Covid-19 Update
& Safety Measures For Your Trip
ISSUED: 01/04/2021
We are delighted to confirm that with the Government road map plan, we will be able to start to operate a select range of day trips from the 12th of April onwards! We cannot wait to welcome you back onboard. For Theatres and concerts, we do rely on hearing the status of the shows from the event promoters. Once we have been notified, we will be in contact with all our customers who have booked to confirm. We will be running all our tours on a reduced capacity for the remainder of this year, so make sure to book ahead now to avoid disappointment! Hopefully as lockdown eases and the vaccine roll out progresses, not all of the below safety measures will be needed. We do advise to please check our Coronavirus w ebpage for any changes to these policies before your trip. You can do this by scanning this QR Code or visiting our website here: www.barnescoaches.co.uk/coronavirus-safety
Protection
• It is now a legal requirement to wear a face covering on all public transport.) (If you do not wear a face covering you will be breaking the law and could be fined. • People with a ligitimate reason and Children under 11yrs are exempt from wearing a face covering. • A cloth face covering should cover your mouth and nose while still allowing you to breathe comfortably. Allowed: Cloth face covering; surgical mask; (FFP) face masks without valves. Not allowed: (FFP) face masks with valves; face shields. • • •
Our drivers will be wearing a face covering. Hand sanitizer will be available on board, please use as you enter the vehicle. However we do advise bringing and using your own. The toilet on the coach will only be available during the current period for extreme emergency use.
Social Distancing • • • •
04
We have limited the capacity on our coaches to make social distancing easier for our passengers. You may not get the seats that you have reserved at the time of booking as we may build a seating plan to help with Social Distancing. To ensure Social Distancing, the front row and all aisle seats on the Off Side may not be available to book. To ensure Social Distancing, we require bookings of 1 persons to sit on the Off Side (You will not be sat next to anybody else).
Covid Update
Booking Hotline: 01793 821303 or visit www.barnescoaches.co.uk
The safety of our passengers is always our top priority. “Family Groups” / Rule of Six
A “Family Group” is defined as members of your own household or support bubble. • Please ensure you only sit in the seats assigned to your “family” group. • You must stay in your “Family Group” whilst on and off the coach. This includes whilst at hotels, attractions etc. • If your booking contains more than one “family” group, then please ensure to let us know so that we can seat each group separately.
Boarding • • • • • •
When standing at your pickup point (or at destination waiting to return), please ensure you are stood 2m away from other booking “Family Groups”. There is no need to hand the driver your paperwork, just give our driver your name or booking reference number. Check in to your coach by scanning the NHS Test and Trace QR code when boarding. Hand sanitizer will be available on board, please use as you enter the vehicle. (However we do advise bringing and using your own.) When entering the coach whenever possible please fill from the back first. When exiting the coach please empty from the front first. Please be patient as queues are likely and boarding and alighting the vehicle will take longer than normal.
Cleaning
Our coaches are disinfected and cleaned after every run, we do this with an approved disinfectant by ptcxtrasan which is sprayed into the atmosphere and settles on all surfaces and will help prevent the cross-infection of bacteria & viruses such as Covid-19.
What can you do? • • •
Do not travel if you are experiencing symptons of COVID-19. These include a high temperate, a new continuous cough, loss of smell or taste. Please check your temperature before travelling with us. Some attractions require us to temperature check all passengers - if you fail a temperature check, neither you nor your Family Group/Support Bubble will be able to travel and no refund will be available. Wash your hands before travelling and if you can, bring hand sanitiser with you for your journey.

Sometimes minor amendments (such as to departure times of pickup points) are unavoidable and we reserve the right to amend details when required. We will do our best to keep you informed. For major amendments, such as cancellation due to insufficient bookings, passengers will be offered the choice of an alternative tour if available, or a refund in full of all monies paid. Either way, the company shall be exempt from any further liability. Missed departure: Your Excursion Ticket clearly shows the departure point and time. Please check this carefully. You are responsible for ensuring that you are at the correct departure point at the correct time, and we cannot be liable for any loss or expense suffered by passengers because of their late arrival at any departure point. All drivers have a list of passengers joining at each point shown on client’s tickets, and in the event of clients not being at the arranged point will make every endeavour to trace them. The coach will wait a reasonable time, but if a client is delayed or not able to join the coach early notification avoid unnecessary delay and inconvenience to other passengers. Delays/missed show/event etc. We arrange departure times to give reasonable allowance for delays which may be incurred en route to venues. In the event of delays beyond our reasonable control (e.g. accidents/roadworks etc.), liability is restricted to returning you to your point of departure. Coach breakdown: In the event of coach breakdown, we will normally be able to provide alternative transport arrangements in sufficient time to avoid a major impact on your day. If the show/event is missed, or the day severely curtailed as a result of coach breakdown, then the company will accept liability and passengers will be offered the choice of an alternative tour if available, or a refund in full of all monies paid. Either way, the company shall be exempt from any further liability. Show castings: We are unable to guarantee that advertised or particular performers will appear in any show or concert, and no refund will be made unless offered by the supplier/promoter. Right of admission: The right of admission to any event is reserved to the promoter. The company will not accept any liability or offer any refund or compensation in the event that you are refused entry to a venue by nature of your behaviour or demeanour (e.g. being drunk or under the influence of alcohol, being, or appearing to be, under the age limit for admission, acting in such a manner that you are refused entry). You must be prepared to be subjected to a security search of your person and belongings. Cancelled event/show: In the event of a show/event being cancelled 12 hours or more before commencement of the performance, we will make every endeavour to contact clients to inform them of the cancellation. The company will endeavour to obtain a transfer to a rescheduled date or refund in full. Children & Seniors: Senior Citizens are classed as 65+ for men and 60+ for women. Children of 15 years of age and under must be accompanied by an adult. However, children 16 years of age may travel unaccompanied with the written permission from a parent or guardian, but this does not qualify them to accompany other children under the age of 16 who do not have parent or guardian permission. Regardless of the above, there may be other age limitations imposed by the organisers of an event, show or concert. On some excursions a reduction in price may be available for children and seniors. See individual trip details. Coach seating: Coach seats are normally allocated at the time of booking and subject to availability at that time. However, seat locations cannot be guaranteed because occasionally it may prove necessary to reallocate seating due to circumstances beyond our control.

If you are prevented from travelling or continuing your excursion by such a termination our responsibility for your excursion thereupon ceases. Full cancellation charges will apply, and we will be under no obligation for any refund, compensation or loss which you may incur. Passengers with disabilities: Should you or a member of your party have any medical condition or disability that may affect the excursion, or theatre booking, please advise us prior to confirming the booking so that we can advise as to the suitability of the excursion or theatre arrangements. If a passenger requires assistance, then they must travel with an able-bodied carer or friend. We will make every effort to accommodate the passenger.
