Dual Purpose Limo Hire

When organising a limousine for a special night out such as your prom, your limo hire company will ask you for an itinerary of the night to ensure that they can get you everywhere you need to be, and so that they can give you the best price with all of the information they need.

However, some parents will take advantage of the prom limousine they have hired for their students, or they will organise to split the cost of the limo hire with another group of students. While splitting the cost of your prom limo hire is a great way to save money, you should only split the cost between the amount of people who are riding in the limousine at one time.

For example, if you have one group of friends who are picked up by a limousine and taken to a restaurant for dinner before their prom, you should not be trying to double book that prom limousine by sending it to pick up another group of your friends, at a different address and bringing them to the same restaurant for a pre prom dinner. While shuttling two groups of prom goers in the same limo may seem like a great way to save a few dollars, there are ethical issues in the way you are using the limo hire company, and you are risking running the night for one or both groups of students.

Other times prom parents will ask that their child’s prom limousine come back and pick them up while their child is at their prom, so the parents can go out for the night too, but in the same limousine. However, double booking your limousine and providing your limo hire company with a shuttle-like itinerary at short notice (after you have paid) is unfair to the limo hire company who has quoted a price for a standard prom night and now has to absorb the extra fuel and mileage costs.

You also run the risk of one group being late, or getting stuck in traffic with the extra travelling and this can ruin the night for everyone as you are likely to miss out on part of your prom night. Instead, make sure you hire from a limousine hire company which has access to limousines from all over the UK and can find you the best deal on your prom hire. And if your parents want to hire a limo on your prom night for themselves, they can even negotiate a discount for bulk limo hire.
