Pricing & Payment
How much does a limousine or black car service cost in Houston?
HTX Limousines charges flat, published rates rather than metered or surge fares. Airport transfers to and from IAH start at $175 for a luxury sedan and are priced by destination zone. Hourly chauffeur service starts at $169/hr for a sedan, $189/hr for an SUV, and $225/hr for an executive Sprinter. You see the exact total before you book.
Get an instant flat-rate quoteIs gratuity included, or are there hidden fees?
Every HTX Limousines rate is all-inclusive. Gratuity, tolls, fuel, and booking fees are already built into the price you are quoted, so the number you see when you reserve is the number you pay. There is no surge pricing during holidays, bad weather, or major Houston events.
Should I tip the chauffeur on top of the fare?
No extra tip is expected. Gratuity is already included in every HTX Limousines rate. If your chauffeur went above and beyond, an additional tip is always appreciated and goes directly to them.
Do I have to pay when I book?
No payment or deposit is required to reserve a ride. HTX Limousines confirms vehicle availability and the details of your itinerary first, then sends a secure payment link to lock in the reservation. Your card is never charged before your booking is confirmed in writing.
Is there a minimum booking time for hourly service?
Hourly chauffeur service starts at a 3-hour minimum for sedans, SUVs, and Sprinters. Larger specialty vehicles such as stretch limousines, party buses, and coach buses carry a 5-hour minimum. Airport transfers and point-to-point trips are billed as flat fares instead, with no hourly minimum at all.

How far in advance should I book?
Book at least 24 hours ahead for standard sedan and SUV service, and 2 to 4 weeks ahead for weddings, proms, party buses, and major Houston event weekends, when the fleet books out first. HTX Limousines also accepts same-day and last-minute requests around the clock whenever a vehicle is available.
What is your cancellation policy?
Reservations can be cancelled free of charge up to 24 hours before the scheduled pickup time. Cancellations inside that 24-hour window, along with no-shows, may be charged up to the full reservation amount. Special event, multi-vehicle, and stretch limousine bookings can carry a longer cancellation window, which is always disclosed to you at the time of booking.
Read the full termsHow quickly will my booking be confirmed?
HTX Limousines responds to booking requests within about 5 minutes during business hours, and confirms every reservation in writing by email or SMS. Dispatch operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, so overnight and holiday requests are handled the same way.
Can I change my itinerary after booking?
Yes. Extra stops, new pickup times, and vehicle changes can be arranged by calling (832) 246-7539 or replying to your confirmation. Adjustments that add time, mileage, or stops may change the fare, and any difference is quoted to you for approval before it is applied.
Do you offer corporate accounts and monthly invoicing?
Yes. Businesses can open a corporate account with HTX Limousines and receive one consolidated monthly invoice instead of paying ride by ride. Call (832) 246-7539 or email info@htxlimousines.com to set one up.

See IAH flat rates by zoneWhat happens if my flight is delayed?
Your chauffeur monitors your flight in real time and adjusts the pickup automatically, at no extra charge. Because flight tracking is included on every airport pickup, a delayed or early arrival does not require a phone call, a rebooking, or a change fee.
What areas around Houston do you serve?
HTX Limousines serves Houston and the surrounding Texas metro, including Downtown Houston, Sugar Land / Missouri City, The Woodlands / Spring, and Galleria / Memorial / Katy. Long-distance and intercity transfers to other Texas cities are available on request, quoted as a flat fare based on the route.
