ALVE Limousine – Comprehensive Terms & Conditions

1. Booking & Reservation Policy

All reservations must be made at least 2 hours prior to scheduled pickup. Same-day bookings within 2 hours are subject to availability. A valid credit card is required to confirm all bookings. Special events or high-demand periods may require additional advance notice and full prepayment.

2. Cancellation & Refund Policy

Standard Rides (1–6 passengers): Free cancellation up to 8 hours before pickup. Cancellations within 8 to 2 hours incur a partial fee; cancellations within 2 hours of the scheduled time incur a 100% charge.

Flight Cancellations: Free if ALVE Limousine is notified immediately upon flight cancellation. If the chauffeur is already "On the Way" without notification, 100% of the fare will be charged.

Billing Disputes: Must be submitted in writing within 48 hours of the invoice date. After 48 hours, all charges are considered final.

3. Hourly Service & Garage-to-Garage Policy

Minimum: All hourly services are subject to a 2-hour minimum charge.

Garage Policy: Billing follows a "Garage-to-Garage" protocol, starting from the vehicle’s departure from our facility and ending upon its return.

4. Wait Time & No-Show Policy

Airport Pickups: Includes 60 minutes of complimentary wait time after the official flight arrival time.

Standard Pickups: Includes a 15-minute grace period.

No-Show: If the client is not present after the grace period and is unreachable, the full fare will be charged and the reservation will be marked as a no-show.

5. Mileage-Time Balance (The "Greater" Principle)

Each service hour includes 20 miles. If the calculation (Total Miles / 20) exceeds the actual service duration, the mileage-equivalent hours (rounded up) will be billed. We apply whichever is higher to maintain vehicle maintenance standards and service quality.

6. Pricing & Administrative Fees

A mandatory 15% Administrative Fee is applied to all base rates. Base rates are $110/hr for SUV and $85/hr for Sedan (or tiered mileage equivalent). Gratuity is not included in the base quote.

7. Hero Discounts & Verification

We offer a 20% discount for Military personnel and Healthcare workers (applied to the Grand Total). Corporate clients receive a 15% Admin Fee waiver. A valid ID must be presented to the chauffeur; otherwise, 100% of the fare will be collected. Discounts cannot be combined.

8. Cleaning & Damage Fees

Smoking (including vaping): Strictly prohibited in all vehicles. A $250 cleaning fee will be applied for violations.

Service Downtime: If a vehicle is taken out of service due to passenger actions, a $500/day downtime fee will be charged.

Illegal substances are strictly prohibited. Alcohol consumption requires prior written approval from management. Disruptive intoxication or spills will result in immediate termination of the trip without refund, plus applicable cleaning fees.

10. Child Safety Seats

Available upon request for $20 per seat. While ALVE Limousine provides the equipment, the passenger assumes 100% responsibility for secure installation and final safety checks.

11. Lost Items

ALVE Limousine is not responsible for items left in vehicles. If an item is found, retrieval is the client's responsibility. Delivery can be arranged for a fee based on travel distance.

12. Passenger Behavior & Safety

Aggressive, unsafe, or disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated. Chauffeurs may terminate the ride without refund if safety is endangered. Vehicles may be equipped with audio/video recording for safety; entry into the vehicle constitutes consent.

13. Capacity & Luggage
