  • How is the fare calculated?

    Prime Time: Shared Ride, Private Vehicle, Executive Sedan, Luxury SUV, and/or Private Van calculates your flat rate upfront, based on the estimated distance and number of passengers and luggages.

    The flat fare always includes the base fare, airport fee, toll fee and any other fee(s) that may apply. Once the ride is booked, the calculated flat rate will never change.

    There is no surge pricing or any hidden fees.

    Our platform uses the Google Maps API to calculate the route that will determine the price. The optimal route taken for the ride will be suggested by the driver.

  • How long will my driver wait for me?

    Drivers will try their best to accommodate you. To ensure a smooth service for both riders and drivers, here are the rules you need to follow:

    • Airport Pick-up: Drivers will wait for 30 minutes past your pick-up time. After 30minutes, we cannot guarantee your ride.

    • Home Pick-up: Drivers will wait for 15 minutes past your pick-up time. After 15 minutes, without communication, the driver will leave.

    For more information, read our cancellation and no-show policies.

  • How to proceed if my driver does not show up?

    We take driver no shows very seriously and will do everything possible to try and make the situation right.

    Here is what you can do to make sure your driver is available:

    1. Get in touch with your driver if they did not try to reach out to you.
    2. Contact customer service at 310-464-0372 to report the problem.
    3. Hop on another transportation service of your choice to get to your destination.

    Here is what we will do for you:

    1. We will investigate to understand what happened.
    2. We will refund your transportation up to the amount of a Prime Time ride if your driver was at fault.

    Prime Time Shuttle realizes our drivers are human beings. Sometimes they make mistakes, have emergencies or run into unpredictable situations.
