Some travel agents take taxi bookings ie airport runs then sub em to a p/hire company, do they need an ops licence? Virgin provide transport to the airport, I don't see there vehicles licensed,
The same with Emirates.

I think the original phone taker does need a license now, but wont when the LC rules come in, if ever.

All the vehicles and drivers need a taxi or PH license. That wont change post LC.


but what licence if they havent got a car of their own? (hack base remember, not PH), theres no such thing as a hackney operators licence is there?

Anyone can offer to take bookings for hackney carriages, even convicted murderers/rapists.

That doesn't apply to the private hire side.
