Published rates
What hourly car service costs in Los Angeles
Most Los Angeles operators selling hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles do not publish an hourly rate at all. Of the competing pages that could be read when this page was researched, one published a rate — and it arrived with a separate peak rate, a different minimum at weekends, a fuel surcharge and a charge for leaving the county. iRide360 publishes both executive car service Los Angeles rates, they are the rates the booking form itself returns, and there is one of each.
| Vehicle | Passengers · bags | Hourly rate | Minimum | Maximum | Included driving |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Executive sedan | 3 · 3 | From $75/hour | 3 hours | 18 hours | 20 miles per hour |
| Luxury SUV | 5 · 5 | From $100/hour | 3 hours | 18 hours | 20 miles per hour |
Because the standard rate is flat, the arithmetic is the whole story. A three-hour sedan booking is $225. Six hours is $450. A three-hour SUV booking is $300, and six hours is $600. The personal driver Los Angeles rate per hour does not change with the length of the booking, the day of the week, the hour of the night, or which part of Los Angeles County you are picked up in. There is no peak rate and no off-peak rate on an hourly chauffeur service booking, because there is only one rate.
What sits outside that arithmetic is special events and holidays. Rates for those dates may be different from the standard hourly rate, which is why $75 and $100 are published as fromfigures. Every other date in the year is the standard rate, ordinary weekends and overnight bookings included. Either way it is not a surcharge: the whole price is shown before you book, and it does not move afterwards. Call dispatch on (833) 743-3360 with your date and you will have the number before you commit to anything.
Three things are inside those figures that other operators add afterwards. Tolls and taxes are included — the number you are quoted is the number you are charged. There is no fuel surcharge and no out-of-area charge inside Los Angeles County. And gratuity is not baked in: it is offered at checkout at 15%, 18%, 20% or 25%, you can enter any custom amount including nothing at all, and it goes to your chauffeur.
What the published private driver Los Angeles rate does not cover is the next section, because a published rate that quietly omits its limits is not much better than no rate at all.

The whole picture
What the hourly rate includes, and what it does not
Twenty miles are included for every hour you book. A three-hour booking includes sixty miles of driving and a six-hour booking includes one hundred and twenty. Whether that is generous depends entirely on the shape of the day, and the arithmetic is easy to do in advance: an afternoon moving between Century City, Downtown and Beverly Hills covers well under sixty miles, because hourly time is spent waiting as much as driving. A booking that crosses the county and comes back does not.
The allowance matters on the itineraries that are genuinely long. A booking that runs Santa Monica to Pasadena to Claremont and back inside three hours is not really an hourly itinerary — it is a long drive on a clock — and the allowance is the signal that it should be priced differently. If your day looks like that, call iRide360 dispatch on (833) 743-3360 before you book and ask for it to be quoted as a point-to-point run or a longer booking instead. That is a cheaper conversation to have before the booking than after it.

Choosing the right booking
Hourly service or a point-to-point transfer?
Not every trip should be bought by the hour, and the honest answer is that a flat point-to-point fare is often the better buy. Here is how the two differ.
| Hourly, as-directed | Point-to-point transfer | |
|---|---|---|
| What you buy | A block of time, from 3 to 18 hours | One journey, from one address to another |
| What is priced | The hours, from $75 or $100 each | The trip, as one flat fare fixed at booking |
| Stops | As many as the hours allow | Extra stops priced for the added distance and time |
| The car between stops | Stays with you | Released at the drop-off |
| Driving included | 20 miles per booked hour | The whole route, however long |
| Suits | Several destinations, waiting time, a schedule that may move | A known trip with a known destination |
Book by the hour when your day has several destinations; when there is real waiting time between them; when you do not yet know when you will be ready to leave; when you want your belongings to stay in the car; or when the evening is dinner followed by something else.
Book a point-to-point transfer when you know where you are going and roughly how long it takes — an airport run, a single meeting, a one-way trip across town. Pay for the trip, not for the clock. iRide360's airport and route pages quote those fares directly, and for a long single run between cities, city-to-city pricing is usually the cheaper way to buy it — ask dispatch which applies to your trip.
