How to Organise a Reliable Airport Transfer..

A woman arriving at Montreal Airport in the middle of a snow storm was looking forward to slipping into the comfortable warm interior of the limousine she had organised weeks before she left for a trip to Mexico. However, with severe storms her plane was delayed from pulling up to the gates of the airport for over five hours and her limousine left without her.

The woman was a foster mother and was taking her family, along with other guardians for a holiday in Cancun to escape the winter in Montreal for a week. The group of 11 missed their limousine by minutes after finally emerging from the airport terminal to find their chauffeur had been dispatched to another pickup and left them behind.

At 11 pm in the middle of the storm the woman, who organises this trip every year and pays for it all with her own money, spent another three hours trying to call the 24 hour hotline of the limo hire company to find out where her limousine was. After giving up at 2 am, she joined the long, slow moving line with the other passenger waiting for a taxi.

However, it wasn’t until 6 am the following morning that the group was able to find two minivans to transport all 11 people. The limo hire company operator had the 24 hour hotline diverted to his cell phone, which unfortunately went flat late on the night that the group was stranded at the airport.

Before his cell went flat, the limo hire company operator was able to call his chauffeur who was to meet the group at the airport and tell him to do another pick up after seeing the flight he was supposed to be meeting was delayed.

While the night was subject to an unfortunate series of events, the limousine chauffeur should have done more than just check the arrivals board. Before leaving, you should expect the chauffeur of your airport transfer limousine to enquire about how long your flight is delayed for. In doing this, they are likely to find out that your plane has actually arrived and is waiting on the tarmac for a safe time to move towards the gates.

In this case, or in finding out when your flight can be expected, your limousine chauffeur should wait until you arrive to take you home or to your hotel as this is what they have been hired to so.
