Why TMC Executive Car Uses a Block-Rate Structure — And Why It Works Better for You

When booking luxury ground transportation, many clients are accustomed to hourly or mileage-based pricing—and often the frustrations that come with it. At TMC Executive Car, we do things differently. Our block-rate pricing model is designed to deliver peace of mind, simplicity, and a consistently elevated experience—without the stress of running clocks or surprise charges.

Here’s why we use a block-rate system, how it works, and why it’s a better way to travel.
Why We Don’t Charge Hourly

Hourly pricing might appear flexible on the surface, but it often leads to:

  • Unpredictable final costs
  • Stress over time delays (traffic, meetings running long, etc.)
  • A feeling of being rushed to avoid additional charges

Type of Client Example Use:

  • Corporate Travelers: Multiple site visits across cities, investor tours, or executive roadshows
  • Wedding Clients: Photos ➜ ceremony ➜ reception ➜ send-off—all included
  • Event Guests: Concerts, sports, or black-tie galas with a chauffeur on standby
  • Tourists & Locals: Full-day sightseeing with a flexible schedule and unlimited stops

Our block-rate model eliminates these pressures. You’re not watching the clock, and neither is your chauffeur. You simply enjoy the ride—and the day
Weekday vs. Weekend Service: What You Should Know

We understand that demand for luxury transportation increases during weekends—especially for weddings, concerts, events, and leisure travel. To maintain the same high level of service during peak times, our rates vary slightly between Monday–Thursday and Friday–Sunday.

This structure ensures:

  • Availability of top-tier chauffeurs and SUVs
  • Seamless service even during high-demand weekends
  • Your experience remains unhurried, on your schedule, and curated to perfection

Why Clients Love Block Pricing

  • One flat price for the full experience
  • Unlimited stops within your reserved block
  • Time flexibility if your itinerary shifts
  • Zero stress about mileage, waiting fees, or hourly overages
  • Chauffeur service that adjusts to your day—not the other way around

Common Use Cases

What’s Included:

  • Luxury SUV (spacious, discreet, and professionally maintained)
  • Professionally attired chauffeur with executive-level training
  • Pre-trip itinerary planning support
  • Unlimited mileage & stops within your block
  • Complimentary amenities like bottled water, chargers, umbrella escort, and luggage assistance