One car, one chauffeur, your clock
How as-directed hourly car service works
As directed service is built around time rather than a route. With an iRide360 hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles booking you choose an executive sedan or a luxury SUV, choose how many hours you want, and give a pickup address and time. From that moment the vehicle and the chauffeur belong to your reservation. They are not shared with another passenger, and they do not leave to run another job while you are inside a meeting or a restaurant.
That is the whole difference, and it changes what you can do with the car. You can make as many stops as the time allows. You can leave a coat, a case or shopping in the vehicle between stops instead of carrying it. You can arrive at a second address without having booked a second trip. And you can change your mind: the destination list does not have to be settled when you book, because you are buying the hours, not the route.
A practical note on stops, from iRide360's own terms: stops you already know about should be added when you book, so the chauffeur has the itinerary and dispatch can size the time correctly. Adding one on the day is normal and fine - you simply tell the chauffeur - but a planned five-stop afternoon runs better when all five are on the booking.
Booking an executive car service Los Angeles day takes three steps. Open the booking form, choose “By the hour”, and enter the pickup address. Choose the number of hours, from three up to eighteen. Choose the sedan or the SUV, and the price appears before you commit to anything.
A driver at your disposal
Private driver, personal driver and chauffeur service Los Angeles
“Private driver” is what most people call this when they are not in the transportation business, and a private driver Los Angeles booking with iRide360 is hourly chauffeur service: a professional chauffeur, in a vehicle you did not have to park, for as long as you have booked them. A private chauffeur Los Angeles search, a chauffeur for a day Los Angeles request and a car service for a day Los Angeles inquiry all arrive at the same booking, and so does a Los Angeles car service VIP request.
The names matter only because the searches differ. A personal driver Los Angeles search usually means the same thing a private driver Los Angeles search means, and an executive car service Los Angeles search usually means the same thing again with a business day attached to it. There is one product underneath all of them: hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles, sold in whole hours at $75 for the executive sedan and $100 for the luxury SUV. A chauffeur service Los Angeles inquiry and a personal driver Los Angeles inquiry reach the same dispatch desk and the same published rate.
One distinction is worth drawing, because it changes what you are buying. Some personal driver Los Angeles companies drive your own car and charge for the driver alone. iRide360 does not: an executive car service Los Angeles booking here includes the vehicle, and the private driver Los Angeles chauffeur arrives in a black executive sedan or luxury SUV that iRide360 owns, insures and maintains under CPUC charter-party authority, TCP 43833-A.
What makes it a private driver rather than a ride is that the chauffeur stays. The car is not released at a drop-off and sent to another job; it waits, and it is at the door when you come out. On a day with several addresses that removes the parking, the circling and the garage you cannot get back into from the schedule entirely. That is the part a personal driver Los Angeles arrangement buys you and a point-to-point fare does not.
A single booking on the booking form is a complete transaction, made at the published rate, and the personal driver Los Angeles rate is the same on a first booking as on any other.
- Visitors: who want to see Los Angeles without driving it, and without being held to a tour route or a tour schedule.
- Several appointments: three or four in one afternoon, across different parts of the county.
- An evening out: when it has more than one destination in it.
- Families: who want the same car, with the same child seat already fitted, for a whole day out.
- Anyone on a clock: who does not want parking to be the reason they are late.
The length of the booking
Three hours to eighteen: booking a full day
An hourly chauffeur service booking with iRide360 runs from a three-hour minimum to an eighteen-hour maximum in a single day, and every whole number in between is available on the booking form - the Hours menu runs 3, 4, 5 and on up to 18.
Three hours is the common booking and the shortest one. It suits an evening out, a round of two or three appointments, or a single engagement with waiting time on both sides of it. At $225 for the sedan and $300 for the SUV, it buys three hours in which the car does not leave, plus sixty miles of driving.
Five to eight hours is a working day or a long evening - a morning of meetings that becomes lunch that becomes an afternoon, or a day of showings across the Westside. This is the length most executive car service Los Angeles bookings run to. Ten hours and beyond is a full private driver Los Angeles day with the car in attendance throughout, up to the eighteen-hour ceiling. Beyond that the booking becomes a second day rather than a longer one.
