Pricing FAQs
Do you charge extra if my flight is delayed?
We track your flight and adjust pickup times. A reasonable waiting buffer is included; longer delays may incur standard waiting time (we’ll confirm this in your quote).
Are the prices different at night or on bank holidays?
Evening/bank holiday tariffs and larger vehicles can vary. We’ll confirm your fixed fare at booking so there are no surprises.
Is Uber cheaper than booking a local taxi in Cornwall?
Not always. Uber can use surge pricing during peak times, whereas our fares are fixed and transparent.
