Many limousine service companies offer discount limo rates to travelers when reserving airport limousine service to and from major US commercial airports. These limo rates are referred to as “Airport Transfers” and are based on a fixed flat rate. Many limousine companies offer the discounted rate in order to remain competitive with taxi and shuttle service companies.
Most limousine companies institute restrictions regarding the use of these discounted Airport Transfer rates. For example, most limousine companies do not allow additional stops going to or from the airport. If the traveler requests additional stops, the limousine company may charge the traveler an additional set fee per stop or in some cases, change the type of Charter from an Airport Transfer to an Hourly Charter which is more expensive. Most Hourly Charters require a minimum number of hours in order to reserve a limousine. Depending on the company, the minimum number of hours can be 2 or more hours which may significantly increase the limousine transportation cost going to or from the airport.
Before you complete your limousine reservation, review the company’s policies regarding Airport Transfer rates which may be displayed on their company website. If information is not available, ask the customer service representative to provide you with written details about their policies and rates via an email.
