Airport Transfer Rates:The Company provides a flat rate, known as the “Basic Airport Transfer” rate for airport pickups and drop-offs servicing most major airports.

Your reserved vehicle is dispatched according to the flight’s estimated time of arrival as provided to the Company by each respective airline’s automated system (Company is not responsible for any delays caused by the airline’s automated system or otherwise). Billing shall revert to the additional wait time policy, in the event the Client is delayed, or the waiting time is exceeded, beyond the allotted fifteen (30) minutes.

Shuttle Services: We require a coordinator to be provided by the customer as well as coordinator’s cellular phone number where we can be in touch during the shuttle service. The coordinator or the customer will be the sole party responsible for coordinating with the drivers and directing the passengers to the vehicles during the shuttle service. You acknowledge that the turnaround time may be longer than anticipated due to traffic conditions. Due to heavy traffic at pick up and drop off locations, failure of the coordinator in his/her duties may cause passenger to not properly locate the shuttle service.
