Special Circumstances

We understand that emergencies and unexpected situations occur. If you have extenuating circumstances (medical emergency, flight cancellation, natural disaster, etc.), please contact us directly. We evaluate each case individually and may offer exceptions to our standard refund policy.

Promotional Credits

In some cases, instead of a monetary refund, we may offer promotional credits for future rides. These credits:

  • Never expire
  • Can be used for any future booking
  • Are non-transferable
  • Will be applied automatically at checkout
