There are significant differences between ride-sharing and luxury black car services. Ride-sharing apps may be cheaper, but they come at the cost of service and safety. Below are the significant differences between the two.
Do you know who is driving you?
When you book a ride with rideshare, do you know who is driving you? Uber does not require drivers to have insurance. Unlike professional limousine drivers, rideshare companies do not require fingerprint and background check that limousine drivers are required to have. Our Newark Airport limousine service carries full insurance. Drivers are all drug tested regularly, and background checked to making your safety our top priority.
Rideshare does not wait for you
Did you know the ridesharing companies do not wait around for you? When you are on a business trip, with a tight schedule, you need to have a reliable company. Driver to check your flight time and safely take you to your destination. On the other hand, a rideshare driver could cancel your ride at any time for any reason. Rideshare drivers are well known for canceling trips due to traffic and weather. When you use American City Express for your transportation, we will send you a late model vehicle, experienced, and well-dressed driver. We never refuse service because we do not feel like a long drive, or we do not want to get stuck in the city traffic. We put all our efforts to satisfy your travel needs.
Customer Service
Unlike rideshare, we believe in customer service. If for any reason, you need to get in touch with our dispatcher or reservationist, our toll-free number is available seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
Weather
Ride-share companies take advantage of you if you are in desperate need of service. When there is snow or rain, along comes with it the surge pricing. They are notorious for charging you ten times the price due to weather. They refer to it as surge pricing. American City Express, on the other hand, is transparent pricing. The price we quote is the price you pay. We never go back and raise our rates just because of rain or snow.
Vehicles
American City Express takes pride in its quality of service. We only use late-model luxury cars. Our cars are well maintained, and we will not send you an unsafe vehicle. All our cars are less than four years old and meticulously maintained. Suppose a business client needs pickup at the airport, do you want a beaten-up Toyota Prius and a driver in blue jeans and purple hair? Our vehicles are inspected every year as opposed to the no regulation for safety, followed by the rideshare industry. Some of the cars used by the drivers at rideshare make old yellow cabs look like Mercedes S550. Many vehicles servicing ridesharing, lack proper maintenance, insurance, and safety mechanism.
Business travelers make the right choice. For all your transportation needs to or from the airport, choose American City Express. We are Corporate travel experts.
