With this information, the RTL will evaluate your request and verify if your trip is possible.
When the verification is completed, the RTL will inform the applicant whether the trip is possible or not.
 
If the trip is possible, the RTL will also suggest a departure time and an arrival time in order to better coordinate the activity. You will also be informed of the number of buses you need according to the number of passengers. Finally, the RTL will inform you how much your request will cost. If you are in agreement with these propositions, the RTL will draw up a rental contract and will coordinate the trip’ arrangements with you.