If the day runs long, the booking can be extended and the extra time is billed at the same hourly rate - $75 or $100 - with no surge and no penalty for extending. Whether the extension is possible on the day depends on the chauffeur's and vehicle's schedule after your booking, so if you suspect the day will overrun, booking the extra hour at the start is the surer route. Nothing about the rate changes either way.
Where hourly car service runs in Los Angeles
Hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles covers every city in the county at the same rate. There is no service zone, no per-city price and no travel surcharge for crossing the county, so a personal driver Los Angeles day in the South Bay costs what the same day in the San Fernando Valley costs.
Orange County, Ventura County and the Inland Empire are served regularly on the same basis. An itinerary that starts in the county and runs beyond it is a normal booking; ask dispatch on (833) 743-3360 how a day that sits mostly outside Los Angeles County should be priced, rather than assuming the hourly rate covers it unchanged.
The rate starts at $75 an hour for an executive sedan and $100 for a luxury SUV, with a three-hour minimum and 20 miles included in each hour. Rates for special events and holidays may be different from the standard rate. Tolls and taxes are inside those figures and gratuity is optional. iRide360 operates as a California CPUC charter-party carrier, TCP 43833-A, with its office in El Segundo.
Countywide, with one rate
Where hourly car service runs across Los Angeles County
iRide360's hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles coverage runs to all of Los Angeles County, and this is the part worth stating plainly because it is the thing people search for and rarely get answered: there is no hourly service zone, no per-city hourly rate and no local radius to check. The private driver Los Angeles rate is the same $75 or $100 an hour whether the pickup is in Santa Monica, Pasadena, Long Beach, Claremont or Whittier.
That is why there is one private driver Los Angeles page rather than fifty. For a service sold by the hour, a separate personal driver Los Angeles page for each city would state the same rate, the same minimum and the same allowance fifty times over, and would still tell a reader in Monrovia nothing a reader in Malibu did not already know. The areas served regularly include the Westside, the South Bay and harbour cities, Downtown and central Los Angeles, the San Gabriel Valley, the San Fernando Valley and the south-east of the county. Beyond the county line, iRide360 regularly serves Orange County, Ventura County and the Inland Empire; ask dispatch how an itinerary that leaves the county should be priced, because a long run out of the area is usually better bought as a transfer than by the hour.
An hourly car service Los Angeles airport booking can begin at any airport. All five Los Angeles airports are served — LAX, Hollywood Burbank (BUR), Long Beach (LGB), John Wayne (SNA) and Ontario (ONT) — plus Van Nuys (VNY) for private aviation. A booking that starts with an arriving flight gets the full sixty minutes of complimentary wait after the aircraft lands, and flight tracking moves the pickup with the delay at no charge.
If what you want is one trip rather than a block of time, these pages quote that fare directly:

- Los Angeles airport transfersThe other four airports, each with its own page.

Executive sedan and luxury SUV
The two vehicles, and what is not in the fleet
There are two vehicle classes and there is no third.
The executive sedan carries up to three passengers and three bags from $75 per hour. It is the right choice for one, two or three people and is the class most hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles bookings use. It is also the vehicle behind the phrase executive car service Los Angeles.
The luxury SUV carries up to five passengers and five bags from $100 per hour. Choose it for four or five passengers, for luggage that will not fit a sedan trunk, or for the extra room on a long private driver Los Angeles day.
Both are black, both are chauffeur-driven, and the capacities above are the ones the booking engine itself quotes — three seats and three bags, five seats and five. When a page quotes a capacity it is worth knowing where the number came from.
There is nothing larger. iRide360 runs no vans, no buses and no stretched vehicles. Five passengers on one vehicle is the ceiling, so a group bigger than that is not a booking this operator can take on a single car — though several vehicles on one reservation is available if that suits the day. For “hourly limousine service”, the honest description is this: iRide360 provides the private, chauffeured limousine experience in black executive sedans and luxury SUVs. It is not a stretched vehicle.
Executive sedan
Up to 3 passengers · 3 bags
From $75/hour — flat rate fixed at booking, tolls and taxes included, gratuity optional.
