When you think about air travel, you are probably focused on the airborne leg of the trip more than how you get to the airport. However in many ways, this is the most logistically difficult part of every trip. Airport parking costs make it prohibitively expensive to drive yourself to the airport, and mass transit schedules are notoriously unfriendly to the early morning and late evening travel rush. Often you are unfamiliar with the area where you are arriving making a rental car less useful than it could be. Therefore, most air travelers opt for taxi services to serve their ground transportation needs. What most fail to recognize is that an Airport Car Service is a transportation alternative that provides better value for your money.
Not Just a Luxury
Traditionally, limousines and car services have been positioned in the public consciousness as a luxury only enjoyed by the wealthy or those who can write it off. However, you would be surprised to learn that the costs of engaging a cab are comparable or sometimes even higher than the price of an airport car service; taxis charge with a running meter, any delay in getting to your destination can lead to unexpectedly high fares.
Hidden Value with Every Ride
While many would say that there is little to no difference between hailing a taxi or hiring a car service, the most obvious difference is in the amenities that are available when your chartered vehicle arrives. Often taxis are unsupervised, unclean and of a make and model built more for low gas mileage than the comfort of riders. An Airport Car Service makes rider comfort a priority with roomy back seats and a cushy interior. In addition, some rides will incorporate entertainment options for longer trips.
Suitable For All Trips
Not every trip is just a jaunt from one point to another. Sometimes you may have to make a stop or pick up an additional passenger. Other times you will be attending an event where you need to be picked up immediately afterward in order to make a return flight. Engaging a taxi service in these instances is problematic for a variety of reasons. While a taxi driver may be willing to wait for you to complete your business, you better believe that the meter will be running. If you are depending on easily hailing a cab after you are done, it might be a gamble. Your car service will provide reliable transportation when you need it at a fixed cost that you can budget for.
Make A Great Impression
Sometimes it is not how quickly you get to a destination, but what kind of impression you make when you get there. Whether you are attending a business event or just a get-together with friends and family it never hurts to make a grand entrance.
Time Is Money
Time is your most precious commodity, the only thing you can’t make more of, and – with this truth in mind – an Airport Car Service provides a much more efficient study in time management than relying on a taxi. Whether you have limited time to enjoy a vacation or are in a hurry to get to an important business meeting, it provides peace of mind to know that you will have a driver waiting for you at the airport baggage claim.
