Booking Request.
Once KFB have responded to the hirers booking enquiry, if the hirer wishes to book the bus, they will need to supply all the required details and pay a 15% deposit.
KFB guarentee that once a deposit is paid, the slot will not be offered to another private hirer.
However bookings made over a month in advance may be subject to alteration if a full day booking for a major event
This rarely happens, but if making a booking over a month in advance, the hirer needs to know it is a possibility.
KFB will do everything possible to find an alternate date, or offer a full refund.

If you do not pay the balance by the due date, KFB, will be entitled to regard the booking as cancelled and no refund will be payable.
OPERATIONS
KFB will not take responsibility for any delay in reaching any venue due to road works, traffic chaos or any other highway hazard.
If the bus is delayed, it will, if it's timetable for the day permits, still stay for the agreed time period.
However it is always our aim to arrive at your venue 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled time, so giving a margin for the unexpected.
When the bus is booked for a private event the price quoted will include parking, if appropriate.
