10.2 The Company reserves the right to cancel any Day Tour or Express Service should circumstances arise to make such alterations necessary or if insufficient numbers make it uneconomic to operate. If the Company have to cancel any Day Tour or Express Service at any time the Company’s liability to you is only for any monies, you have paid to the Company at the time of cancellation.

10.3 The Company reserves the right, when this is due to circumstances beyond the Company’s control, to alter timetables or suspend, cancel or withdraw Express Services or Day Tours without notice whether before or after Passengers have booked.

10.4 Although the majority of London Express Services will be operated by the Company’s double and single deck executive coaches, the Company reserve the right to substitute standard coaches in emergencies only.

In these circumstances no refunds will be available.

10.8 On some services, refreshments including hot drinks, are available on board the coach for purchase by Passengers during the journey. Passengers must exercise great care in handling any refreshments, especially hot drinks, whilst the coach is in motion. The Company cannot accept responsibility for any injuries sustained by Passengers in such circumstances except where such an injury is due to the negligence of the Company, its servants or agents.

11.12 The Company will not accept unaccompanied luggage for carriage.

11.13 Passengers are responsible for placing their luggage onto the correct service. The driver may assist with luggage but it is the Passenger’s responsibility to see it on and off the coach or checking it in where such arrangements apply. For health and safety reasons, Passengers will be asked to load and unload themselves luggage which, in the drivers opinion, exceeds or appears to exceed the 20kg limit, or is in some way awkward or excessively heavy. The Passenger must also look after his/her luggage at all times including whilst at the coach station, at the stops and their hand luggage whilst on the coach.

11.14 Medication, money and valuable items should not be stowed in the luggage hold under any circumstances but should be taken on board. Such items may be placed in the overhead lockers or under the seat but should not be left unattended by the Passenger. Money and small valuables (such as jewellery) should be retained on the person at all times.

11.15 Hand luggage is defined as something which should be capable of going in the overhead luggage locker and should under no circumstances be allowed to obstruct the aisle.

11.16 Passengers who pack individual items of high value in their luggage  do so at their entire risk and  should ensure that such items are covered by an adequate policy of insurance in the Passenger’s name and at the Passenger’s cost. The Company’s liability in the event that luggage containing such high value items is lost, or destroyed, or damaged in any way is limited in accordance with the provisions of this contract and under no circumstances shall the Company be responsible for compensating the Passenger in respect of any loss or damage sustained by the Passenger in respect of such high value items being lost or damaged other than in accordance with the terms of the contract. High value items shall include by way of non-exhaustive illustration: jewellery; photographic equipment such as cameras, video cameras; hi-fi equipment; computer hardware or software; antiques; or valuable fashion accessories and clothes. All such items are carried on the Company’s coaches entirely at the Passenger’s own risk and the Company’s liability to the Passenger in respect of such items shall at all times be limited in accordance with the terms of this contract. The bringing by the Passenger to the attention of the coach driver or any other personnel employed by the Company of the fact that the Passenger is carrying valuable items in their luggage shall not in any way alter the Company’s liability to the Passenger in respect of their luggage or any such valuables.

11.20 The Company will not be liable for loss or damage to the Passenger’s luggage or to any possession of the Passenger unless such loss or damage is caused by negligence on the part of the Company, their servants or agents. In the event of the Company being liable for loss or damage under this clause its liability shall be limited to the sum of £150.00 per item of luggage or single item contained therein with a maximum limit of £750.00 per Passenger. For the avoidance of doubt the Company’s liability in respect of a Passenger’s belongings shall be, irrespective of the value of individual items contained within luggage £150.00 per item of personal belongings with an aggregate maximum liability per Passenger, again irrespective of the aggregate value of the Passenger’s luggage, and/or items contained within that luggage of £750.00. The Company will not be liable for any loss of money whatsoever. ”Money” for these purposes shall include all UK and foreign currency, valuable securities such as cheques, money orders, bankers drafts, premium bonds and certificates.

11.21 It is recommended that Passengers take out insurance to cover their luggage and money whilst in transit, particularly if there are items of value.

LOST PROPERTY

12.1 All reasonable efforts will be made to enable Passengers to be reunited with lost property. Lost property found on a coach will be retained and disposed of by the holder in accordance with the Public Service Vehicles (Lost Property) (Amendments) Regulations 1995. Articles found on the coach must be handed over to the driver or courier of the coach.

12.2 The Company will not be liable for any loss, damage or delay resulting from the leaving of any item of luggage on our coaches, coach stations, or elsewhere.

12.3 If luggage is left on a coach or coach station the Company has the right to open and examine the contents of such luggage before removing it to a secure place. The Company may, without incurring any liability to the owner of the luggage, remove or destroy any luggage or article or their contents which might in the Company’s reasonable opinion cause injury, danger or inconvenience to persons or damage to property. In such instances Passengers are not entitled to compensation for any loss which they may suffer. Such action by the Company will only be taken when the Company reasonably considers that the security of the Company’s property, its personnel, passengers, the general public, public property or anything else is considered to be a risk.

12.4  All articles of luggage left on the Company’s coaches or at the Company’s coach stations shall be regarded as the Company’s property and not the property of the finder, and all such articles must be handed over immediately to the Company’s staff or agents for safe keeping.
