6. Windsor Suite (VVIP Tarmac Service) – Special Terms

The Windsor Suite is Heathrow VIP’s most exclusive offering – a fully private terminal suite at London Heathrow Airport that bypasses the public terminal entirely. The following special terms apply exclusively to Windsor Suite bookings and are accepted unconditionally upon booking.

6.1 Service Scope

The Windsor Suite service provides the following as standard:

  • Private VIP suite with elegant seating, dining area, workspace, restroom, optional shower, Wi-Fi, entertainment, and climate control
  • Dedicated personal butler service throughout the duration of the stay
  • In-suite check-in: travel documents and baggage collected, boarding passes and bag tags issued within the suite
  • In-suite private security screening (including luggage and body scan) conducted discreetly within the suite – no public checkpoints, no contact with other passengers
  • In-suite immigration and passport control conducted by a UK Border Force officer within the private suite – no public immigration areas or queues
  • Gourmet dining and premium beverages, including à la carte dining throughout the stay
  • Luxury tarmac vehicle transfer (chauffeur-driven BMW 7 Series or equivalent) directly between the private suite and the aircraft
  • Priority baggage handling directly to or from the suite
  • Ground transport coordination with personal chauffeur, hotel, or driver at the private Windsor Suite entrance

The Windsor Suite is available for departures, arrivals, and flight connections.

6.2 Connecting Flights

For passengers connecting between flights, the Windsor Suite provides a private vehicle transfer airside from the arriving aircraft to the suite, full hospitality throughout the connection period, immigration processing where required, luggage coordination, and airline re-check-in – all managed by the Heathrow VIP team behind the scenes.

6.3 Vehicle & Resource Pre-Confirmation

Upon receipt of a Windsor Suite booking, Heathrow VIP immediately arranges and confirms the private suite, dedicated butler, luxury vehicle, and professional driver based on the flight details and schedule provided at the time of booking. These resources are reserved exclusively for the booked service and all associated costs are committed from the moment of confirmation.

6.4 Aircraft Parking Position

The final parking position of an aircraft at London Heathrow – whether at a remote stand (tarmac area) or at a jet bridge/airbridge connected to the terminal building – is determined exclusively by Heathrow Airport operations and the relevant airline authorities. This determination is typically confirmed approximately 15 to 20 minutes before landing and is entirely beyond the control or influence of Heathrow VIP.

  • Remote Stand (Tarmac): If the aircraft parks at a remote stand, the Windsor Suite tarmac vehicle transfer will be delivered as confirmed, including luxury vehicle transport between the aircraft and the private suite.
  • Jet Bridge / Airbridge: If the aircraft parks at a jet bridge or airbridge, the tarmac vehicle transfer element of the Windsor Suite service cannot be delivered, as Heathrow Airport safety and security regulations strictly prohibit vehicle access to such areas.

6.5 No Refund for Jet Bridge Parking

⚠ CRITICAL NOTICE: As Heathrow VIP pre-confirms the suite, vehicle, driver, butler, and all associated arrangements at the time of reservation, no refund, reschedule, partial credit, or compensation of any kind will be offered in the event that the Windsor Suite tarmac vehicle transfer cannot be delivered due to the aircraft parking at a jet bridge, airbridge, or any other restricted zone. This no-refund position applies regardless of whether the change in parking position occurs at short notice or without prior warning.

6.6 Client Acknowledgement – Windsor Suite

By completing a Windsor Suite booking, the client expressly confirms their understanding and irrevocable acceptance that:

  • The inability to provide the tarmac vehicle transfer due to the aircraft’s parking position does not qualify for a refund, compensation, or reschedule of any kind.
  • All arrangements are made in good faith based solely on the flight details provided by the client at the time of booking.
  • The aircraft parking position is determined entirely by Heathrow Airport authorities and the relevant airline and is wholly beyond Heathrow VIP’s control.

6.7 Windsor Suite – Cancellation & Rescheduling

Cancellation and rescheduling terms for the Windsor Suite are set out in full in Section 11.


 

7. Operational Service Process – Timing, Stations & Meeting Points

7.1 Departure Services – Meeting Time

For all departure services, the confirmed meeting time is exactly 2 (two) hours before the scheduled flight departure time. Each booking covers a 2-hour service window. Any time required beyond the 2-hour service window will be charged separately at the applicable additional hourly rate and is subject to staff availability.

7.2 Arrival Services – Meeting Point

Our representative will meet the passenger at the earliest permitted location based on real-time Heathrow Airport and airline authority approvals at the time of service. The representative will then escort the passenger through all required arrival formalities as efficiently as possible, in full compliance with Heathrow Airport regulations and UK Border Force directives.

