try refreshing the page or giving it another try later.

Common questions after your journey

If you think you've left something behind in your chauffeur car please contact our team by Whatsapp, text or phone (details below). They'll contact the car company directly on your behalf.

If we don't find the item and you'd like to claim for it on your insurance, we can give you written confirmation that we've searched for it. There might be a charge from our lost property handlers.

Please check with your insurer first that this 'confirmation of search' letter will be enough proof of your loss for their requirements.

When you make a chauffeur car booking you agree to the following:

Chauffeur car transfer services are provided by third party service providers, and in making these arrangements Virgin Atlantic is only acting as agent. As such, the exact terms and conditions of the third party service providers apply, but we'd like to make you aware that 

  1. You will be responsible for any excess charges incurred and must pay these directly to the driver or third party service provider upon completion of the journey.     
  2. Cancellations must be made at least three hours prior to the pick-up time. Failure to do so may result in you being ineligible to make future use of the chauffeur car service, as Virgin Atlantic will still be charged by the third party service provider. 
  3. The third party service provider may refuse carriage of child passengers if appropriate child seats have not been requested in the booking or are not being supplied by you. In each case you will be responsible for ensuring that all child seats are fitted correctly. 
  4. Failure to state the correct number of passengers and/or the correct number of items of luggage in the booking may result in a car of the incorrect size being sent to the pick-up location. 
  5. The third party service provider will not be obliged to make any diversions and/or stops which haven't been specified in the booking. 
  6. You may be charged extra for waiting time, up to a specific cut-off point after which the car may cease waiting. 
  7. While a third party service provider will try to accommodate any special requests, these can't be guaranteed.

Please note: you must wear a face covering in a location that requires you too. Please check before you travel.
