We are fully permitted to serve you at Cleveland Hopkins Airport (CLE). The airport charges limo services like us $4 each time our vehicles enter their property: This charge is included as a pass-through fee on your airport trips.
Your chauffeur can drop you off curbside at the door closest to your airline’s ticket counter (if you need to get tickets or check bags) or else drop you at either door 3 or 4 in the center which each serve the central security checkpoint that is exclusively for TSA Precheck and CLEAR passengers.
We offer the following pickup options for you at CLE:
Curbside downstairs at Arrivals/Baggage Claim (default) - Your chauffeur will be as close as possible to the set of doors serving the baggage claim carousel for your flight
Curbside upstairs at Departures/Ticketing - Let us know if you do not have any checked bags and you can save yourself a few steps by bypassing the escalators down to baggage claim and exiting directly out to your waiting chauffeur. Please note that with later arriving flights (sometimes 10:00 pm and on?), only the central TSA security area will be open for you to exit through. This would put you outside closest to door 4 of the upper level, by the JetBlue ticketing counter.
“Meet and Greet” - This extra service has an additional fee of $20, but allows the chauffeur to park in the limo lot and enter CLE airport to meet you at baggage claim. Your chauffeur will have a sign with your name on it for easy identification and will assist you with your luggage. Please note that this will require extra walking back to the limo lot where the chauffeur has parked, unless you then request the chauffeur to pull around curbside for you, which usually can take around 5 minutes.

We understand that sometimes situations are fluid and will require changes to a limo reservation mid-trip. We will do our best to accommodate such changes, but may not always be possible if doing so will interfere with another reservation that the chauffeur has after yours.
Depending on the nature of the change, there will likely be additional charges. For further information on how we handle and charge any changes, please refer to our “Terms & Conditions”.
-
Should you have any edits to a quote or an upcoming reservation, we will make every effort to accomodate you. Please communicate any changes as far in advance as you can to aid in our efforts.
For your convenience, there is a “Request Changes” button near the top of your reservation or quote confirmation link. You may click that and do such things as:
Adjust the pickup or drop off date/time
Change the pickup or drop off address or airport
Edit any flight details
Add another stop onto the trip
Once you would make any changes and click the blue “Request Changes” button at the bottom, your changes will be sent to us for review and confirmation. If approved, your original reservation link will be updated with the latest details.

You can easily contact your chauffeur directly prior to a trip or during a trip. Here’s how:
Click into your limo reservation confirmation link that was emailed or texted
Scroll and click on the “View Ride Status” box below the trip summary map

A blue Text bubble icon - Just click and it will launch your text messager so you can send a message
A blue Phone icon - Just click on it to launch a phone call prompt to place a direct call
Please note that ANY other method of trying to contact your chauffeur may not actually produce the intended results. Instead, you may accidentally be sending a chat message or text directly to our Dispatcher or main office number. When this occurs, you may not get the proper and timely response you are expecting.

Typically, your reservation will be one of the following types:
Hourly - This trip type gives you full freedom to come and go from the vehicle on your own schedule. You would reserve for the total time needed and your chauffeur will stay nearby and ready for you to be on the move. This is usually chosen and ideal for reservations with multiple stops throughout a reservation, a roundtrip that takes the chauffeur far enough from the garage to where it is inefficient to do a transfer/point-to-point, or for trips in areas or venues that don’t allow the chauffeur to come and go at will (like Blossom Music Center or FirstEnergy Stadium).
Transfer/Point-To-Point - As it sounds, this is a one-way trip taking you from a designated pickup location to a separate dropoff location. Airport trips are prime examples of transfers. Some events or nights out may be able to be handled as transfers, but this will ultimately be at our discretion based on such factors as day of week, time of day, general chauffeur availability, and length of time between the dropoff and subsequent pickup.
In an effort to increase flexibility and be as fair as possible to our customers and chauffeurs alike, we have recently introduced an alternative trip type for very specific and approved instances only:
“Hybrid” - Your trip begins with a transfer. Then, we will collaborate on a total hourly window (minimum of 2 hours) that works for everyone on the return trip. This will allow for a more relaxed time at your initial reservation without having to worry about meeting a specific return deadline. This may also mean that 2 separate chauffeurs will service your reservation, though. So, just in case, nothing can be left behind in the vehicle after the initial transfer.
To choose the amount of time needed for the hybrid window, we will need to take into account such things as the general end time of your dinner/evening/event (which can vary wildly, understandably), drive time to your dropoff location, and any potential stops along the way.
For example, let’s say you live in Westlake and are going to a Cleveland Cavaliers game. We will still need to pay the chauffeur to wait and come back for you if we were to just do a transfer. But, as a hybrid, you would pay for the direct trip to Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse and then we’d figure the proper hourly for the return. If the game starts at 7:00 pm, it is likely to end by around 9:15-9:30. If it is a blowout, you might want to leave a little early, or it could go into overtime and you may want to stay until the very end. This easily can create an actual pickup window by itself that varies by at least an hour. Add to that the 25 minute drive back to Westlake and now you have at least 35 minutes of additional buffer in case you stop to the souvenir stand, head to the restroom, or generally take your time exiting the Fieldhouse. So, we could set the pickup time for the return trip as 8:45 pm and as long as you are dropped off by 10:45 pm (leaving no later than 10:20 pm), there would be no additional charges for you. Please note that drive times from and to our garage (in Downtown Cleveland) are not included in this hourly number that we would figure, but they ARE included in the overall calculated hourly rate.
For additional pricing information please refer to “Billing”, “Miscellaneous”, “Overages & Wait Times”, and “Trip Updates” within our “Terms & Conditions”.
