Multi-stop bookings — how to add stops

Adding intermediate stops to a chauffeur booking. Pricing impact, route-builder use, when to switch to hourly.

Multi-stop bookings are straightforward on the Fare 1 booking form — add stops in the trip card.

Limits

Up to 7 intermediate stops per journey. Each stop has full address + postcode for routing.

Pricing impact

Per-mile mode: each stop adds an extra-stop charge on top of the distance + waiting math. Typically £3-5 per stop.

Hourly mode: stops are part of the included-miles allowance.

When to switch to hourly

If you have:

  • 3+ intermediate stops where the driver waits
  • Loose schedule (don't know exact stop duration)
  • Same-day return after multiple errands

Hourly chauffeur is usually cheaper than per-mile + extra-stop fees + waiting fees.

Example

Bank + post office + 2 supermarket stops + home (4 stops, 25 miles total, 90 min waiting):

  • Per-mile: £42 + 4 × £4 + 1.5 × £20 = £88 (standard saloon)
  • Hourly: 3 hours minimum × £45 = £135

Per-mile wins on this trip. For 5+ stops or longer waiting, the math flips.
