Sıkça Sorulan Sorular

Transfer rezervasyonu yaparken en önemli kriterler nelerdir?

En önemli kriterler: firma lisansı, online yorumlar, şoför bilgileri, araç detayları, acil iletişim numarası ve güvenli ödeme seçenekleridir. Bu bilgilerin tamamı sağlanmayan firmaları tercih etmeyin.

Gece saatlerinde transfer alırken nelere dikkat etmeliyim?

Gece transferleri için mutlaka önceden rezervasyon yapın, karşılama tabelası olan firmalar seçin, aydınlık alanlarda bekleyin ve seyahat rotasını yakınlarınızla paylaşın. Ayrıca acil durum numaralarını hazır bulundurun.

Transfer sırasında şüpheli durumla karşılaştığımda ne yapmalıyım?

Şüpheli durumlarda önce sakin kalın, mümkünse aracı güvenli bir yerde durdurmalarını isteyin, 112 acil hattını arayın ve konumunuzu yakınlarınıza bildirin. Gerekirse aracı terk etmekten çekinmeyin.

Lisanslı transfer firmasını nasıl ayırt edebilirim?

Lisanslı firmalar TÜRSAB üyelik belgesi, turistik işletme ruhsatı ve vergi levhasına sahiptir. Web sitelerinde bu belgelerin numaraları yazılıdır. Araçlarında da lisans numaraları bulunur.