Luxury SUV
Up to 5 passengers · 5 bags
From $100/hour — flat rate fixed at booking, tolls and taxes included, gratuity optional.
The policies in plain terms
Waiting, stops and extras
- Waiting
- Two separate things are worth keeping apart. Inside your booked hours, waiting is what the hours are for, and no separate waiting charge applies on an hourly chauffeur service booking while the time you booked is running. At the pickup itself, an arriving flight carries sixty minutes of complimentary wait and then $1 per minute, and iRide360's terms state that an airport grace period begins at the actual landing time rather than the scheduled one. Any other pickup point carries fifteen minutes, which the booking form shows you before you reach a price.
- Stops
- As many as the hours allow. Put the ones you know about on the booking so dispatch can size the personal driver Los Angeles itinerary; add others on the day by telling the chauffeur.
- Child seats
- From $25 each, in booster, forward-facing and rear-facing. Request the seat with the booking so it is fitted before pickup rather than after. For a family day out this is one of the better reasons to book by the hour: the seat is fitted once and stays fitted for the whole booking.
- Pets
- $25. Service animals are never charged and never counted as a pet.
- Requests
- Anything else — a particular pickup point, a sign at an airport, a route preference — is taken at booking. Ask.
If the plan moves
Changing, extending or cancelling an hourly booking
Plans move, and iRide360's terms for moving an hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles booking are published rather than discretionary. They are the same terms on a personal driver Los Angeles day as on any other.
Cancelling is free, with a full refund to the original payment method, 24 hours or more before the scheduled pickup time. Changes can be made online up to 6 hours before pickup; inside six hours, call dispatch on (833) 743-3360 and a person will handle it. A cancellation made less than 24 hours before pickup is non-refundable, and the full amount paid, including gratuity, is charged.
Changing the details — the pickup time, the pickup address, the vehicle class — can be done online or through dispatch, and the price adjusts to match. Moving from a sedan to an SUV moves the rate from $75 to $100 an hour; moving the start time does not change the rate at all.
Extending is billed at the same hourly rate, with no surge and no extension penalty, subject to the chauffeur and vehicle being free after your booking.
Confirmation arrives by email, and that email is what confirms the reservation. Chauffeur and vehicle details are typically sent about twelve hours before pickup.
A factual comparison
Hourly service, rideshare and renting a car
These are different products with different pricing models. What follows is what iRide360 can state about its own service; where another company's product is named, no claim is made about its current features or prices, because those change.
| iRide360 hourly | Hourly rideshare | Renting a car for the day | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who drives | A professional chauffeur, screened and background-checked | A rideshare driver | You |
| The vehicle | An executive sedan or luxury SUV, black, reserved for you | Whatever the driver owns | Whatever the counter has |
| Licensing | CPUC charter-party carrier, TCP 43833-A | Platform terms | Rental agreement |
| What you pay for | Hours, at a flat published rate | Platform pricing | The day, plus fuel, parking and tolls |
| Tolls and taxes | Inside the rate | Per the platform | On you |
| Gratuity | Optional at checkout, 15–25% or nothing | Per the platform | — |
| Parking | Not your problem | Not your problem | Your problem, repeatedly |
| Waiting between stops | What the hours are for | Per the platform | — |
The comparison that usually matters for a multi-stop Los Angeles day is the last column rather than the middle one. A rental hands you the car and also hands you the parking structures, the valet queues, the fuel, the tolls and the stretch of Wilshire you will drive four times. A private driver Los Angeles booking is the other trade: you do none of that, the chauffeur does, and the price is fixed before you start. That is what people are really comparing when they weigh executive car service Los Angeles against a rental counter.

What guests say about iRide360
iRide360 is rated 5.0 on Google from 26 five-star reviews. The four below are quoted exactly as written.
“Hands down the best service we’ve ever received (and we now use them a lot). Always on time, clean car, and pleasant. We have a toddler and there is always a luxury car seat available whenever we request it. Thank you so much for always helping our family get to where we need to be safely and on time!!”
