The driver himself was excellent and really considerate. I paid for a car that will suit us and our luggage. The front seat was not available as a fridge was on that seat. Imagine having 5 people and no where to seat. BUT very disappointed that you guys charged me for a waiting time that is beyond our control. I will really rethink using you guys again.

We got picked up from the Rome airport for a 2 hour and 45 minute drive to Tuscany and not once did the driver offer us a bottle of water. It was the middle of summer, boiling hot day and during the transit from one city to another, catching a flight to Rome to get picked up by a Chauffer service and not offered even a bit of water is a disgrace !

Disappointed as when I arrived in Naples there was no one holding a sign with my name. I kind of panicked as I never was in Naples airport before. I then received a text that said a driver was there to pick me up but no one showed up. I started walking around where the drivers with signs of other people and asked a woman. She fortunately knew I was on her list but again no sign. The driver I was texted about; she told me was switched. I then thought it was a scam but fortunately she said to trust her. I told her I already paid for this and there better not be another charge. She assured me there would not be. It was all very confusing.

When I landed in JFK, I had to wait morebthan 45 min for the cab after reaching the exit. The greeter was not seen. Neither did he greet after I eventually found him. It was a pain. Never expected this from emirates.

Make sure you do your research ahead of doing your first booking. They moved my family into a different vehicle class without notifying us first. We expected the mercedes and didn't get it in the end. This is very misleading.

I did not personally use your service, but I paid for your service to transport 2 friends from LAX Southwest Airlines to the Cambria LAX Hotel. Unfortunately, I was informed by the 2 people who did use your service that the driver arrived in a timely manner, but he apparently, while driving to the hotel, received a phone call for additional work and requested, rather rude, for his passengers to be quiet so that he could her. This was very unprofessional. As a result, I will not be utilizing your service anytime in the future.

I paid for a meet and greet for my wife because she had lots of bags to carry. The driver text her and said to meet her at the curb because parking and walking takes too long. This should have been communicated prior to the booking.

I’m writing to express our disappointment with the service we received during our recent trip. We booked two car transfers between Boston Logan Airport and Great Barrington (round trip). Unfortunately, our experience fell short of expectations. Upon our arrival at Boston Logan, our flight was delayed due to a plane parking issue. Despite informing both the driver and your central dispatch by phone, no driver was present when we exited the airport. We were left waiting over an hour for a replacement, which led to complications with our hotel check-in and a very disrupted night. For our return trip, we attempted to change the pickup address in advance, but this change was not honored. The driver went to the original location, and we had to rush to meet him there, which caused additional stress. One of the main reasons I rely on professional drivers during business trips is to save time and ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. Unfortunately, this was not the case on this occasion.

When we landed in Amsterdam our driver was 10 minutes late. Not really a problem but, quite q walk to the vehicle. Second pick-up The driver could not get to the hotel because of partial construction on the side street. The concierge had to tell him to go around the street to get to the hotel We were charged 6 Euros and told we were late. I requested a ride to our cruise ship, not realizing their were two terminals in Amsterdam.. When the driver called he told me the ship had been diverted. I panicked and placed multiple calls to our cruise line. It had not been diverted and always went to the same terminal. He refused take us to the correct one and left us at the ferry terminal. Took a taxi to the cruise ship terminal for 140 Euros. He was also rude and claimed I had requested cancelling the ride, which is untrue. Our third pick up at the Copenhagen Terminal went smoother, but not without several calls about which terminal and that he could not find us. I had texted him the night before arrival with the exact terminal information the cruise line had given me. All in all a VERY frustrating experience.

We have used Blacklane in the past and been happy with the service. But the LGA pick up was horrible. It started with the wrong written instructions about where to go, then the driver texting an old phone number rather than the one I used to book the service, and lastly with the driver condescending to my husband once we finally met up with him. I doubt we will use the service in the future.

While I had to edit my pick up address a couple of times between two locations (more than an hour prior), each time I made the change, my fare went up $50, however, the locations were less than two miles from each other and my final pick up location was also my original location, yet the same pick up was now $100 more than the original quote. unfortunately, in addition, the car did not smell clean. The driver was personable and kind...and the ride showed up on time, but the experience was less than acceptable.
