Following the latest success in the United States with the previous
launches in Seattle, San Diego, and Denver, Blacklane now sets its rapid
growth forth in another five cities: Minneapolis, St. Louis, Phoenix, Tampa
and Kansas City. 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 in the States 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.– Given that the United States is a major destination for travelers
from all over the world, expanding the limousine and chauffeur service
further in the States– biggest and most important cities was just a matter
of time. –Growing further in the States and fulfilling the needs of
travelers, has been a dream of Blacklane and now it–s finally coming true.–
Wohltorf continues.

Minneapolis is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Minnesota.
–Minneapolis has a lot of interesting and well attended theaters,– says
Frank Steuer, also co-founder, adding, –Blacklane is not just an airport
transfer service. We also offer a comfortable and luxurious way for people
to get to and from evening events.–

Saint Louis is an interesting city along the Mississippi River. Thanks to
its number of important universities, many young people live in St. Louis.
–Blacklane offers a smart alternative to the taxi,– Steuer says, adding,
–And Blacklane–s limousines can be booked at fair, competitive prices.–

Phoenix is the capital and largest city in Arizona and the sixth largest
city in the United States. –Phoenix is currently of interest to the real
estate industry and is starting to attract quite a few business travelers,–
Jens Wohltorf says, adding –We offer a perfect alternative to taking a taxi
when arriving at Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. Our customers can rest in the
limousine and get to their business meetings in a relaxed and comfortable
way.–

Tampa is the third largest city in Florida and the region–s main economic
hub. Its economy is based on tourism, agriculture, construction, finance,
health care, technology, and maritime activities. –Tampa is an interesting
city,– says Steuer, continuing, –We–re happy to finally offer our services
in another of Florida–s cities, along with Miami and Orlando.

Kansas City is the largest city in Missouri. It–s part of an important
metropolitan area spanning the border between the U.S. states of Kansas and
Missouri. –It–s home to a number of international law firms, agricultural
companies, and multinational corporations and is a major destination for
the performing arts,– says Steuer, continuing, –With Blacklane, it–s
possible to arrive at Kansas City International Airport and have a
convenient ride to a hotel or business meeting.–

The limousine service is now available in 23 cities in the United States:
Chicago, New York City, Washington D.C., San Francisco, Boston, Miami, Los
Angeles, Baltimore, Las Vegas, Orlando, Houston, Dallas, Philadelphia,
Detroit, Atlanta, Seattle, San Diego, Denver, Minneapolis, St. Louis,
Phoenix, Tampa, Kansas City. –And there is no end in sight!– Frank Steuer
states.

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
vehicles (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 or debit
card and, for companies, can be billed on a monthly basis. All customer
invoices can easily be downloaded from their MyBlacklane account.
