26 Aug MANAGING YOUR TRAVEL ITINERARY

EXECUTIVE LIMOUSINE TAKES THE HASSLE OUT OF TRAVEL

When you have a business trip, you want your schedule to run like clockwork. Ideally, you’ll arrive at the airport on time, your flight will take off at the exact time of departure, and no problems will plague you before or afterward. However, delays, traffic, and other unforeseen problems might make your schedule more like a digital clock after a power outage: Your well-thought-out plans come to a standstill. While you can’t control flight delays, you can control the way you get to and from the airport, and that’s where Executive Limousine can come into play. Hiring car service will do the following things to give you a less stressful, if not completely stress-free, experience.

SAVE TIME

With car service, you can dodge any unpleasant surprises. You may give yourself plenty of time to leave for the airport, but traffic conditions might work against you, even with that extra wiggle room. A Chauffeur will keep a close watch on the traffic patterns for the day. He will know which trouble spots to avoid if he needs to. Sure, you can do this on your own, but considering the rush of non-stop activity that takes place during the hours before a flight, do you really want to add that extra burden to your list of to-dos? Chauffeurs will pay attention to these details so that you can focus on other things.

SAVE MONEY

Does the thought of hiring car service just for an airport transfer seem too expensive? Consider your alternatives. You could have a relative or friend drop you off. But they might also run the risk of assuming they’ll have plenty of time to get you to the airport, when unbeknownst to them, traffic conditions say otherwise. You barely make your flight, you’re too frazzled to do a good job of wooing the client, and you end up losing what would have been a hefty source of revenue for the company.

On the other hand, you could hire a taxi, but you’re not guaranteed that the driver will show up when he needs to, and your frustration could spill over into your meeting, which may give the client a poor impression of you. Finally, you could drive yourself and just park your car in the airport lot, but that option can be costly, especially if you’ll be gone for several days. Long-term parking at JFK is $18 for the first 24 hours, then $6 for each eight-hour period after that. When you take in the potential losses—both financial and otherwise—of other types of transportation, car service is actually a much better use of your money.

SAVE YOUR SANITY

If you’re traveling for business, you want to be on your A-game. This may be difficult if you have to deal with stressful roadblocks and a drawn-out search for parking. When someone else is driving you, you can use the commute to prepare for whatever awaits when you land. You may choose to spend your time reviewing accounts, researching your potential client’s company, or simply reading through important emails. You can relax knowing that you can just hand off your itinerary to your Chauffeur and direct your attention elsewhere.

Car service can be a great asset for traveling executives. Chauffeurs understand how important it is that you stick to your schedule as much as possible, and so you can trust them to be reliable and responsive to your needs. The process is as simple as just handing your itinerary over to your Chauffeur. After that, you can sit back and relax while your driver takes care of the rest.
