Tipping Etiquette for Chicago Limo & Chauffeur Service

Updated

Read the fare breakdown first

OhareRides quotes include a gratuity line. Check the displayed breakdown before booking and before adding an extra tip. An additional tip is a separate choice; it should not be confused with gratuity already included in the fare.

Compare complete totals

When comparing a chauffeur quote with another transport option, check whether each price includes gratuity, tolls and fuel. A lower headline fare is not necessarily a lower final total. Compare the same addresses, time, vehicle capacity and service options rather than a generic airport example.

Optional extra tips

If you decide to add an extra tip in the booking form, review the updated total before continuing. For a round trip, check both legs and the combined total. If you are unsure which gratuity was already included, ask dispatch to explain the breakdown rather than assuming that a percentage must be added again.

Business trips and receipts

For a business trip, keep the booking details for your expense process and check your employer’s policy about additional gratuities. Questions about a charge or receipt should go to dispatch with the booking reference. The saved-card step during checkout is separate from a later charge for the trip.

Check airport transfer estimates and pricing conditions, read the O’Hare and Midway pickup instructions, or get a quote for your trip. For booking changes, call 312-350-7319.
