As an executive assistant, arranging ground transportation for your employer can be quite a task. Regardless if you are new to the ground transportation industry or not, we understand this can be daunting. No need to worry though, that is why we are here!
Ground transportation offers a few options that vary by location. Bigger cities have more options than smaller ones, and typically these are your options:
Taxi
A taxi offers a great option in more metropolitan areas, as long as your employer does not require a more high-end service. Cost efficient, taxis provide the basic service of getting you from Point A to Point B. If your employer is flying into a more remote area, be sure to call ahead of time to verify there is a taxi service available.
Rideshare
An extremely popular option today, rideshares offer a low-cost transport option in metropolitan areas. In larger cities, there are typically plenty of drivers available to get your employer where they need to be. Some things to keep in mind when relying on this service:
Car Service
Last on our list but not least, is car service. Car service is a great option for your less price-sensitive employers. Although this option can be costly, it has a lot of features that many executive assistants and their employers value. This ground transportation option is significantly more dependable, safe, efficient, and luxurious than other options. For this reason, many executive travelers lean towards these types of services.
Every city will have different options, so it’s important to research to find what’s best for your boss (and you). If you are booking ground transportation and are feeling unsure about which option is right for you, feel free to contact us! OnPoint is always happy to help you with your ground transportation needs whether it’s with us or not.
Finding the right ground transportation for your traveler is essential, and sometimes it’s not a clear-cut choice. In this article, we will break down how to decide which option is best for you and your employer.
Determine your own priorities. What do you want as an executive assistant want from a car service? Don’t forget about you! You matter too. Maybe it’s dependability you crave because you want to know the job will get done. Maybe it’s safety because you are concerned about the health and well-being of your traveler. Maybe your first priority is the ease of use because you need to be able to book quickly and efficiently. Whatever it is you need as an executive assistant, remember to take that into account.
