You Don’t Have Reliable Transportation

If you’ve opted for a rental car in a new city, especially in a large city, chances are you’re adopting a set of frustrations that simply aren’t worth it. From getting lost on your way to meetings to the general frustrations associated with parking and navigating a new city, you’ll likely find that renting a car on a business trip simply isn’t worth it.
Cabs are in the same ballpark. When you’re on a tight schedule and often need effective transportation at the drop of a hat, a cab simply isn’t your best bet. Especially if you need a cab during rush hour, finding one at a moment’s notice might prove a challenge, and there’s never a guarantee that a cab driver will know exactly where you need to go.
Booking chauffeured transportation is the best way to go during your business trip. You’ll have a local expert driver who knows how to get where you need to go. You’ll have punctual transportation when and where you need it, and you’ll have the luxury and solitude of a commute that you can use as you see fit, whether it’s for a power nap or to get extra work done.

You Pick the Wrong Restaurant for a Client Dinner

This is another executive travel misery that can have serious consequences. Making a great impression on a potential or current client is highly important, and the restaurant you choose says a lot about your judgment, professionalism and whether the client will like you.
Research is vital. Don’t expect to just pop into town and choose a random restaurant that has a good rating on Yelp!. Your chauffeur will be a local expert well versed in the legitimately good restaurants in the area. He or she can offer you a list to work with throughout your trip.
Executive travel is full of opportunities for mishaps and miseries. Avoid them as best you can with research, preparation and a backup plan.
