What do I do when I arrive in the UK?

WHERE DO YOU GO AND HOW DO YOU FIND YOUR DRIVER ?

Due to UK airport security measures, it is not possible to collect from the terminals without authorisation from the designated authority responsible for coach and bus transportation within the airport grounds.

Coaches must check in at the airport coach park where they are held until the terminal marshals have authorised a permit for their release. As a result of this procedure you may experience a brief delay in your coach arriving at the terminal.

If you have not arranged for a meet and greet service to meet you in the arrivals lounge, make your way out to the charter coach collection bays. Please ensure your entire group are together as the terminal marshals will not allow excessive waiting on the terminal.

Each airport has its own individual procedure for this process, so we have provided more guidance below.
