Contactless Travel

Driving touch-free travel confidence

Contactless travel is our own concept. It keeps contact between passengers and chauffeurs down to a bare minimum. The protocol puts the chauffeur in charge of the passenger. Building on and exceeding the Department of Transport’s new guidance, our world-leading road map to safer private chauffeur hire.
