For transfer reservations, customers are allowed to make one stop, along the route, which does not exceed fifteen (15) minutes.

If there is more than one stop, or if the one stop lasts more than thirty (30) minutes, then the trip will convert to an hourly rate.
STC is a surcharge based upon various overhead expense items, some of which may not relate to the specific trip. The STC is always calculated as a flat percentage of the base rate.

Rates quoted prior to service are only an initial estimate of the cost of services reserved. Wait time and/or additional services may change the final price.
Any quoted rate is based on the exchange rate in effect at the time of booking. The final bill will be calculated using the exchange rate in effect at the time of billing.
