COVID 19
The organization of road passenger transport activities requires strong adaptations in order to prevent the Covid-19 epidemic. To reduce the risk of contamination and ensure the health and safety of our employees and customers, the wearing of a surgical mask or FFP2 is recommended in the front and back of the vehicle in case of flu symptoms. Customers are asked not to touch the handles of the vehicle and to let the driver open or close the doors. Hydroalcoholic gel is available on board.


TIME, DURATION AND PLACE OF PERFORMANCE
The timetables are defined according to normal traffic conditions and the course of transport. The client is aware that unforeseen events may occur. The definition of a safety margin will make it possible to absorb these hazards, knowing that if it is exceeded, it risks upsetting the organisation of the journey, which must always guarantee compliance with the regulations on driving times and driver rest periods.
The vehicles are hired for a specific service, therefore, except in exceptional cases, we will not make any other route than the one agreed. The choice of route, unless the client has specific requirements, must be left to the transporter and will always be based on the shortest or fastest route. It is the carrier's responsibility to inform the client of this before the start of the service. The execution times are given as an indication and approximate unless the company Corse VTC makes a formal commitment.
The service begins on the day, at the time and from the place agreed between the client and the company Corse VTC and ends once the destination is reached.
IN-SERVICE MODIFICATION
Any modification requested by the client during the course of the service will necessarily entail a supplement if, and only if, the distance or the time of the service initially planned is extended. The company Corse VTC reserves the right to refuse all modifications of itineraries if this risks compromising other clients or services already reserved at the time of the transport.
GCV & REGULATIONS
Our services are payable in advance at the time of booking or on the day of the service following prior agreement, except for "professional" clients.
