Airport & ground transfers

Pick the vehicle. The price holds.

600+ airports and city points · 50,000+ vetted drivers

This is not a taxi meter. You choose the class, we confirm the net, and that figure does not move when the flight is late or the bags are heavy. Private or shared, sedan to coach, airport to hotel or city to city — booked on the same account as the room.

  • Fixed at bookingThe quoted net is the charged net. No greeting-sign surcharge.
  • Flight is watchedA delay moves the driver. Waiting time after landing is already in the rate.
  • Meet and greetName board in arrivals as standard on private jobs. Luggage to the car.
  • Every party sizeStandard through coach, plus accessible. Hourly hire when the day is open.

Transfers in detail

Rail reservation

Discover Europe by train

Passes, reserved seats, night trains, e-tickets · hotel on the same invoice

City centre to city centre on high-speed and regional networks. Sell an open pass when the client wants to decide as they go, or a specific train and a reserved seat when the route is fixed. Compulsory reservations on high-speed and night services are booked with the ticket — not left for the platform.

  • Passes when it is openMulti-country and single-country, issued before departure.
  • Seats when it is fixedPoint-to-point: the train, the class, the reservation together.
  • Reservations handledHigh-speed and night supplements booked at the desk, not at the gate.
  • One confirmationRail, the hotel at the other end, and the transfer from the station.

AI Itinerary

A brief in. A costed plan out.

A full AI itinerary engine is already on this account. Describe the trip the way a client describes it. The system returns day-wise plans, sightseeing slotted into each day, travel time between stops, then compares those plans against the brief and ranks the best match.

  • Day-wiseA structured plan for every day, not a destination dump.
  • Sightseeing-wiseExperiences placed where they fit the route and the clock.
  • ComparedSeveral options scored against pace, budget and the brief.
  • BookableBuilt from live net inventory on this account, then editable.

API Hub Connect

One integration. Every product line.

Plug HCGL into the engine you already run. Hotels, sightseeing, transfers, rail and dining share one contract, one credential set and one certification path — search, book, amend and cancel without a second supplier login.

Why agencies switch

Built for the way agents actually work

A global reservation system without the fees, delays and re-confirmations that quietly eat your margin.

  • One-click booking

    Search, compare and confirm in a single flow. No re-keying, no waiting on an email chain.

  • Zero gateway charges*

    What you see is what you pay. No card surcharge shaved off your commission at settlement.

  • Deadlines up front

    Every rate line carries its cancellation date, filterable before you ever quote a client.

  • 24×7 human support

    A named account manager plus an operations desk that answers mid-trip, in two time zones.

  • Trade-only pricing

    Agency promotions on hotels, experiences and packages, refreshed weekly and never public.

  • DMC on the ground

    Fifteen years of ground handling behind the database — routing, timing and venue advice included.
