Our Duty of Care Commitment

Written by Manpreet Sidhu on August 17, 2021. Posted in Limo Service

Transporting human passengers day in and day out is not something we take lightly here at A&A Limousine & Bus Service. We have what is known as a “Duty of Care” to be ultra-safe in every action we take. Our industry takes the commitment of driving human beings so seriously that our trade shows and conventions are full of safety-oriented training sessions, driver training techniques and even a little bit of fun is thrown in with a Driver Skill Competition.

At A&A Limousine & Bus Service, we have dedicated ourselves to the duty of care of our passengers. We have an outstanding record of safety inspections by the Washington State Patrol and a reputation for providing excellent customer service.

As part the U.S. Infrastructure Bill that is under consideration in the Senate, there is a proposed amendment to improve federal safety standards for limousines. The amendment establishes a mandatory annual inspection for limo companies and will also provide funds to State law enforcement agencies that will remove unsafe limos from the road through enforcement and inspection efforts.

Easy ways to reduce stress on a business trip

Written by Manpreet Sidhu on August 14, 2021. Posted in Limo Service

Traveling for a corporate event is stressful. From finding reliable transportation on time to managing the luggage, meeting deadlines, and navigating in unfamiliar cities, the anxiety runs down, and the opportunities for stress to flourish are multiplied when an executive is traveling. For business travelers, their time is crucial, and thus don’t get time to relieve stress. That’s why it is important to build a stress-relief routine for the moment when you feel like you are about to crack. Here are few ideas for relieving the stress:

Get better sleep: This might seem easier, but there are only a few ways to improve your sleep during corporate travel. To create a better sleeping environment in your hotel room, research the quieter areas of the city and booking a hotel room there; if the option is open. Unfortunately, if you get undesirable rooms where the hotel will present you with significant additional noise while you are trying to sleep. Eye masks, earplugs, and similar tools will help you simulate darkness and silence if you’re trying to sleep during odd hours.
Meditate: Sometimes, the number of projects, meetings, and seminars leave you overwhelmed. The pressure of the daily tasks and be involved can quickly lead to burnout which is the enemy of all productivity and happiness. Spend some time in quieter mornings with ambient sounds. Meditations will help you find a calm place, effectively reducing stress and helping you re-focus your energies.
EXERCISE: When traveling for business, our workout routines come to a stop. Whether because of time or we are too unfamiliar with our surroundings. Missing exercise has detrimental effects on our stress levels. We would suggest you to book a hotel with a fitness center. Exercise is a great way to spike your energy and relieve stress. Take a walk around the city or the hotel if there is no fitness center.

TURN OFF THE COMPUTER: Our professional life revolves around the computer, and many of us keep them running 24/7. Even when we are drained of any creative energy, we keep our tabs open. It is vital to get enough rest when you are on a business trip to balance long days and the time change.
TRANSPORTATION: You have to struggle for finding a taxi and then navigating around using the maps and GPS. This exhausts you at the end of the day.

Uber Lyft vs AA Limousine & Bus Service

Written by Manpreet Sidhu on June 24, 2021. Posted in Blog, Limo Service

Have you tried to order an Uber recently? You likely found the wait time for a ride to be more than an hour and the fares have climbed to ridiculous levels that often exceed those of a professional transportation provider such as AA Limousine & Bus Service.

Aside from the pricing and on-demand service, there are many things that set us apart from a Transportation Network Company (TNC) such as Uber and Lyft. The most important is the fact that independent drivers are driving their own personal vehicles and cannot possibly match the same level of customer service, chauffeur training, overall safety and the high standards of excellence we provide.

Here are a few Pros & Cons about using a TNC Rideshare:

Pros:

– A convenient option from anyplace/anytime
– Affordable rates
– Easy to arrange on demand

Cons:

– TNC Drivers must buy special insurance as their personal auto insurance will not cover accidents while functioning as a TNC. Can you be sure that your Uber driver has done so?
– No drug or alcohol testing is required of Uber/Lyft drivers as mandated in our industry
– No 24/7 live dispatcher watching the vehicle on GPS
– No live person to speak to about a problem
– No criminal background checks completed with fingerprints
– Excessive claims of kidnapping, rape and assault of passengers by TNC drivers
– No formal safety training program for drivers
– Excessive/Unpredictable wait times
– A known history of No Shows and TNC initiated cancellations
– Not regulated in every state

When you hire a professional transportation provider such as AA Limousine & Bus Service, you never have to worry about any of the Cons shown above.

We are required to maintain standards that are much higher than those of an Uber driver. TNC drivers are Independent Contractors who are basically self-employed, work when they want and how they want with little to no oversight of their performance. In other words, you are literally on your own on for every ride.

When you choose a professional car service, you are guaranteed to ride in a vehicle that is properly insured. If a professional transportation provider’s insurance policy is canceled for any reason, the insurance carrier notifies the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) the same day. The “Authority to Operate” permit is immediately suspended. Airports such as Seattle and others have PUC enforcement officials onsite everyday who use automated license plate readers, commonly known as “alpers” (ALPR) to determine if a vehicle is registered to a transportation provider. It quickly verifies if the operating permit status is valid. The fines for operating illegally stop most companies from engaging in service while suspended.

AA Limousine & Bus Service provides a high level of professionalism that you can count on. We have a long list of satisfied customers that can attest to the fact that we will provide you with the safest, comfortable and efficient chauffeur services on the planet in any city in the world.
