Waiting time is calculated at $1.00 per minute.

Additional Stops

The fare quoted for point-to-point transfers does not include any additional stops made during your trip. Unless specifically discussed, when booking a reservation by phone, the fare quoted by an operator does not include additional stops. You may obtain an exact quote for additional stops, in advance, by speaking with a phone reservation agent.
