Key Information for Successful Group Transportation
Behind-the-scenes we do our best to make sure you arrive to your destination safely and on time. In order to consistently provide a high level of service, we acquire key information needed to ensure a successful trip. This is especially true when transporting groups and a large number of people. Curious what information is most important? Take a look at the check list our reservationists run through when creating a group reservation:
GROUP CHECKLIST

- Contact Person/s
- Cell # of Contact person/s
- Signed Group Contract
- Group Manifest (Excel Worksheet preferred)
- Cell #’s for all passengers
- How long are people required to wait if they are “packaged” together?
- If people arrive without a reservation/not on manifest and we arrange for a last minute car, there will be a surcharge to cover costs.e
- Monitor all flights and move passengers to appropriate vehicles to eliminate additional waiting time or additional vehicles needed.
