Here are a few basic rules of limousine etiquette you might want to
consider when riding a limousine whether it’s an airport limo transfer,
hourly rental, wedding limo service or any other type of limousine
rental.
First, a limousine is meant to be a sophisticated, civilized experience
that symbolizes class and a certain level of sophistication. For this
reason it is not a good idea to dive or leap into the limo. It is also
customary for women to be let into the limousine first and also let out
first. The male passenger must also hold the door open for the female
passengers. The female passenger must also be careful not to flash
people (as many of us have seen Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton do) when
they get out of a limousine. When getting into a limousine it is
customary for a women to get in sideways by crossing one leg over
another and not bend over and crawl in.
If the limousine has been specifically designated as a non-smoking
limousine make an effort not to smoke in it.
If you are considering having an insulting, loud or rude verbal exchange
of any kind. The limo driver should not be subjected to any type of
verbal abuse or intimate scenes.
If you have some predetermined expectations for your chauffeur you may
need to outline those to the limo rental company prior to placing a
reservation. For instance, not all limousine drivers are expected to
leave the car to open a door for a passenger. If you want make sure your
limousine chauffeur does this or does other things like serve you
champagne then make sure that it is all mentioned in your rental
contract.
If you are planning to drive around and party in your limo it is also a
good idea to put your garbage in designated containers. This is because
you can be charged extra if your garbage stains or smells up the
limousine to the point where it needs a professional cleaning.
At the end of your trip don’t forget to tip the limousine driver.
Limousine chauffeur are typically tipped between fifteen and twenty
percent of the total bill for the limousine unless they have performed
less than satisfactorily. In theory you don’t have to tip at all if you
feel that the limo driver has done something to endanger your personally
or driving unsafely. You also don’t have to tip the driver if he shows
up extremely late to pick you up to go to your destination. You can also
ask for your money back if you miss a plane because of a limo driver’s
delayed arrival for an airport transfer. |
