Common use of Ground Transportation Clause in Contracts

Ground Transportation. 1. The Company shall arrange for all transportation between the airport and the hotel, between a Training Center and a training hotel, or between hotels when it is necessary to transfer a Crew Member from one hotel to another. When the Company contracts for such transportation, the following criteria will be met: a. Well maintained, late model vehicles. b. A minimum of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) of liability insurance, or the relevant legally mandated minimum liability insurance for commercial transportation providers, whichever is greater. c. Seatbelts for all occupants. d. Transportation companies that employ only appropriately licensed drivers. e. Vehicles of adequate size for the number of occupants, their luggage, and flight bags. 2. In the event the Company fails to arrange for transportation from the airport to the hotel, or the transportation does not arrive within thirty (30) minutes of the Crew Member’s actual block-in time, the Crew Member may obtain alternate transportation to the hotel by any reasonable means available, after informing the Company of his intention to do so. Likewise, in the event the Company fails to arrange for transportation from the hotel to the airport, or the transportation does not arrive within thirty (30) minutes of its scheduled arrival time at the hotel, the Crew Member shall inform the Company of the transportation issue, and may obtain alternate transportation to the airport by any reasonable means available. The Crew Member may utilize the Company credit card for such alternate transportation, or, at his election, he may pay the cost of such transportation out of pocket, in which case the actual cost of such transportation would be subject to reimbursement pursuant to Article 5.B.1., above. 3. The Company shall maintain a list of all companies with which the Company has contracts for lodging or transportation. This list shall be available to Crew Members by a mutually agreeable method. This list shall include the names of the companies, their telephone numbers, if gratuity is included, and the scheduled pick up time prior to departure. This list will be updated as required; however, the Company shall notify the Union Travel and Hotel Committee when any change occurs.
