Limo Service & COVID: What You Should Know in 2022 and Beyond
A lot has changed in the last few years regarding private transportation. With the spread of COVID-19 and the resulting shutdowns, many people had to adjust their travel plans and use of public airport transportation. With most parts of the world operating at pre-COVID standards now, we wanted to provide you with an update about what you can expect when using our limo service.
To begin, let’s look at the overall post-COVID limo industry outlook.
Post-COVID Limo Industry Outlook
With the world slowly transitioning back to pre-pandemic operations, there has been a continued increase in the use of private transportation such as limousines and chauffeured car services. This is due to a rise in demand for transportation options that people can rely on while still adhering to COVID safety measures.
This is an exciting improvement for the industry, as it was especially hard hit during the pandemic when we saw a decline of $83.0 billion in 2019 to $46.7 billion in 2020. The pandemic essentially cut the industry in half, causing lots of fleet owners to literally sell half of their fleets.
Now, more people are using private transportation, and the future is looking a lot brighter! Even still, we keep many safety practices in place to ensure the health and welfare of our passengers and drivers.
Commitment To Safety
At All Valley Transportation, we take safety and cleanliness very seriously. Our drivers are certified professionals who have gone through extensive safety training to ensure the best possible experience for our customers.
We also use top-of-the-line vehicles that are regularly sanitized and inspected to maintain high standards of cleanliness. Masks are okay for passengers or drivers to wear, but they are no longer legally required. From daily sanitation to extra handwashing and ensuring adequate ventilation in our vehicles, we are constantly working on new ways to make your commute safe.
Benefits of Using Limo Service for Those at Risk
Understandably, many people are still nervous about using public transportation and want to do whatever they can to protect themselves and others, including the elderly or sick.
Luckily, private transportation is still available, and it’s a great way to reduce the risk of exposure. With private transport, passengers can practice social distancing by staying in their own vehicle. Travelers will not have to worry about potentially being exposed to COVID-19 through contact with other passengers or surfaces on public transportation. These benefits are not only practical, but they also offer our passengers a lot of peace of mind when they’re traveling with us in and around Phoenix.

Along with safety measures, other benefits of hiring All Valley Transportation for your private transportation include:
EXTRA SPACE
It’s still common to see signs encouraging people to keep six feet of space between them whenever possible. While it’s not always feasible to remain six feet apart from other people, there are plenty of things you can do to keep your space.
Rather than piling into a tight SUV, limousines offer plenty more room for you and other passengers to space out from one another. If passengers include different families, each family can also sit in their own “pod,” maintaining more distance from other households.
CLEANLINESS
The added space is just one of the impressive benefits of hiring a limo service during a pandemic and beyond. At the same time, you’ll also get the peace of mind of knowing you’re in a clean, well-maintained vehicle.
Before you enjoy limo services in Phoenix from All Valley Transportation, you’ll know the vehicle you’re riding in has been cleaned and sanitized just for you.
Unfortunately, this isn’t always possible when using public transportation and taxi services. During a taxi, train, or bus ride, you not only come into contact with dozens of strangers, but you’re also exposed to any germs they leave behind too!
REDUCING CROSS-CONTAMINATION
In addition to the peace of mind you get knowing your limo has been cleaned and sanitized for you, you’ll take comfort in knowing it doesn’t have hundreds–or even thousands–of other people coming into contact with it each day.
Unlike public transportation and taxi services, our limo fleet only caters to select clients each day. Ultimately, this drastically reduces the risk of cross-contamination because high-touch surfaces can be disinfected between use.
COMFORT
Our fleet includes more than 20 vehicles. In addition to keeping each one clean, safe, and looking its best, we do whatever we can to ensure your ride is as comfortable as possible. And during these uncertain times, you deserve an effortless, relaxing experience.
To ensure you have the best experience, we’ve taken into account every detail of your experience. This includes everything from the booking process to the completion of your limo ride in Phoenix.
We’ve also made sure you have luxurious amenities like:
- Wi-Fi capability in many of our vehicles
- State-of-the-art sound systems
- Plush furnishings
- Wet bars
