Feedback from
YPL's
1st Quarter Survey
 
I wanted to take this opportunity to respond to a concern that was mentioned in our 1st Quarter Survey.  YPL customers are requesting travel receipts in a more timely fashion. 
We couldn't agree more and have since programmed our system to automatically email a receipt to the email address on the reservation at the time the charge is processed. 
The staff and I sincerely appreciate the feedback and it is this communication that allows YPL to continue to 'Exceed Your Expectations!' 
Please tell us how we are doing - the following survey only takes about 5 minutes to complete:

Construction
Season too!
 
In the Chicagoland area there are two seasons--winter and construction. One has finally ended and the other is literally beginning!
The Eisenshower Expressway (I290)
will be undergoing 27 miles of work, bringing both east and westbound traffic down to one lane.
This is not a pretty picture. IDOT is rehabbing the Congress Parkway Bridge. In addition, work is scheduled downtown for both upper and lower Wacker Drive.  As always, 
YPL will do its very best to find alternate routes of transportation, providing you with the smoothest ride possible!
Go to Illinois Department
of Transportation (IDOT) for updates.

It's Here - Prom Season! 
The next six weekends will be action-packed as we transport prom-goers to and from their Proms while creating lasting and fun memories for each one of them.  YPL holds safety first and foremost amongst our teenagers during this exciting milestone. 
 
YPL has a No-Nonsense approach to drinking and minors.  Following are YPL's policies when performing Proms: 
  • All duffle bags, personal bags & backpacks in the trunk
  • Absolutely NO alcohol - NO EXCEPTIONS!
  • If there is one minor, then the entire group is considered minors
  • Reservation needs to be made by an adult with a contact number that evening
  • The itinerary cannot be changed unless approved by the responsible adult 
Please do not choose your Limo Company by price alone.  If the service is very inexpensive, there is a reason for it.  Confirm that the company you choose has adequate insurance, is properly licensed and performs background checks on each chauffeur.
Everyone involved - parents, their kids, the limousine company and the chauffeur - needs to be on the same page when it comes to prom safety.
 
YPL offers Sedans, Suvs and Limousines for Proms and rates start as low as $55.00 an hour, two hour minimum!  For more information, please call 847.259.5010, #4 or email info@YourPrivateLimo.com.  
Testimonial - Our Favorite Part!
You are amazing!  I am sure that I/we drove you crazy with all of the changes and requests, but you were unbelievable kind about it.  Needless to say I plan for things to be more streamlined on our end next go around!
 
You and your entire company just went above and beyond for us and we couldn't be happier with the service you provided.  Everyone said the drivers were great, you were absolutely on-time, and it all was handled smoothly and courteously.  The ribbons were a great idea and I had several comments about that.  The shuttles kept no one waiting and the motor coach service worked very well for us.  And, given that we changed our departing time and that I literally gave you 15 minutes notice to get the motor coach out front and get the limos dispatched, the fact that no one waited more than 5 minutes was incredible.  I seriously could not have asked for more (because I did ask for more, more, more - and you delivered).  
 
I'm so glad we had a chance to work together.  I will be having several recap meetings to talk about our event and will absolutely bring up your company and how impressed we all were.  Our front desk has your business cards and I will be passing on the word to all of the administrative assistants. 
 
Many, many thanks and I look forward to working with you again.

Execs Begin to Fill the Skies Again
 Companies understand the importance of meeting face to face to form and enhance the relationships of their clients.  And, if they are not conducting face to face meeetings, then their competitors are!
 "A 1% increase in travel spending leads on average to a 1.7% hike in sales. That's based on a study of 9,500 companies over 10 years by the National Business Travel Association, an industry group, and AmEx", states Paul Katzeff, Investor's Business Daily.  Read More...