“Absolutely outstanding service from start to finish! The entire experience was seamless, professional, and exceeded my expectations. Karan is always punctual, courteous, professional, and incredibly accommodating. The vehicle is always spotless and very well maintained. It’s rare to find a car service that is this reliable and genuinely committed to providing excellent customer service. I would highly recommend Karan to anyone looking for a professional, dependable, and top-tier car service. My friends and family also use him and have nothing but good things to say. 10/10!”
“I’ve been using Karan for a long time, and he is hands down the best in the business. He’s reliable, his cars are always clean, and the service is consistently exceptional. His prices are great, especially for the quality of service he provides. He’s the only driver I use because I know I can always count on him. I can’t recommend Karan highly enough!”
“KG and his team are the absolute best. Timely services, clean and luxurious vehicles, and flexibility for curbside or full pick-up service with a sign. These guys have you covered and we've been using them for years - do yourself a favor and call them.”
Who books it
When to book hourly car service in Los Angeles
Hourly car service is the right purchase when the clock matters more than the route. These are the days an hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles booking is built for, and the ones where a flat transfer fare is the better buy are in the comparison above. Each of them is bookable as a private driver Los Angeles reservation at the same published hourly chauffeur service rate.
- A roadshow or a day of meetings
- Three or four addresses across the county, with waiting between them. This is the classic executive car service Los Angeles day, and it is the reason the three-hour minimum rarely binds — a morning of meetings is usually five hours before anyone has planned it that way.
- A visitor who does not want to drive LA
- A personal driver Los Angeles booking for a day of sightseeing, without a tour route or a tour schedule. You pick the stops as the day goes, and the private driver Los Angeles rate does not change because you changed your mind.
- An evening with more than one stop
- Dinner and then something else. A private driver Los Angeles evening removes the second booking, the valet queue and the question of who is driving home. Three hours of hourly chauffeur service is usually enough for it.
- A family day out
- The child seat is fitted once and stays fitted for the whole booking. On a day of three separate rides it would be fitted three times, or not at all.
- A wedding, a premiere or a shoot
- Any day with a start time, an unpredictable end time, and a car that has to be outside when it finishes. Hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles is the only way to buy that certainty.
- An hourly car service Los Angeles airport day
- A booking that starts at a landing and continues into the city — an arrival, a hotel, then two appointments before the day ends. It is one hourly chauffeur service booking rather than three transfers.

Each guide links back to this page, because the decision and the booking are two halves of the same question.

Answers before you travel
Hourly car service in Los Angeles: frequently asked questions
- What is hourly car service?
- Hourly car service, also called as directed service or hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles, reserves one chauffeur and one vehicle for a block of time rather than for a single journey. Booking car service by the hour is what an hourly car service near me search is usually after. The vehicle stays with you between stops instead of being released at a drop-off, so you can keep the car while you are in a meeting or a restaurant and decide the next destination as the day goes on. iRide360 books it in whole hours, from three to eighteen hours in a day.
- How much is hourly car service in Los Angeles?
- The car service hourly rate starts at $75 per hour for an executive sedan and $100 per hour for a luxury SUV, including an hourly car service Los Angeles airport pickup. Both have a three-hour minimum, so the smallest booking is $225 for a sedan or $300 for an SUV. iRide360 is not a cheap hourly car service Los Angeles listing and does not compete on the lowest number; it competes on the number not moving once you have booked it. The standard rate is flat: six hours is $450 or $600, with no peak-hour and no weekend rate. Rates for special events and holidays may be different. Tolls and taxes are included and gratuity is optional at checkout.
- How much does hourly car service cost in Los Angeles?
- The cost starts at $75 an hour for an executive sedan and $100 an hour for a luxury SUV. With the three-hour minimum, the lowest cost for an hourly car service Los Angeles booking is $225 for the sedan and $300 for the SUV. A six-hour day costs $450 or $600. Those hourly car service Los Angeles prices include tolls and taxes, and the cost does not rise at night, at weekends or with demand, because there is no surge. Rates for special events and holidays are the exception and may be different from the standard rate.
- How much does a personal driver cost in Los Angeles?
- A personal driver Los Angeles booking with iRide360 costs from $75 an hour with an executive sedan or from $100 an hour with a luxury SUV, with a three-hour minimum. There is no separate personal driver rate: a personal driver Los Angeles day and an hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles day are the same booking at the same published cost, and the whole cost is shown on the booking form before you commit.
