5. How do you ensure the safety of my credit card number?
At goldentouchtransportation.com we use the Secure Sockets Layer and Private Communication Technology security standards that are supported by Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0, Netscape 3.0 or later and other popular browsers. SSL encodes your personal information (such as your address and phone number, or your credit card number) so that it is available only to you to make sure your travel planning goes smoothly. This encryption process makes doing business over the Internet more secure than making a purchase by telephone.

6. Is my e-mail confirmation a valid ticket?
Please print 2 copies of the voucher, one for your records, and one to present to the driver at the time of the pickup. In case you misplace the voucher, a print out of the email sent by us with a confirmed reservation number will work as a valid e-ticket. Just provide the reservation number to the driver, who will already have all the details of your journey.

We will allow for emergencies and will not charge for a 'no-show' if for example there is a death in the family, bad weather, missed flights, or canceled flights. Please let us know via email at admin@goldentouchtransportation.com the reason for 'no show' so that we do not charge the passenger credit card.
