§7 – Extras, Waiting Time and Specific Booking
Conditions
IR Transfer may offer additional services and options, including:

additional waiting time;

lunch boxes;
-
other supplementary services or options adapted to the service.
The availability, price and applicable conditions for such extras shall be communicated to the Client before confirmation when they are booked in advance.

Additional Waiting Time
When waiting time is included in the price of a service, its duration and schedule are specified in the offer or booking confirmation email.
The included waiting time constitutes the period covered by the initial service price.
When the included waiting time is exceeded during the performance of the service, any additional time shall be considered additional waiting time and may be charged at the applicable rate, even if such additional time was not booked or confirmed in advance.

The standard rate for an additional hour is PLN 150 per commenced hour, unless a different rate is expressly stated in the booking confirmation email or an individual agreement.
For example, where a service includes 4 hours of waiting time and the Client exceeds this period, the commencement of an additional hour shall result in the full corresponding hour being charged.
No prior booking or confirmation of an additional hour is required when such additional time results from exceeding the waiting time included in the service.
Lunch Boxes and Other Extras
Lunch boxes and other additional options are available depending on the service concerned.
Their price, quantity and specific conditions shall be communicated to the Client before confirmation and included in the booking confirmation email.
