Locally, we serve airports like O’Hare, Midway, and Gary.
We monitor all commercial flights and adjust for delays, and we do not charge extra for delayed flights. Commercial arrivals and departures appear on our dispatch screen, and a satellite feed covers private aviation.
We email you a reminder 24 hours before your reserved time to confirm your reservation. Twenty minutes before that time, you will receive a text or email with your chauffeur’s name, picture, phone number and tracking link. That link lets you see where your vehicle is, so you know how close we are. Status emails also cover your vehicle’s arrival, passenger boarding, and trip completion.
Our free mobile app gives you direct access to your reservations and shows the vehicle description.
Your pet is welcome to join you in our vehicles. We just ask for advance notice, which helps us accommodate them and avoid sending a chauffeur with allergies.
