Information if you are purchasing your own airfare: Transfers for Independent Travelers:
Road Scholar no longer offers complimentary transfers to participants with “Program Only” status. However, on this program, ONLY THE ARRIVAL TRANSFER is an exception to that policy due to the distance to the first hotel. If you booked your own air, you will be on your own for the departure transfer.
Reservations for the arrival transfer can be made by contacting rseuropeprograms@roadscholar.org no later than 30 DAYS prior to the program start date. Please note that we will not have a final transfer schedule until approx. 7 weeks prior to the program start date and it will be included in the Final Information Packet. As long as your flights fall into the parameters listed below, we will be able to confirm your ability to join a transfer if you reach out prior to that time, but no other details will be available.
You MUST include your program number and date in the subject line of your request. If you arranged air on your own, please include your flight information and date of arrival in your transfer request.
The transfer schedule is based on the times of arrival for Road Scholar booked flights and will vary from departure to departure. TO ENSURE THAT YOUR FLIGHT ARRIVES WITHIN THAT SAME TIME PERIOD AS RS BOOKED FLIGHTS, WE REQUEST THAT YOUR FLIGHT ARRIVES NO LATER THAN 11:00 A.M. There is no guarantee that the final transfer schedule will coincide with independently booked flights that arrive later than 11:00 a.m.
In the unlikely event Road Scholar must make changes to the program's arrival or departure details, we will notify all participants as soon as possible. Participants who have purchased Road Scholar airfare are protected against airline change fees; however, anyone who has not purchased Road Scholar airfare will be required to make their own adjustments and may incur fees imposed by the airline. If you wish to purchase airfare through Road Scholar, please call (800) 241-1404.
