subject: How Will I Find And Know Who My Limo Chauffeur Is At The Airport? [print this page] When you're flying into Nashville on business, it's important to know where you'll locate your limo chauffeur at BNA. Every traveler these days is aware that since 9/11, Homeland Security has tightened down on many aspects of airport security. So gone are the days of executive transportation when your limo driver was able to meet you at the gate, holding a sign with your name.
Although some companies may still provide the "meet & greet" inside the airport service in certain areas, it's not common practice by a long shot. The only way they could swing that is if they have an extra person along for the ride who can meet you in the baggage area while the chauffeur stays with the car. Just like anyone else picking up or dropping off someone at the airport, chauffeurs are required not to leave their vehicle unattended.
So basically, be prepared to locate your limo curbside, after getting your luggage. This means making sure you have established an agreed upon waiting place with the limo company in advance. This way you can meet your chauffeur, climb in and relax while he or she loads your luggage, then just, sit back and enjoy the luxury of executive transportation. It's also going to be a good idea to have the limo company's number, and if possible, the driver's number, so you can call from your cell phone, just in case there may have been any unforeseen change in plans.
Other pre-planning tips include informing your executive transportation company in advance as to how many bags you'll have along. That way they'll be sure to send the proper sized vehicle with adequate storage.Should your flight be delayed (which seems to be happening more frequently all the time these days) do your best to give the limo company in Nashville a heads up as to what time your flight is due in, so you'll be able to rest assured your chauffeur and executive transportation will be there when you are. If you wish to keep your costs to a minimum on the rental of your executive transportation, you might wish to inquire whether the limo company offers shared ride services. In other words, are you willing to share you limo with some other passengers who need to be picked up or dropped off at the same time?
Making sure that you have all your ducks in a row when booking your limo transportation to and from BNA can save you a lot of money. Instead of wandering around aimlessly (racking up more costly rental time), and being,unsure of where your driver will be meeting you, take detailed notes about where the limo company has instructed you to go for your pick-up at the airport and make sure you have them handy when you land. Welcome to Nashville, and enjoy your stay!