For Windsor Suite arrivals, the passenger is met directly at the aircraft door via a luxury tarmac vehicle (subject to aircraft parking position – see Section 6.4) and transported directly to the private suite, bypassing the public terminal entirely.

7.3 Early Arrival at Meeting Point

If a client arrives at the confirmed meeting point earlier than the scheduled service time, Heathrow VIP is not obligated to commence service early. If an agent is available, early assistance may be provided at Heathrow VIP’s sole discretion. Otherwise, the client must wait until the confirmed service time. No compensation will be provided for waiting time resulting from a passenger’s early arrival.


 

8. Greeter & Agent Contact Policy

All communication relating to a booked service must be directed exclusively to Heathrow VIP through our official contact channels. Clients must not attempt to contact greeters, agents, drivers, or on-ground staff directly.

8.1 Official Contact Channels

8.2 Greeter Contact Release

Heathrow VIP does not share greeter or agent contact details in advance. Contact details may be released at Heathrow VIP’s sole discretion as follows:

  • Up to 1 (one) hour before a scheduled arrival service.
  • Up to 3 (three) hours before a scheduled departure service.

Release of contact details is subject to Heathrow VIP’s operational discretion and is not guaranteed.

8.3 Agent Availability

Greeters and on-ground agents primarily use radio communication during active operations at Heathrow Airport and are frequently unavailable to receive direct telephone calls. Clients must always contact Heathrow VIP directly rather than attempting to reach on-ground staff.

8.4 Policy Violation – Direct Contact

Any client, passenger, or booking party who attempts to contact a greeter, agent, or on-ground staff member directly – bypassing Heathrow VIP’s official communication channels – will be considered in violation of these Policies. In such cases, Heathrow VIP reserves the right to immediately cancel the service without refund and with full charges applied.

  • No refund will be issued.

  • Heathrow VIP will not be held responsible for non-provision of service in such circumstances.

9.5 Airline-Related Delays

Heathrow VIP is not responsible for delays caused by airlines, flight schedule changes, air traffic control decisions, or any other airline or authority-related circumstance. No exceptions to the No-Show or waiting time policy will be made on the basis of airline-related delays. It is the client’s responsibility to monitor flight status and notify Heathrow VIP promptly of any confirmed changes.


 

10. Changes, Rescheduling & Flight Amendments

10.1 Client-Initiated Changes

Heathrow VIP will endeavour to accommodate amendments to confirmed bookings, including changes to passenger names, passenger counts, flight details, terminal, and scheduled times, subject to:

  • Operational availability and partner capacity at the time of the request.

Heathrow VIP is not responsible for such changes but will use reasonable efforts to assist within the limits set by these Policies.

10.3 Effect of Flight Changes on Service Availability

If a passenger changes their flight or updates its timing after booking confirmation, this directly affects the scheduled service. All such changes are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed. The specific consequences are detailed in Section 11.4.

11.7 Windsor Suite – Non-Refundable (Aircraft Parking Position)

  • A refund of 75% of the base service amount will be processed to the original payment method within 5–7 business days; or

13. Duplicate Booking Policy

13.1 Definition

A duplicate booking is defined as any instance where a client, passenger, or third party acting on their behalf makes more than one booking for the same passenger for identical or substantially similar services at London Heathrow Airport on the same date and time.

13.2 Non-Refund of Duplicate Bookings Within 72 Hours

Where a duplicate booking is identified within 72 (seventy-two) hours of the scheduled service or departure time, no refund, cancellation credit, or compensation of any kind will be provided for any of the duplicate bookings. This position is firm and non-negotiable, as the services will have been confirmed, resources secured, and associated operational costs incurred.

13.3 Duplicate Bookings Outside 72 Hours

For duplicate bookings identified and cancelled outside the 72-hour window, a minimum deduction of 25% of the total booking amount with 5% CC (Credit Card Fee) will apply as an administrative and processing fee. Under no circumstances will a full (100%) refund be issued for a duplicate booking cancellation.

13.4 Client Responsibility

The client acknowledges and agrees that it is their sole responsibility to ensure the accuracy and uniqueness of each booking at the time of confirmation. Heathrow VIP will not be held liable for any losses, damages, or claims arising from duplicate bookings made by the client or any third party acting on their behalf.


 

14. Third-Party Bookings

14.1 Binding Effect

If a booking is made on behalf of a passenger by a travel agent, tour operator, company representative, personal assistant, family member, friend, or any other third party, the booking and all terms and conditions contained in these Policies are fully binding on the passenger and all relevant parties.

14.2 Information Accuracy

The person making the booking is solely responsible for providing complete, accurate, and up-to-date information, including passenger names, contact details, flight information, terminal, travel details, and any special requirements. Heathrow VIP relies exclusively on the information provided at the time of booking and will not be held responsible for any failure, error, or degradation of service resulting from incorrect, incomplete, or missing information provided by a third-party booker.

