In an online world...

We live in an increasingly mobile society, where computers, smart phones, and tablets pretty much rule our lives. There is no question these devices and the advancements in technology that have come from them have made our lives easier in many ways, but what have we lost along the way? The personal touch. There are just times where a computer can't replace the peace of mind you get from working one on one with a real live person and a professional in their field.

One area where this is especially true is in booking travel. There are advantages you get from using a travel agent that you just don't receive when booking blindly online, such as:
  • Personalized service from beginning to end.
  • Travel professionals get to know their vendors and choose to work with only the most reliable and most reputable.
  • Professionals with several years experience know the "ins and outs." They know how to find you the best deals.
  • When dealing with an "online agency" you are not truly getting adequate customer service. You are getting a computer, and computers are only as good as the person on the other end entering the information. Having never met said person then how do you really know what you are dealing with?
There are just a few of the many benefits to having a live professional working for you. The same can be said for this industry, premium chauffeured transportation. Yes, do offer online booking that is available to you 24/7, but we also keep our office staffed 24/7. There is always a live person here to assist you. You are not just a number, or a name on our computer screen. Here at Boston Chauffeur we take the time to really get to know our valued clients. We understand you needs. You are important to us, and we work very hard each and every day to prove that.

Safety first!

Working in an industry that depends on automobiles, we at Boston Chauffeur are committed to safety first. Our fleet is the lifeblood of our company, and our clients are important to us. In my years with Boston Chauffeur I've been drawn to news about the automotive industry as it relates to so much of what we do. The National Transportation Safety Board recently released its list of the top-ten most wanted safety improvements for cars. It is great information.

For the travel techie...


Do you embrace the latest technology? Do you love to travel? Are you all about the apps? There is no doubt technology has enriched our lives, but with the "latest and greatest" being introduced constantly, it can also complicate things. I like apps that simplify things. There is a lot to remember when traveling. I read about this new app that looks to streamline all the info you need when you travel.

The pluses of business travel...

At Boston Chauffeur, serving our business travel clients is a specialty. We are experts in corporate road shows, and we understand the needs of business travelers to move in and out of airports quickly and efficiently, understanding that frequent changes are part of the territory.

As the lead agent that handles the booking schedules of many of our top business clients, I often wonder what their life must be like to constantly be on the go, often times traveling great distances for very short amounts of time.

Others were obviously wondering, too! USA Today has a great article on the results of an extensive business travel survey. The results are surprising, and a fascinating read!

The latest U.S. passport changes...

The majority of Boston Chauffeur's valued clients are travelers heading to the airport for business or pleasure. From time to time we come across articles that we think will be helpful to our clients in their travels.

Train travel starting to dominate the Northeast Corridor

If you have traveled in and out of Logan Airport you know what the traffic, long lines, and irritable travelers can be like. Our chauffeurs know Logan Airport better than most anybody so they understand when they have a harried traveler on board. We try to make it as easy and as efficient as possible for you to locate your chauffeur and be on your way.

Did you know, though, that if you were to travel Amtrak out of any of the major Boston area stations all of these hassles would virtually disappear? It is true. You won't have to arrive hours ahead of your departure just to wait in long lines to deal with surly security personnel. And the best part is, when you arrive back at the station you can leisurely walk outside and your trusted Boston Chauffeur driver will be waiting there for you, curbside!

Amtrak service, particularly among the lucrative Boston - New York - Washington DC route has grown exponentially in the past decade. Here is a great article about it: Frustrations of Air Travel Push Passengers to Amtrak.

Following Hurricane Sandy...



The image above is from the last 12 hours. As you can see, the path of Hurricane Sandy looks to be heading directly for New England, and is expected to severely impact travel by road, rail, and air on Monday and Tuesday. If you are scheduled to travel these days we urge you to closely monitor the path of the storm, and, if traveling by air, be sure to continue to check with your airline for delays and cancellations. Above all, it is most important to STAY SAFE!!!

Travel in comfort...

It is a fact that when you book with Boston Chauffeur, you will travel in style AND comfort. But what about once you get to the airport? It is pretty common opinion these days that airline travel has become anything but comfortable. Who better to offer advice on traveling comfortably than someone who travels thousands of miles a month, mostly on their feet...flight attendants!

Coming soon...Chauffeur Spotlights!

In my humble opinion, Boston Chauffeur has pretty much the best chauffeurs working in the industry today. Seriously, you won't find a more professional, knowledgeable, courteous group of chauffeurs than the team from Boston Chauffeur. I feel they desire some recognition. So, over the next few months I will periodically spotlight one of them here on the blog. You can put a face with the name and learn a little about each of them, such as how long they have been a professional chauffeur, what is their favorite part of the job, etc. Be sure to keep checking back...the first spotlight can pop up here at any time!
