§ 2 Placing of orders and conclusion of contracts

The offers of Bavaria Limousines are subject to change and non-binding. Orders and declarations of acceptance always require written confirmation by us to be legally effective.

For online price requests of transfer or limousine services via the internet portal of Bavaria Limousines GmbH & Co.KG. the following provisions shall apply in addition to § 2 of these GTC:

Before sending the request, the customer can correct, change and view the data at any time using the “Forward” and “Back” buttons. At this point, no contract is concluded.

2. Bavaria Limousines GmbH und Co.KG will then send the customer an automatic confirmation of receipt by e-mail, in which the customer’s request together with the terms of the contract are listed again and which the customer can print out. The automatic confirmation of receipt merely documents that the request of the customer has been received and is being processed by Bavaria Limousines GmbH & Co.