14.3 Authorised Payment

If a passenger’s credit card or payment method is used to fund a booking made by a third party, the passenger expressly confirms that the third party is fully authorised to act on their behalf with respect to that booking and all associated financial obligations.

14.4 Dispute Resolution

Where any issue arises in connection with the booking process – including incorrect information, missed communications, booking errors, or other matters attributable to the third-party booker – the passenger must resolve such issues directly with the travel agent or person who made the booking. Heathrow VIP is not responsible for errors, omissions, miscommunications, or other acts or omissions of travel agents or third-party bookers.

14.5 Chargeback Prohibition

By using Heathrow VIP’s services, passengers and cardholders unconditionally agree not to file chargebacks, payment disputes, or bank reversals against Heathrow VIP for any issues resulting from the actions, errors, or omissions of a travel agent or third-party booker. All such disputes must be resolved directly with the booking party.

14.6 Cancellation Terms Apply Equally

All cancellation, refund, and No-Show policies contained in these Policies apply equally to third-party bookings without exception:

  • No cancellations within 72 hours for all Airport Services and Windsor Suite services.
  • No cancellations within 24 hours for Car / Chauffeur Services.

 

15. Fast-Track Service – Terminal Rules & Limitations

Fast-track immigration and security access at London Heathrow Airport is subject to the rules, real-time availability, and decisions of Heathrow Airport Limited and the applicable terminal operator. The following rules apply without exception.

Heathrow VIP does not guarantee fast-track access and accepts no liability for changes to fast-track availability, lane access, or processing times. The decision to grant or deny fast-track access rests solely with Heathrow Airport authorities and security agencies.


 

16. Baggage Assistance Policy

  • The standard Meet & Greet service includes complimentary baggage assistance for up to 3 (three) items of luggage as part of the greeter service.
  • Passengers travelling with more than 3 items of luggage are required to book and pay for porter service at the time of booking. If porter service has not been pre-booked, the greeter will be unable to assist with luggage beyond the 3-item complimentary allowance. This ensures appropriate staffing is arranged in advance.
  • Additional passengers or additional luggage beyond the quantities confirmed in the Service Order will incur supplementary charges. Refusal to pay applicable additional charges may result in the service being modified or terminated, with full charges applying to the original booked service.
  • For Windsor Suite guests, all baggage handling – including check-in, tagging, and delivery to or from the private suite – is included as part of the Windsor Suite package.
  • Heathrow VIP and its staff are not responsible for loss, damage, or delay to baggage caused by airline handling, Heathrow Airport baggage systems, security screening, or third-party porter services.

 

17. Wheelchair Assistance Policy

17.1 Provider

Wheelchair assistance at London Heathrow Airport is provided exclusively by the operating airline or by Heathrow Airport Limited’s own accessibility services. Heathrow VIP does not supply, own, or operate wheelchairs and cannot provide wheelchair assistance independently.

17.2 Client Obligation – Advance Airline Arrangement

Any passenger requiring wheelchair assistance must:

  • Request wheelchair service directly with the airline well in advance of travel.
  • Ensure that the wheelchair request is formally added to the flight booking (PNR) and is visible and confirmed within the airport’s operational system before the date of travel.

17.3 Consequences of Failure to Pre-Arrange

  • If a passenger requires wheelchair assistance but has failed to request it through the airline in advance, Heathrow VIP will be unable to provide or coordinate wheelchair assistance under any circumstances.
  • Heathrow VIP’s on-ground team can only coordinate wheelchair facilitation once the wheelchair service is confirmed and registered by the airline within the Heathrow Airport operational system.
  • Where wheelchair assistance is required but not properly pre-arranged with the airline, the relevant service may be considered a No-Show and will be non-refundable.

17.4 Additional Greeter Requirement

Passengers who require wheelchair assistance must book an additional greeter agent to accompany and coordinate the wheelchair service. Wheelchair facilitation by Heathrow VIP cannot be confirmed or guaranteed without the booking of an additional accompanying agent.

17.5 Responsibility

The sole responsibility for ensuring wheelchair assistance is properly arranged with the airline prior to travel rests entirely with the passenger or booking party. Heathrow VIP accepts no liability for any failure, inconvenience, or additional costs arising from the failure to pre-arrange wheelchair assistance with the airline.


 

18. Client Responsibilities

By placing a booking with Heathrow VIP, the client and/or booking party accepts full responsibility for the following:

  • Accuracy of Information: Providing complete, accurate, and current information at the time of booking, including passenger names, flight details, terminal, scheduled times, passenger counts, luggage information, and contact numbers.
