Picking up guests from airport
Picking up guests from airport
Does anyone know whether one needs to have a special car insurance when picking guests up from the airport?
If the situation is the same as in the UK, you need more than just appropriate insurance; you'd be regarded as providing a taxi service (whether paid for or not) so you need a taxi operating licence, taxi specific insurance, taxi specific MOT test on the vehicle, and lots more red tape I've probably forgotten.
It's a different situation if you are "helping out in an emergency" on a one-off basis, but that wouldn't apply if you had agreed in advance to pick them up.
