Yes. Before the first time that you book for each passenger with the account you must send the passenger’s name as you have entered it, your contact information, and the account number cc@egclimo.com. After you receive a response from Elite Global Chauffeurs™, anytime that you book, specify the account number on the page that you select the city that is nearest to the passenger’s travel. Be prepared to provide any additional information, e.g., employee number, that is required by the account administrator.

5. How can I find out in which International destinations Elite Global Chauffeurs™ offers service? How can I book a car for these cities?
A list of our worldwide locations is provided on this Web site under Global Directories. You can book Elite Global Chauffeurs™ transportation for any city or country using any of the above booking methods. If you are booking an International trip via the Internet, we request up to 24 hours advance notice. If you use Elite Global Chauffeurs™’s e-Reservation service and the city in which you are traveling is not listed, please call Elite Global Chauffeurs™ at 1-800-363-1013 to book your reservation.

6. Can I book a reservation without knowing my final destination?
Yes. You will have to let us know the approximate time when you need to be dropped off, however. If you do know some of the places where you will be going, describe them in the itinerary of the reservation and indicate that there will be multiple stops on your journey.

7. Why can I only get a “per hour” price estimate?
Based on the information entered in your reservation, the reservations system cannot determine a specific price estimate. Whenever this occurs, an hourly rate will be provided. Regardless of the estimate that you receive, the actual price that you are charged will be based on the service performed.

8. My preferred airport is not available in the planning section.
If your airport is not shown, then complete the location information by entering the airport name in the Location Name field. The reservations system lists the major airports served by the primary city of service that you selected. Elite Global Chauffeurs™ also serves most smaller airports that are not listed on our website.

9. What types of vehicles can I reserve?
Elite Global Chauffeurs™ offers a wide variety of vehicles designed to accommodate single passengers, small groups of passengers, and larger passenger groups. View these various vehicle types on this Web site on the Elite Global Chauffeurs™ Fleet and Amenities page. However, not all vehicle types can be reserved on the Internet. Typically, this refers to larger vehicles. Please call 1-800-363-1013 if the vehicle type that you need is not available by our e-Reservations system.
