Special Event Premiums

Please note 1.

  1. The premium will be added as an extra charge over and above the calculated base rate of a trip. Provided the trip type selection is made during booking the system will automatically add the premium at the time of booking. Drivision Australia reserves the right to refuse a booking that has not had the correct type chosen or to agree with the client to edit the booking form accordingly so that the accurate cost is reflected.

  2. Please note, for your reference, the premiums exist in order to enable us to secure a transfer during times when demand is very high and prices very competitive. Drivers are not willing to do low cost work when demand is high and other customers are willing to pay a premium.

  3. The premiums indicated below are carefully crafted after years of experimentation on how much premium needs to be added in order to guarantee a transfer as requested by customers at various events.
