We are not the type of company that likes to charge for late cancellations. We only have the cancellation policy in place for the respect of the chauffeurs. When a reservation is made, we no longer take any more trips for that vehicle in that specific time slot. If a last minute cancellation occurs, then our company and the chauffeur have lost that business and any other potential business.

1. Our clients appreciate the convenience of prepaid gratuity and not having to worry about having cash on hand.
2. The gratuity is prepaid at 20%, but if you feel your experience was not worthy of 20%, we will refund your entire gratuity with no questions asked.
3. Safety of our chauffeurs and clients is always a priority. Another reason we prepay the gratuity is to minimize the amount of cash that is in our vehicles.
4. Our clients also like the fact that gratuity on the card can be written off and kept track of. While cash gratuity can be a hassle when keeping track of business expenses.
5. If you do not want to prepay your gratuity, that is not a problem. Please let the dispatcher know and we will make a note that “client will tip in cash” once the trip has been completed.

1. Our vehicles are vacuumed and washed multiple times throughout the day and detailed on a regular basis.
2. Our vehicles have all passed multi-point inspections and go through various rigorous tests on a regular basis.
3. Vehicle maintenance is one of the top priorities for our black car service because it directly has to do with chauffeur and client safety. We don’t just do maintenance, we do preventative maintenance. All of our cars are maintained regularly and kept to the highest standards.

1. For starters, our chauffeurs are professionals and catering to your needs is their only priority.
2. They are well dressed, groomed, and held to the highest standards.

With Uber/Lyft none of the above is guaranteed. Your chauffeur could have minimal experience and his/her car could be under-maintained. They are not held to any standards and they do not have the proper insurance in case of an accident.

There are many reasons why high-level executives, business owners, and entrepreneurs from San Diego (and all around the world) adore black car services:

2. Convenience: You don’t have to worry about finding your way through an unfamiliar city or, even worse, looking for a parking spot;
3. Luxury: Modern black cars are equipped with every amenity you might need on a short or long trip;
4. Safety: Luxury rides are exceptionally well-maintained and the chauffeur never leaves them out of sight, so you’ll be safe during travels, and your belongings will remain secure, even if you’re not in the car;
5. Style: Every businessperson knows that first impression matters and there’s no better way to make an entrance than in a state-of-the-art vehicle.
