Airport Transfers

Black Car & Limo Service provides a flat rate for most domestic commercial airport pickups and drop-offs to or from DFW in the immediate metro Dallas-Fort Worth area and involving most major airports and metropolitan areas across the US. The commercial airport transfer rate is based upon a pickup and drop-off without any associated delay or waiting time exceeding fifteen (15) minutes. Your vehicle is dispatched according to the flight’s estimated time of arrival as provided to Black Car & Limo Service by each respective airline’s automated system (Black Car & Limo Service is not responsible for delays caused by the airline’s automated system or otherwise). Billing shall revert to the prevailing hourly rate in the event the client is delayed, or the waiting time is exceeded, beyond the allotted fifteen (15) minutes. Rates and terms may be different for private FBO’s, service involving international arrivals and service in commercial airports outside the U.S.

Point to Point Transfers

Black Car & Limo Service may provide point-to-point transfer rates for local pickups and drop offs within the immediate Dallas-Fort Worth service area. Wait time beyond the fifteen (15) minute “grace” period as well as for extra stops or indirect routing are charged additional, or charges may revert to the prevailing hourly rate. Transfer rates are a function of time, distance and zone locations.

Hourly Service

Black Car & Limo Service provides an hourly rate for all other service based on a two (4) hour or more minimum charge. Hourly or “As Directed” services allow for multiple stops and wait time as directed by the client. Vehicle will stay with the client or at their stop locations (as parking availability allows) for the entire rental time. Travel time may be charged on a “garage-to-garage” basis and is made a part of the respective hourly minimums.

Cancellations & Changes

Black Car & Limo Service understands that cancellations are sometimes necessary and unavoidable. Unless otherwise agreed to or provided in writing, the following applies:

For local service in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, we generally accept cancellations on sedan & SUV airport transfers without a charge (24) hours before the scheduled pick-up time.

Vans, Minibuses, premium and specialty vehicles require no less than a 72 hours cancellation notice.

Motor coaches require no less than 2 week cancellation notice and up to 30 days notice.

International cancellations require a minimum 48 hour notice or as noted in your confirmation.

Cancellation notices may vary due to local conditions (i.e. weather), event, vehicle type and market area.

Time changes made with less than the required notice above will still result in additional and possibly full charges. Example: At 1:30pm a requested change in pick up time from 2:00pm to 4:00pm will result in full charge for the 2:00pm trip and a new charge for the 4:00pm trip.

Special Events & Peak Demand Rental Times

Special events and peak demand periods both locally and in other markets may dictate premium pricing, higher hourly minimums and in some cases multi-day minimums, additional notice for changes and cancellations. Vehicles are generally in more limited supply for the higher demand and often times supplemental vehicles are required to accommodate this demand.

No Shows

If you do not see your chauffeur, please call our office immediately at (214)442-3045 to avoid the full-charge “no-show” fee. We generally include all admin/licensing and/or STC fees and recommended 20% chauffeur gratuity in the minimum no-show fee for your convenience, however gratuity amount is always 100% at your discretion. You may increase, decrease or have the tip removed entirely. Please advise on the gratuity you wish to pay, if any.

For Point-to-Point & Airport Service, a fee equal to the base fare, wait time, admin/licensing/STC and recommended chauffeur gratuity (gratuity amount at your discretion), will be charged when the client does not show at the pre-arranged pick-up location.

For Hourly Service, a fee equal to 2 hours of service, admin/licensing/STC and recommended gratuity (gratuity amount at your discretion) will be charged when the client does not show at the pre-arranged pick-up location.

Again, to avoid no show charges, please call our office locally at (214)442-3045. The dispatcher will immediately direct your chauffeur to you.

E-Mail Communication

Generally we accept new reservations, changes and cancellations by e-mail (blackcarandlimoservice@gmail.com) with adequate notice. Although we do operate 24/7/365, it is recommended that you verbally confirm any request sent after normal business hours and on major holidays. If your needs require attention in less than a eight hours, please call our office at (214)442-3045.

Many clients may be dealing direct with one of our staff members and e-mailing them individually. Staff members only have access to their e-mail during their regular office schedule. Although during normal weekday business hours, we can reasonably monitor “out of office” staff e-mail, we are not able to monitor everyone’s individual e-mail around the clock. So for shorter notice requests, always send those requests to blackcarandlimoservice@gmail.com, not individual e-mail addresses. If that individual staff member is not in the office, your request may not be handled promptly. If you get an “Out of Office” message sent from an individual staff e-mail address, please contact our office by phone (214)442-3045 or e-mail blackcarandlimoservice@gmail.com right away for your request to be processed.

We cannot guarantee cancellations, changes or new reservations unless sent to blackcarandlimoservice@gmail.com with adequate notice.

You should always get an e-mail confirmation of a new reservation, any changed reservation or cancelled reservation. If you do not receive such e-mail confirmation, please contact us right away.

Chauffeur Tip Policy

It is customary to pay a tip to the chauffeur for services rendered. As a convenience to our clients, a recommended 20% tip that is paid 100% to the chauffeur is added to your charges, unless your corporate agreement states differently. Chauffeur tip is always completely at your discretion and subject to your satisfaction with the chauffeur’s service. You may increase, decrease or eliminate the tip entirely. Please let us know if you choose to pay tip in a different manner. If you are approving an additional tip being added to the bill, please confirm via signature and/or promptly via e-mail to blackcarandlimoservice@gmail.com  referencing your reservation number, or just give us a call to adjust billing. Chauffeurs understand that all tips must be earned by providing outstanding service to our clients and their guests, and that the actual amount received is always up to the client.

Arrival Time

Black Car & Limo Service and its chauffeurs always prepare in advance to avoid unnecessary delays in arrival time. However road, traffic and weather conditions are often times beyond the reasonable control of the company and the chauffeur. No refunds can be given as a result of late arrivals due to such conditions or other occurrences out of the reasonable control of the company or chauffeur.

Black Car & Limo Service cannot not assume responsibility for the handling or maintenance of any baggage or other property, nor for any property left in the company’s vehicles. We will do everything possible to secure and retrieve any belongings left in the vehicle. Please always check thoroughly prior to leaving the vehicle for all your personal belongings.

Black Car & Limo Service reserves the right to refuse to transport persons under the influence of or in possession of illegal drugs, as well as those excessively intoxicated, in the possession of firearms or dangerous substances of any kind, or who are, or are likely to become objectionable to other persons or if the chauffeur feels threatened in any way. Under no circumstances are minors allowed to consume or possess alcohol or illegal substances while in a company vehicle. Client shall not interfere with the chauffeur in the discharge of his/her duty or tamper with any apparatus or appliance on the vehicle. In such instances, services will be terminated immediately and no refunds will be offered.

Excess Cleaning & Damage

If, during or after the transportation service, the company is required to expend an extended amount of time and material to clean the vehicle due to acts of the client or any passenger (i.e., spilling food & drinks, vomiting, prohibited smoking, excessive trash) , the company, at its discretion, will charge client additional fees to cover such expense. Damage to the vehicle in any way caused by actions of the client or any passenger will be charged in full to the client. The minimum clean up fee is $250.

Smoking Strictly Prohibited

Smoking in all vehicles is strictly prohibited. Smoking in the vehicle by the client or any passenger will result in an automatic minimum $250 charge. Damage caused by smoking activity will also be charged to the client.
