VI From the back seat
Two recent runs to Manchester.
“
Booked an early-morning pickup out of Roundhay for our flight to Malaga. The price was confirmed the night before and the car was parked on the road with the boot open before I had locked the front door. Fixed price, paid card in the car, dropped us right at T2.

We had three big cases and a buggy and were nervous about whether it would all fit. Whiterose confirmed it before booking and the price was the price, no add-ons sprung at the end.

VII Frequent Questions
Answered straight, before you ask.
If your question is not here, send it on WhatsApp. The reply is from me, not a chatbot.
01 How much luggage fits for a Manchester run?
The Auris Estate takes three full-size cases and three carry-ons comfortably. For four adults with a full set of large cases, mention it on WhatsApp and I will confirm in writing before the booking goes in the diary.
02 Can you fit a baby or child seat?
Yes, included at no extra charge. A Group 1 seat and a high-back booster live in the boot. Send the child’s age and weight on WhatsApp and the right one will be fitted before pickup.
03 What happens if my return flight is delayed?
I track the inbound flight from your booking reference. The Manchester collection slides to the actual landing time, not the scheduled one. There is no waiting fee for delays outside your control, and the first hour of post-landing wait is included free.
04 How do I pay the £70-£75?
In the car at the end of the journey: card, contactless, Apple Pay or Google Pay. No deposit is taken for one-off bookings. Bank transfer is available for account customers and corporate bookings.
05 What is the cancellation policy?
Free cancellation any time more than 24 hours before pickup. Inside 24 hours, half the agreed fare. Inside two hours of pickup, the full fare. I send a confirmation the day before in case anything has changed at your end.
