Current locations include Alghero (AHO), Bari (BRI), Bologna (BLQ), Cagliari (CAG), Catania (CTA), Florence (FLR), Forlì (FRL), Genoa (GOA), Lamezia Terme (SUF), Marche/Ancona (AOI), Milan Linate (LIN), Milan Malpensa (MXP), Bergamo (BGY), Naples (NAP), Olbia (OLB), Palermo (PMO), Parma (PMF), Perugia (PEG), Pescara (PSR), Pisa (PSA), Reggio Calabria (REG), Rimini (RMI), Rome Fiumicino (FCO), Rome Ciampino (CIA), Salerno (QSR), Treviso (TSF), Trieste (TRS), Turin (TRN), Venice (VCE) and Verona (VRN). Service availability and the exact assistance offered can vary by airport, terminal and booking date, so each request is confirmed individually.

What can arrival Meet & Greet assistance include?

Depending on the airport and confirmed service, a local representative may meet you at an agreed point, guide you through the terminal, assist with airport formalities and luggage arrangements where available, and coordinate your onward chauffeur. Fast-track access, porterage, airside meeting points and private apron transportation are airport-controlled services and are only included when specifically confirmed.

How does departure Meet & Greet work?

Your representative can meet you at the agreed airport location and assist with the journey through check-in, security, immigration and the route towards your lounge or departure gate, according to the service confirmed for that airport. Priority lanes, lounge access, porterage and airside assistance are subject to local airport rules and availability.

Can you assist with connecting or transit flights?

Yes. Ruby Journeys can arrange connection assistance at supported airports. The service is tailored to the itinerary and may include guidance between terminals or flights, assistance with airport procedures and coordination around the connection time. The exact meeting point and inclusions are confirmed before booking.

Can I arrange a chauffeur without booking airport Meet & Greet?

Yes. Chauffeur transfers and hourly chauffeur services can be arranged as standalone services or coordinated with Meet & Greet. Tell us your pickup point, destination, date, time, passenger count and luggage requirements and we will prepare the appropriate arrangement.

Do you provide Meet & Greet at railway stations?

Yes. Ruby Journeys can arrange train station Meet & Greet at selected locations. Assistance can include meeting the traveller at an agreed point, helping with orientation and luggage arrangements where available, and coordinating a chauffeur for the onward journey.

Can Ruby Journeys help if my luggage is delayed or missing?

Contact us with the baggage report details, flight information and delivery address. We will assess what practical assistance can be arranged. Baggage tracing, release and delivery remain subject to the airline, airport, handling company and local procedures, so we cannot guarantee recovery times.

How do I request a personalised quotation?

Use our enquiry form, email us or contact Ruby Journeys on WhatsApp. For the most accurate quotation, include your service date, airport or station, flight or train details, arrival or departure time, number of travellers, luggage and any special requirements. We quote according to the actual itinerary and requested level of assistance rather than fixed packages.

What happens after I request a booking?

We review your itinerary and requirements, confirm availability and send you the relevant quotation and booking conditions. Your service is only confirmed once Ruby Journeys has accepted the booking and any required payment has been completed in accordance with the quotation.

Which payment methods are available?

Once your booking and price are confirmed, we’ll send you a secure payment link. Available payment methods will be shown on the payment page before you pay. If you need an invoice or have a payment question, please tell us before completing payment.

What if my plans change or I need to cancel?

Please contact Ruby Journeys as soon as possible. Cancellation and amendment conditions depend on the service booked and are set out in our Terms & Conditions and, where applicable, your quotation or booking confirmation. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.

Can you arrange Meet & Greet for families, groups or executive travellers?

Yes. We can coordinate assistance for individual travellers, families, corporate travellers and groups. For larger parties, please provide passenger numbers, luggage requirements and itinerary details early so we can confirm the most suitable staffing and arrangements.

Do you work with travel advisors and agencies?

Yes. Ruby Journeys works with travel professionals requiring discreet support for their clients. Service arrangements and commercial terms are discussed directly according to the relationship, destination and booking requirements.

Why do travellers choose airport Meet & Greet?

Meet & Greet can make an unfamiliar or busy airport easier to navigate, particularly for tight connections, complex itineraries, families, executive travellers or anyone who values a more supported airport experience. The benefit depends on the airport and the assistance available for your specific journey.

I still have a question. What should I do?

Send us your itinerary and question through the enquiry form, email or WhatsApp. Ruby Journeys will review the details and respond with guidance tailored to your journey.

Do you offer preferred rates for travel advisors and agencies?

Yes. Ruby Journeys offers preferred partner rates for travel advisors and agencies. We welcome the opportunity to build trusted, long-term partnerships and provide seamless, discreet support for your clients throughout their journey. For partner rates or collaboration enquiries, please contact us directly and we’ll be delighted to discuss your requirements.
