Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Are car seats provided on transfers?

Car seats are not a legal requirement for your overseas coach transfers, so they’re not something we’ll usually provide. It’s also worth noting that in some destinations they’re not required for taxi transfers either. If you’d like to take your own car seat, you can check this in with your hold baggage at the airport – it won’t count towards your luggage allowance.
If you’d like us to provide a car seat once you reach your destination, this can be requested but it’s not guaranteed. Give us a call on 0203 451 2690 and we can check this out for you.

Why do I need to pay extra for my transfers?

Whether you’re making your own way to your hotel, you want to stick to your budget with a coach transfer or go all out with a private taxi, we believe that you should only pay for what you need, which is why transfers aren’t automatically included in most of our holidays. If you need transfers, you can add them when you book, or you can give us a call to add them to an existing booking.

How long is my transfer? Where can I find that information?

You’ll be able to see the location of your hotel on our website – on the info page for your hotel or on the holiday details page as you click through to book. The length of your journey depends on your transfer type – if you’re taking a taxi, the drive time will give you a pretty good estimate. If you’re taking a coach, the drive time should give you a ballpark, but this might be impacted by other hotel drop-offs.

How will I find my taxi when I arrive in resort?

In most airports our international TUI team will be available to meet you at the airport, you will find them by looking out for the blue TUI uniform. They will direct you to your private transfer driver.
In some airports your driver will be waiting for you directly with your name displayed on a board – look out for the TUI smile.

How will I find my coach transfer when I arrive in resort?

Download the First Choice app before you go and you’ll be able to see your coach number. When you arrive, you’ll be greeted by TUI’s destination team or your driver – look out for the TUI Smile.

Will a Rep meet me at the Airport?

If you booked a transfer with us, you’ll be greeted by a rep at the airport, just look out for the TUI Smile

Is there an age limit for car hire?

For most countries, you need to be aged 21 or over to drive a hire car – for Turkey, you will need to be 22 or over. You may also need to pay a young driver surcharge, which usually applies if you’re under 25 years old. Please note that there is also a maximum age limit for rental cars – this is 70 years old in most countries.
