Changes or cancellations within 48 hours of the agreed-upon time of transportation must be promptly communicated to the emergency telephone number provided in the booking confirmation email. Otherwise, the change is not guaranteed, and neither taxi-airports-transfer.com/it nor the carrier will be liable, and penalties for failure to cancel may apply.

In the event that changes require a new fare, for example due to the need for a different vehicle or for any other reason, the customer agrees to pay the new fare in full.
5.2 General Booking Cancellation or Modification Policy
Up to 24 hours before the transfer: no charge if the booking was made online, payment is made to the driver, and the booked vehicle is not a minibus or bus. Otherwise, a charge of up to 15% of the transfer price may be applied for bookings made by phone, email, custom transfers, prepaid transfers, minibus or bus transfers (minimum charge of €35).
b) Less than 24 hours before arrival: If the transfer cannot be managed or a new agreement with the local operator is not reached, 100% of the total transfer cost will be applied. Last-minute changes are difficult to manage.
c) In any case, after the driver has departed from his/her location or if the customer does not show up for pick-up: 100% of the transfer price will be charged.
d) Cancellation terms: For any vehicle with more than 8 seats (coaches and minibuses) or for bookings involving the use of more than one vehicle, regardless of passenger capacity, cancellation requests must be made 72 hours prior to the pickup time.
e) For round-trip reservations with a discount (Promo rate), cancellation of the return journey only is not possible once the outward journey has been completed.
5.2a Last-minute bookings received within 48 hours of the scheduled pickup time: Bookings received within 48 hours of the scheduled pickup time cannot be canceled and will incur a 100% late cancellation fee. We accept bookings up to two years in advance, so we encourage you to book as early as possible to take full advantage of our extremely flexible cancellation policies, as outlined above. Last-minute requests received very quickly require greater effort and additional costs on both our part and the service provider, making free cancellation of these types of bookings impossible.
5.2b In the event of a significant flight delay that prevents us from guaranteeing your pick-up and results in a cancellation, you will be entitled to a refund, subject to a minimum cancellation fee of 35%. For last-minute bookings (bookings received within 48 hours of the scheduled pick-up time), a minimum cancellation fee of 45% will apply.
