Capacity is not one universal number
Advertised capacity may not account for luggage, mobility devices, child-seat plans, or the comfort level your group expects. Provide the passenger count and baggage details, then ask the provider to confirm the appropriate vehicle in writing.
Accessibility and event constraints
Disclose accessibility needs before accepting a quote. Also mention narrow streets, gated entries, loading zones, venue restrictions, airport terminals, trailers, oversized luggage, and planned onboard activities.
Ready for an exact trip quote?
Share your date, pickup plan, destination, passenger count, vehicle preference, and accessibility needs. Ask for the full written total and cancellation terms before paying.
Frequently asked questions
Is a 14-passenger vehicle right for 14 airport travelers?
Not necessarily. Luggage can reduce usable capacity, so provide bag counts before choosing.
Are amenities guaranteed by vehicle category?
No. Ask for the amenities and restrictions attached to the specific quoted vehicle.
Should I book the smallest possible vehicle?
Choose a vehicle that safely fits people, luggage, access needs, and the desired comfort level.
