Each traveler is restricted to two standard suitcases and one personal item. Since there will likely be other passengers on your shuttle, you will share luggage space with other travelers. If you are traveling with more than two pieces of luggage per person, we recommend that you consider reserving an additional seat.

Personal Items
Your personal items should be small enough to keep on your lap or in between your feet on the floor without interfering with the space of another passenger. Examples include a purse, laptop case, everyday backpack or small shoulder bag.

Luggage
Groome Transportation’s standard luggage allowance is: two suitcases, each of which should weigh 50 pounds or less with a total linear length (sum total of the length, width, and height) of 62 inches or less. If any of passenger’s luggage exceeds 50 pounds, the passenger may be required to assist with loading the luggage, space permitting. Groome Transportation will not be liable under any circumstances for personal injuries as a result of loading, unloading, or other luggage handling for such luggage.

Luggage Tips
To avoid loss or mix-ups, we recommend that passengers ensure their luggage is tagged and identified with both the customer’s full legal name and contact information. We also recommend that all luggage be locked with TSA approved locks.

We will make every effort to safeguard and return luggage to passengers in the condition that it was when loaded on the shuttle. However, Groome Transportation will not be liable under any circumstances for damage to or loss of any luggage. Groome Transportation disclaims any liability for particularly expensive, valuable, or fragile items such as, but not limited to, computers, electronics, jewelry, banknotes, artwork, collectibles, or antiques, and strongly recommends that these items remain with passengers at all times, subject to the other policies set forth above.

Prohibited Items
Boxes that exceed standard suitcase restrictions, other over-sized luggage, and duffel bags exceeding the luggage allowance; corrosive substances (such as acids and alkalis), combustible or flammable liquids (such as gasoline and kerosene), compressed gases, bio-hazardous materials, explosives (including fireworks), hazardous materials (poisons, radioactive materials, etc.), materials with a noxious odor, illicit substances.

Military Travel
Military travel is unique for temporary duty assignments (TDYs) and, therefore, Groome Transportation will allow personnel traveling for TDYs to bring the standard TDY kit which includes two duffel bags, one externally supported ruck sack and one personal bag. If additional equipment is required, please communicate that to the local office and we will do our best to accommodate on a space available basis.

Military personnel traveling with us who are moving to their next duty station (PCS) should follow the standard luggage policy and make appropriate arrangements to move any household goods.

Firearms and Ammunition
All passengers are prohibited from carrying weapons on the bus or in their carry-on items. Federal or local law enforcement officers are subject to exemptions. Weapons and firearms may be transported in suitcases. Firearms in suitcases must be in a locked hard-sided case and declared to a Groome representative at check-in. Ammunition may not be transported in any carry-on bag.

Assistive Devices
For those passengers traveling with an assistive device, please see our Accessibility Policy for additional information.