- Can you hire someone to drive you around Los Angeles?
- Yes. That is exactly what this is. You hire a private driver Los Angeles booking by the hour, from three hours to eighteen, and the chauffeur and the vehicle stay with you for the whole block rather than dropping you and leaving. You do not need to own a car for it, and the chauffeur drives an iRide360 executive sedan or luxury SUV rather than your own vehicle.
- How much should I pay for a driver in Los Angeles?
- For a licensed, insured, background-checked chauffeur in a black executive sedan, $75 an hour is where iRide360 starts and what the booking form returns for a standard booking. Published executive car service Los Angeles rates elsewhere in the city run from roughly $55 to $138 an hour, and the ones at the bottom of that range usually add a peak rate, a weekend minimum, a fuel surcharge or an out-of-area charge afterwards. What you should pay is a rate you are shown in full before you book and that does not move after you book.
- What is the difference between hourly car service and chauffeur service Los Angeles?
- Nothing, as products. A chauffeur service Los Angeles search and an hourly car service search both end at the same booking: one chauffeur, one vehicle, a block of time. The phrase chauffeur service Los Angeles describes who drives; hourly car service describes how it is sold. iRide360 sells it by the hour, at $75 or $100, from three hours to eighteen.
- Can I book a private driver for the day in Los Angeles?
- Yes. A private driver for the day Los Angeles booking is an hourly booking of eight, ten or twelve hours - up to the eighteen-hour ceiling - at the same $75 or $100 an hour. Nothing about the car service hourly rate changes because the day is long.
- What is the minimum booking?
- Three hours, for both the executive sedan and the luxury SUV.
- What is the longest I can book?
- Eighteen hours in one day. The booking form's Hours menu runs from 3 to 18. A longer engagement is arranged as two days rather than one booking.
- How many miles are included in the hourly rate?
- Twenty miles for every hour you book - sixty miles on a three-hour booking, one hundred and twenty on a six-hour booking. Add up the distance between your destinations before you book: a day moving around the Westside or between Downtown and Beverly Hills sits well inside the allowance, while a booking that crosses the county and returns may not. If your itinerary will clearly go beyond it, call dispatch on (833) 743-3360 and ask to have it quoted first.
- What happens if I go over the included miles?
- iRide360 dispatch will quote the itinerary before you book. The amount charged for additional miles is not published on this page because it is not shown on the quote screen, and this page does not publish numbers it has not read.
- Can I make multiple stops?
- Yes, as many as the booked hours allow, which is the main reason people book a private driver Los Angeles day instead of separate rides. Stops you already know about should be added when you book so the chauffeur has the itinerary; others can be added on the day by telling the chauffeur.
- Is there a surge or peak rate?
- No. The hourly rate is flat and fixed when you book, and it does not change with the time of day, the day of the week or demand. That holds whether the booking is sold as hourly car service, as hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles or as a personal driver Los Angeles day - it is one rate card. Rates for special events and holidays are the one exception and may be different from the standard rate.
- Are tolls and taxes included?
- Yes. Tolls and taxes are included in the quoted rate.
- Is gratuity included?
- No, and that is deliberate - gratuity is chosen by you at checkout, at 15%, 18%, 20% or 25%, or any custom amount including nothing. It goes to your chauffeur.
- Can I extend the booking if the day runs long?
- Yes, at the same hourly rate, with no surge and no extension penalty on a private driver Los Angeles booking. Whether an extension is available on the day depends on the chauffeur's schedule after your booking, so if you expect to overrun, booking the extra hour in advance is more certain.
- What is the cancellation policy?
- Cancellation is free, with a full refund to your original payment method, 24 hours or more before the scheduled pickup time. Inside 24 hours it is non-refundable and the full amount paid, including gratuity, is charged. Changes can be made online up to 6 hours before pickup; inside 6 hours, call dispatch on (833) 743-3360.
- Which vehicles are available by the hour?
