Vancouver Limo Airport

Graduation Limousine Service Grads of 2012 have a bright future to look forward too. High school, college and university’s grads will soon be moving on to a new stage in their lives.  Whether heading to a pre-booked event at one of the city’s finest hotels or having a small local event with your friends, one option to consider is grad limousine service. This is a great way to travel with your closest friends and have a memorable & safe day/night out on the town.

When making your reservation you will be asked to provide the schedule for the day, contact information, credit card information & your payment preference (cash, credit card). Finding the right limousine that suits your party size and needs is important too. For grads who are still minors it is common to use a guarantor (usually your parents) to provide credit card information. When making your reservation make sure that a contract is signed, this provides you and company you book with piece of mind. Being that grad season is a very busy on demand time of year, it is common to find that limousine services will have minimum hour reservations for grads. Most services start at four or more hours and can easily go up to eight hours or more on select dates. It is very common for grads of different schools to celebrate on the same day resulting in a lot of limousine services being fully booked out with grad work + all the additional services they provide. Make sure that you get a clear outline of all costs from the company prior to confirming your reservation. Find out whether gratuity (tip) is included in the billing or paid separately. Find out what the cancellation policy is. Expect limousine services to charge a deposit to hold your reservation – deposits usually range between twenty five-fifty percent of the overall booking cost. Pricing is always important to clients. It is important to know what you want and what the costs will be when renting a limousine. Different limousine services will have a wide variety of rates and hourly minimums. For all day reservations discounts are usually available, as services appreciate clients who commit more. Finding the best deal is often about doing your research well ahead of time. Leaving it till the last minute is a recipe for disaster.

Most of the traditional style limousines are for groups under ten. Suv limousines, party buses and passenger vans are additional types of transportation used that can accommodate larger size party’s. Finding the right limousine is really a matter of personal preference. Some are looking for a big flashy party limousine that makes people say “WOW”; others want something more sleek, stylish & sexy. Most grads like to bring their own music of choice with them the night of. The best way to do this is have several members of your party bring different types of music. Make sure to find out what kind of music system is in the limousine you will be using, whether it’s CD player or mp3 player. If you want to watch some movies/videos during the ride, make sure that the company you book with has DVD player/televisions in their vehicles.  Lastly make sure that members of your party will be responsible when in the limousine. In cases where a client throws up or causes damage to a vehicle the charges can be very high and will include cleanup, repair, and loss of work which on a grad day can be up there. In the event of a member of your party having such an incident you or your parents (the credit card holder) will be held responsible.

Congratulations graduates we wish you all the best in 2012

Here comes the snow!

When weather conditions get extreme it is essential to plan ahead in your transportation arrangements. Remember that it is important to be at the airport on time. Also take into consideration that your flight may have delays due to weather conditions. If you have access to the internet monitor flights to ensure that your flight has not been rescheduled or delayed. When travelling to and from the airport make sure you have reliable transportation whether you are using a taxi, limousine or having a friend help you out.  Here in British Columbia we are less experienced in dealing with icy snowy weather conditions then our fellow Canadians in provinces like Ontario & Quebec. Make sure that any vehicle you are in has snow tires. Snow flurries, black ice and inexperienced drivers can make driving a real hazard. Make sure you have the right attire for cold weather conditions and that your baggage is properly labelled. Weary travellers or those embarking on a long trip should consider using an exceptional limousine service; relax in the comfort of a luxury vehicle while a professional guides you to your destination of choice.  Ask the service to monitor your flight arrangements and ensure the vehicle you use has adequate room for your party + luggage. We wish you all the best in your travels.
