I’ve used AZ cars many times. This occasion was just as good. Received a confirmation text after my telephone booking. The next day the driver texted to tell me he was at the pick up address, he was there 10mins early. Clean car with a pleasant driver(thank you Ahmed👍) I’ll be using AZ again for sure……

Great local company. I've been using them for years to go to the airport or for shorter journeys. They're always punctual and booking is super easy.

Great reliable service. I use them mainly for airport pickups and they are always on time. They can accommodate short notice bookings, which is helpful if plans change.

When should I book my New Year’s Eve ride home?

As early as you can. New Year’s Eve is a busy night, so pre-book your journey home and tell us roughly when you’ll want collecting. If your plans change, call us.

Can you take a group home from a Christmas party?

Do I pay extra for the airport drop-off?

No, it’s in the price we quote. The only time an airport adds more is when a drop-off goes past its standard time. When we collect you from an airport, an airport car-parking charge is included.

We don’t have wheelchair-accessible vehicles in the fleet. Folding wheelchairs, other mobility aids and assistance dogs travel at no charge, so just tell us what you’re bringing. More in our accessibility terms.

Can I change or cancel my booking?

Let us know by phone or WhatsApp straight away. There’s no cancellation fee with at least 24 hours’ notice, and we refund your fare less any non-refundable admin fee. Shorter notice may be charged, as set out in our booking terms.
