What to expect
With your flight number in the booking, we know when you land, early or late. Ahead of pickup, your phone receives a text with your chauffeur's name and number and the car to look for.
Pick up your bags and call or text, and the car pulls up at the arrivals curb. Prefer to be met inside? Meet-and-greet puts your chauffeur in baggage claim with a sign bearing your name, for a fee that shows in your quote.
Then it is down the Peninsula to Palo Alto. We leave the timing to the traffic and never promise a number of minutes.
