If your trip requires an overnight stay, you must provide hotel accommodations for your driver. The hotel should be a national chain or equivalent, and the room must be private (not shared with passengers). For multi-day or long-distance trips, federal law limits the number of hours a driver can operate the vehicle without rest, so proper lodging is essential. If you do not arrange accommodations, we can add the cost to your invoice and handle the booking. Please discuss this with your reservation specialist when planning your itinerary.
