Blacklane GmbH
Welcome to Florence and Manchester. Blacklane is set for its European expansion! The premium chauffeur service expands its operation areas in Italy and the United Kingdom. (News mit Zusatzmaterial)
Following the latest success with worldwide launches in São Paolo, Cape Town and Dubai, Blacklane is now continuing its expansion in Europe, to Florence and Manchester. The international company offers a new alternative in daily transportation needs, providing customers with airport transfers, transportation to and from meetings, and as-directed chauffeur services. ‘Our aim is to accompany our customers globally, wherever they want to go.’ states Dr. Jens Wohltorf, co-founder of Blacklane, adding, ‘We are on the way to becoming the number one international companion for their entire journey. Therefore it is also important to offer our chauffeur service in Europe’s most important cities and tourist hotspots.’ Florence is the capital of the Tuscany and as one of Italy’s tourist hotspots it attracts thousands of travelers every year. ‘Blacklane launches in Florence to offer those travelers a reliable and comfortable alternative to the taxi’ Frank Steuer, CEO of Blacklane, says. ‘It can be quite nerve-racking to order a taxi in Florence. Our black limousines can be prebooked with a fixed rate, pick you up from your chosen location anywhere in Florence and give you smooth ride to your desired destination.’ Manchester is Blacklanes second city in the UK, ‘But it will definitely not be the last one.’ Steuer says. He continues: ‘We expect our chauffeur service in Manchester to be as successful as it already is in London. Manchester Airport is also the third busiest airport in the UK outside of London, acting as a gateway for both tourists and business travelers not just to the city, but to the North of England.’. Having received overwhelmingly positive feedback wherever it launches, Blacklane is firmly establishing itself as one of the leading international players in the limousine service industry. ‘Local providers welcome us wherever we show up, knowing that we’ll add to their revenue instead of diminishing it.’ Bookings can be made around the clock, online, or with the company’s smartphone app. After specifying their pick-up location and booking period or desired destination, customers can choose from one of three classes of vehicle (Business Class, Business Van /SUV, First Class) at a binding fixed price including all taxes and fees. Cars can be booked up to fifteen minutes before the customer’s required pick-up time. After booking, customers receive a confirmation of their order as well as their chauffeur’s contact details. Payments can be made by credit card, and companies can be billed on a monthly basis. All customer invoices can easily be downloaded from their MyBlacklane account. Blacklane limousines can now be booked in 32 countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China (incl. Hong Kong and Macau), Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Israel, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, the U.K. and the U.S. About Blacklane Blacklane GmbH, a Berlin-based company, provides individual and corporate customers with a mobile booking service for high quality chauffeur and limousine services, with transparent and attractive rates. Acting as a head office for limousine services, Blacklane does not possess its own vehicles but rather partners with existing providers to allow customers to enjoy comfortable journeys at inexpensive, fixed prices. The company currently employs more than 60 staff members. Find further information at www.blacklane.com.
