Service charters

In addition to the service indicators and applied methods used for quality measurement, a series of our commitments to our clients is listed below. We consider these to be essential in attaining our most important aim; offering a passenger transport service with the highest levels of quality possible.

1. ADVANCED BOOKING
Using the 'Online Sales' option on the www.sagales.com website, on those services that permit such (where there are no intermediate stops and no possibility of travelling standing up), our customers can now purchase their ticket 24 hours or more before their journey.

2. AVAILABILITY OF ADAPTED VEHICLES
Use the "Search for your Route" option on the aforementioned website, where we provide information on the services that run from the origin to the destination selected. Specifications are provided on vehicles adapted for disabled clients. A contact telephone number is provided for vehicles with partial adaptation to confirm schedule availability.

77.6% of the services run by Sagalés have facilities for people with reduced mobility, as part of the company’s commitment to make these facilities available to users as much as possible.

4. SERVICE DELAY POLICY

This allows us to provide appropriate explanations and where applicable, apologise to affected customers.

5. TICKET PURCHASES