- Two: an executive sedan for up to three passengers and three bags from $75 per hour, and an hourly SUV service Los Angeles booking for up to five passengers and five bags from $100 per hour. Both are an hourly black car service in the ordinary sense of the phrase. There is no third class. iRide360 runs no vans, no buses and no stretched vehicles.
- Can I get hourly limousine service?
- An hourly limo service Los Angeles search usually means a stretch. What iRide360 provides as an hourly limo service is the private, chauffeured limousine experience in black executive sedans and luxury SUVs, bookable by the hour. It is not a stretched vehicle, and there is nothing larger than the five-passenger SUV.
- Do you serve my city?
- Hourly service covers every city in Los Angeles County at the same hourly rate - there is no service zone and no per-city pricing, whether the booking is a town car service Los Angeles run across town or a roadshow car service Los Angeles day with a dozen addresses. Orange County, Ventura County and the Inland Empire are served regularly; ask dispatch how an itinerary outside the county should be priced.
- Can an hourly booking start at the airport?
- Yes, at LAX, Hollywood Burbank, Long Beach, John Wayne, Ontario, or Van Nuys for private aviation. A booking that begins with an arriving flight includes sixty minutes of complimentary wait after the aircraft lands, and flight tracking moves the pickup with the delay at no charge.
- How long will the chauffeur wait at pickup?
- Sixty minutes after an arriving flight lands, then $1 per minute. At any other pickup point, fifteen minutes. Inside the booking itself, waiting is what the hours are for and carries no separate charge.
- Are child seats available?
- Yes, from $25 each, in booster, forward-facing and rear-facing. Request the seat with the booking so it is fitted before pickup. On an hourly booking it is fitted once and stays fitted for the whole reservation.
- Can I bring a pet?
- Yes, for a $25 pet fee. Service animals are never charged and are not counted as pets.
- What is included in the car?
- Complimentary Fiji bottled water, onboard Wi-Fi and phone charging, on every hourly chauffeur service booking and every personal driver Los Angeles booking alike.
- Should I book hourly or a point-to-point transfer?
- Hourly, when the day has several destinations, real waiting time, or an end time you cannot predict. A point-to-point transfer, when you know the destination and roughly how long the trip takes - an airport run or a single journey is cheaper bought as one flat fare, and a long run beyond the county is usually cheaper still as a city-to-city trip.
- Can I hire a private driver for a day in Los Angeles?
- Yes. A full-day booking is simply a longer hourly booking - up to eighteen hours in one day, at the same $75 or $100 per hour. A single booking on the booking form is a complete transaction.
- Is hourly service available at night and at weekends?
- Yes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Hourly chauffeur service Los Angeles runs overnight and at weekends at the standard rate, with no night rate and no weekend rate, and dispatch is staffed around the clock on (833) 743-3360. Special events and holidays are covered too, and rates for those dates may be different from the standard rate.
- Who are the chauffeurs?
- Chauffeurs are screened and background-checked, and drive for a California CPUC charter-party carrier, TCP 43833-A, licensed and insured. Every private driver Los Angeles booking and every executive car service Los Angeles booking is covered by that same authority.
- Does the chauffeur stay with me during the booking?
- Yes. For the whole booking the vehicle and chauffeur are assigned to your reservation only. They are not shared with another passenger and are not sent to another job between your stops. That is the difference between a personal driver Los Angeles booking and a sequence of separate rides.
- Can I change the vehicle after booking?
- Yes, online or through dispatch, and the price adjusts. Moving from the executive sedan to the luxury SUV moves the rate from $75 to $100 per hour for the whole booking.
- When do I find out who my chauffeur is?
- Chauffeur and vehicle details are typically sent about twelve hours before pickup. The reservation itself is confirmed by email when it is made.
- Is the hourly rate different at night or at weekends?
- No. The standard rate applies at every hour of the day and on every ordinary day of the week. There is no peak rate, no night rate and no surge. Rates for special events and holidays may be different.
- Are rates different for special events and holidays?
- They may be. Rates for special events and holidays can differ from the standard hourly rate, which is why the published $75 and $100 are from rates. Every other date is the standard rate, ordinary weekends and overnight bookings included. Whatever the date, the price is shown in full before you book and does not move afterwards. Call dispatch on (833) 743-3360 with your date.
