Rent-A-Chauffeur: The New Spin On The Car Hire Service
Written by MichaelZ on April 10, 2009 – 11:38 pm -Nowadays, car rentals are as common as having your own car. It is a luxury that many have used when they travel out of town or when their car has been put out of commission for whatever reason. If you have the time, you can rent a car over the phone. Alternatively, if you want to rent a car on the go, you can go online to make a reservation. Local car rentals can be found in major cities, airports, and other convenient locations. Hertz, Avis, Budget, and Enterprise Rent-A-Car are a few of the more popular car rental companies that are nationwide.
Avis two years ago introduced a new concept were you can rent a chauffeur with your car. It is only a limited service so far catering to about 10 large cities such as Los Angeles and New York. You must also give the company 24 hours notice if you intend to hire a chauffeur. The charges are about $30 an hour and have a three hour minimum. Customers are billed through a company called WeDriveU which is separate from Avis. The service should appeal to the business executives of all levels. While aimed at mid-level execs, any business person that lands into a small airport that does not offer car rentals should be interested.
After the travelers flight lands, he or she does not have to pick up their rental vehicles. He can request to be picked up by the chauffeur outside an airport terminal or have the chauffeur come inside to pick up their bags. The executive can also decide to release the chauffeur whenever he pleases and drive the car himself.
In the UK, chauffeur hire companies are well established and quite separate, in the minds of consumers, from the traditional car hire firms. It is easier to find a UK chauffeur company to hire a chauffeur than it is in the US. They are available to pick you from any UK airport. Companies like gatwick airport transfers will even provide chauffeurs who are also expert tour guides that will help you to explore any UK city.
