Flight delays or early arrivals might affect your hotel or airport pick-up: Tourist transportation operations are meticulously planned daily based on pre-established flight schedules found in customer reservations. Any delays or early arrival in flights can disrupt the flow of operations and impact customer pick-ups.

Mechanical issues during transfers: DAT does not provide reimbursement for little problems like brief car damage. DAT manages unexpected events quickly and efficiently without the need for additional reimbursement, particularly if the problem is fixed right away and a different vehicle is sent to complete the transfer in accordance with the client's agreement.
