Cancellations: All reservations, “jobs” (charters and transfers) must be cancelled at least 7 days prior to service date to avoid the full charge. NO REFUNDS are given for any cancellations within the seven day window prior to any event. A cancellation may be rebooked for a future trip (identical in nature, based on availability) if the reservation/ “job” cancellation occurs within the seven day window of a reservation/”job”. An administrative fees of $50 (fifty dollars) will be charged to your credit card for these cancellation changes in addition to any and all fees and outstanding balances for the original vehicle/event booking.

Cancellations by Allure Transportation: Allure Transportation may cancel a “job” for any reason (mechanical difficulties or otherwise) and the total cost of the “job” will be credited for a future reservation of equal value to the existing “job” as contracted. Allure Transportation reserves the right to subcontract any “job” as contracted, in part or in full, to an alternate carrier. This includes the substitution of the contracted vehicle to one of equal value or greater in order to complete the “job”.

Billing: Your time starts at the arranged pick-up time at the first location and ends at the last drop-off location in which the last person leaves the vehicle. Overtime charges begin at the “end-time” scheduled by the client. Overtime charges stop when the last person leaves the vehicle.

Overtime Billing: Extra hours/Overtime hours are billed on an hourly rate basis. Extra hours/Overtime hours may or may not be available and are not guaranteed. The client agrees to allow overtime charges for overtime services on the same credit card used by the client for deposit and payment – during our normal business hours of 9 am – 7 pm (CST). After normal business hours, your credit card will be swiped or credit card information obtained in the vehicle before these extra hours begin. Failure to successfully “run” your credit card will result in immediate termination of the “job” and no Extra/Overtime hours will be provided to the client.

Overtime Grace Period: You will be given a ten minute grace period prior to being billed for Extra/Overtime hours. For example, 5 hours and 11 minutes will be billed as 6 hours. Please plan your event so that the final drop-off point falls within your reserved time.

Overtime Availability: A daytime “job” may not be able to be extended if the vehicle in use has been reserved and scheduled for an evening “job”, thus preventing use of the vehicle beyond the scheduled “end time”. Please try to determine this ahead of time and make your plans accordingly. Overtime on an evening “job” is usually not a problem, although we cannot guarantee any overtime.Cash “Jobs”: Allure Shuttle will not accept any cash payments on the day of your event. Our drivers are allowed to accept cash tips. (No driver solicitation for any tip is permitted by Allure Transportation). Allure Transportation will accept cash payment or bank certified checks up to 48 hours prior to any engagement. These monies may be brought to our offices with prior arrangement. A credit card must always be on file with our office and will remain a source for collection for any unpaid balances, damages, and/or cleaning (see “Damages” and “Vehicle cleaning”).Damage: The client is responsible for all damages and guest damages. Damages will be charges at 125% of the repair costs. Please remember that vehicle damage leads to downtime of our vehicle as well staff and fuel costs to get the vehicle to repair. Repairs are at the sole discretion of Allure Transportation. Repairs will be done in such a fashion as to restore the vehicle to the same intact and working condition as was prior to the damage. All repairs and or replacement (factory specific) will also include labor and installation charges (including any factory installation fees). Seat punctures, audio speaker damage, drink holders, arm rests, television monitors, lighting control panels, and audio control panels are very expensive items to repair. Please respect our vehicles.

Cleaning Charge: Extra charges may be imposed for “excessive mess” by passengers – including but not limited to excessive trash, beer cans, and bottles.

We will collect all plastic cups and soda bottles provided by Allure Transportation.

Allure Transportation is not responsible for injuries to guests who are not seated and not wearing seat belts during transit.

Your driver will confirm the maximum number of passengers permitted in the vehicle. Any additional passengers above seat belt availability will NOT be permitted. Please do not exceed the maximum number of passengers allowed in a specific vehicle. It is both dangerous and NOT allowed by state and federal regulators.

Unfavorable Conditions: Do not ask the driver to drive the vehicle on muddy roads, torn up roads, or go up or down steep driveways. It is the driver’s discretion to refuse operation of our vehicle in any road hazard or condition of the nature described. This will avoid danger to our passengers as well as damage to our vehicles. It will also avoid any police citations to our driver, our company, or our clients.

Driver’s Responsibility/Chauffeur’s Responsibility: The driver/chauffeur must act in a responsible fashion to care for your safety and the safety of your guests. As well, our chauffeur’s are responsible to safeguard their vehicles. Vehicles will never be left unattended during your time of hire. Your chauffeur is NOT allowed to party with you.

Judgement of Driver/Chauffeur: It is the sole judgement of the driver/chauffeur to determine that the behavior of the client or any guest(s) is out of control, obnoxious, disrespectful, unsafe, illegal, dangerous, or irresponsible.

A driver can and will terminate a “job” on the spot and order all occupants out of the vehicle if he or she feels necessary. A driver can and will call the authorities if he or she feels necessary. A driver may or may not issue a warning before he or she takes action. If this happens, you will NOT receive a refund for any monies whatsoever.

Your driver will NOT speed to your event or the next stop. Our drivers will only go as fast as the speed limit allows.

Allure Transportation will not be held liable for any “pick-up” delays if there is a miscommunication with our driver and/or the client’s arrival at a pick-up location is delayed. Please be aware that our drivers may have to move our vehicle from the arranged pick-up location if the client’s arrival to that location is delayed. Our drivers must act in compliance with local parking ordinances and other posted ordinances. Our drivers must act in compliance with local authorities.

Breakdowns: Allure Transportation will not be held liable for any delays due to mechanical conditions. As well, Allure Transportation will not be held liable if such mechanical conditions should cause the vehicle to cease to function resulting in a “vehicle breakdown”. Any condition of such mechanical nature, whether under the hood, tire related, or otherwise will require our driver to stop the vehicle from being used. Vehicle breakdowns as such are to be determined by the driver, and/or the Company, and/or a professional mechanic certified to repair such vehicle. Some vehicle situations as such are regulated by state and federal authorities and require the vehicle to be “shut down from operation” for passenger safety. Allure Transportation will not be held responsible in any way for lodging, food costs, or other expenses due to any mechanical breakdowns. Allure Transportation will make every effort to obtain another vehicle in order to complete the event booking in a timely fashion. If such replacement vehicle is not able to be obtained, the total cost of the “job” will be credited for a future reservation (identical in nature, based on availability) of equal value to the existing “job” as contracted.
