Many people choose to hire a limousine service to enhance their special event in their lives – from weddings to high school proms to special anniversaries. Limousines have become a traditional part of the experience. Hiring a limo service for any of your special day, there are several important things one should keep in mind to ensure a good experience. As you know, not all limousine companies are the same and do not offer the same services so, it is important to ask some questions to ensure that you are getting what you want.
One of the biggest misconceptions that an individual may have is that a great deal of people will be able to fit into a limo. This situation usually happens with groups of people that hire a limousine for an occasion. They have failed to realize that the number of passengers in a limo seats is the maximum number of occupants that should be inside the limo.
If an individual is renting a 6-person limousine, the maximum number of individuals in the limousine should be six. If there are 8 individuals in the group, then a 10-person limousine should be the one requested.
* Another thing to keep in mind when booking a limousine service is that the driver will only be as good as your instructions to them are.
If you need to be at a specific destination at a specific time, it is important to let the driver know up front. Any directions to the location should be written and it should not be assumed that the limousine driver knows where everything in the city is located. They are only human after all. By letting the limo provider and driver know the itinerary, this assures that travel will be smooth and that you will arrive at your destination at the desired time.
* When traveling, it is important that the limousine company and driver knows what airline to drop you off at or pick you up from.
If the company and the driver know the flight number of the flight that you are taking, they will be able to determine that your flight is delayed and will wait or return for you when your flight arrives.
* It is also important to remember that limousines have a limited amount of trunk space, about the same amount as a luxury sedan.
If you and your party are going to be traveling with a great deal of luggage, it is best to let the limousine company know prior to the travel date and they may be able to accommodate the additional luggage in a luggage trailer.
By these simple tips in mind when obtaining a limo service, most of the signature issues that arise from limousine travel are negated and the trip will be more enjoyable and memorable for all.
