Terms and Conditions
I. STANDARD POLICY
Except as otherwise specifically agreed in writing, the following policies shall apply. All charges incurred will be charged to the client’s credit card, unless prior arrangement for invoicing has been approved or an existing corporate account is in place. Luttom Transportation accepts all major credit cards. Acceptance of checks or cash is conditional upon a credit card guarantee and verification of identity for security reasons. Checks must be received sufficiently in advance to clear before the date of service. First-time and one-time clients must provide their credit card for imprinting. Additional identity checks may be required.
By placing an online reservation, you consent to abide by the terms and conditions set forth herein. This also confirms that you are the credit card holder or are authorized by the cardholder for this transaction, allowing us to charge the card for the full amount of the services requested, inclusive of taxes, surcharges, gratuity, and other associated fees. You acknowledge your awareness of all charges, having received or waived a detailed price quote, and accept the rates published online, including any minimum hourly charges. A confirmation email will be sent upon processing your reservation. Please review and confirm the accuracy of all details and charges. If modifications are necessary, contact us at contact@luttom.com or call 855-787-3149.
Your reservation is not final until you receive a confirmation email.
BILLING
Full payment is required before or on the service date and is non-refundable if any terms of this contract are breached.

Any modifications will be confirmed via a new email.
Submitting an online reservation signifies acceptance of these terms and service confirmation.

Luttom Transportation endeavors to accommodate travel plan changes. Changes within three hours of your reservation may incur a $50 short-notice fee. In some cases, we might be unable to fulfill your request due to availability, leaving the option to retain the original reservation or cancel it.
Certain services, including proms, holidays, events, and large conventions, may be non-refundable once booked. Refer to your trip confirmation for specific cancellation policies. Submitting a reservation for these events constitutes agreement to a non-refundable policy unless stated otherwise in your confirmation.
Reservations made post-cancellation deadline are bound by the same policy and are non-refundable once booked.
Past the cancellation/modification deadline, the full charge becomes non-refundable.
Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable. A 50% deposit is required for all services except Airport services and Sedans/SUVs.

You may opt to add the gratuity to your credit card for receipt inclusion or provide it directly to the chauffeur in cash. Tipping is at your discretion, reflecting your satisfaction with the chauffeur’s service. Please inform us if you prefer an alternate tipping method or wish to adjust the gratuity amount. Our chauffeurs understand that tips are earned through exceptional service.
