Shared Ride Etiquette Tips

Have you ever been on a shared-ride with Miami Luxury Shuttle? The shared-ride concept is simple but some passengers aren’t sure what to expect while on the shuttle with other riders.

No need to worry! We got you covered. Just follow these steps to make your shared-ride a pleasurable experience.

Passenger Boarding Etiquette

When you book a shared-ride, you will be picked up at a designated time that fits accordingly with your flight schedule. Other passengers will be picked up as well. For passenger etiquette, if you are the first one to be picked up, try sitting in the back of your shuttle. This way is more easy and efficient since when more passengers board, they can slide right in and you can avoid getting up and moving out of someone’s way.

Chatting

Talking on the phone while riding with a group can often be considered disruptive and rude to others. Try to avoid phone conversations on the shared-ride shuttle. Instead, try texting since it is less distracting to the other riders and is much quieter. Also if you are making conversation with the guest next to you and they just aren’t into it, end the conversation on a good note and don’t take it personal. Some people enjoy meeting strangers and sparking up a conversation while others like their own space and would rather ride quietly. Whatever kind of person you are, it will be good for the shared-ride.

Personal Space

Be prepared to sit by a stranger on your ride, just like you would on an airplane. The seats on a shuttle are the standard size of any vehicle seats, so not too much room to stretch. Try to keep all of your personal belongings and body parts within your seat limits.

Avoid eating inside the shuttle

The shuttle will be making frequent stops so it is best to avoid eating so you do not make a mess and disturb other passengers. Also, the shared ride shuttle is a space where all smells are transferred and many people are sensitive to certain scents. Try and save that sauerkraut sandwich for later when you are not in a confined space.

Be kind and courteous to others

Remember, that the shared-ride is convenient for all travelers and they are making everyone’s commute more affordable. Be kind to the other passengers, make small talk if necessary and enjoy the company of others. Our shared-ride service is a great place to make conversation, or take a little nap to or from the airport.
