What is Meet and Greet Service and What to Expect Upon Arrival?
Our Meet and Greet Service begins with your driver confirming your arrival details via text message. As you exit the secure area and enter the baggage claim area, your driver will be waiting with a sign displaying the primary passenger's last name.
The driver will then guide you to the designated baggage carousel for your airline and assist you in retrieving your luggage. After all your bags have been collected, the driver will help transport them to the vehicle. Once your luggage is loaded, your journey to your destination will begin.

Baggage Damage
If you notice damage to your baggage and believe it resulted from careless handling by our staff, please contact us within 24 hours of your transportation service at elitetransportationpc.com.
Please note that some signs of wear and tear are normal due to regular handling during travel. Even high-quality luggage can show signs of wear after multiple trips, as its durability is affected over time. Poorly constructed luggage may have a short lifespan when subjected to the handling and stacking processes involved in air and ground transportation. Baggage is typically stacked in the cargo area of the vehicle, and we recommend that fragile items not be placed in the baggage area.
We will not be liable for:
- Ordinary wear and tear
- Inherent defects in the baggage
- Poor quality or construction of the baggage
- Over-packing or exceeding baggage capacity
Vehicle Capacity
For our SUV service, the maximum recommended capacity is 4 passengers with luggage.
Please note that passenger capacity is dependent on the amount of luggage each person brings. Excessive luggage can quickly reduce the seating capacity of the vehicle, so we encourage you to plan accordingly.
Baggage Allowance
On average, each passenger is allowed one large bag and one medium-sized bag. If you have an excessive amount of luggage, skis, snowboards, strollers, or similar items that reduce the number of available seats needed to lawfully secure all passengers, a second vehicle may be required. Additional vehicles will be subject to availability and must be reserved in advance.
