Dallas Limo: A Warning About Airport Parking
Welcome to the July 2007 Dallas Limo blog archive. The story below, reported from DFW Airport, shows why so many travelers prefer professional chauffeured transportation to parking their own car in an airport garage.
Traveler Returns to Find Wheels Stolen at DFW Airport
Wednesday, July 4th, 2007 — D/FW AIRPORT. A North Texas traveler returned from a business trip to find her car resting on blocks inside the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport parking garage. Sarita Peterson said she had paid extra for the short-term parking area, believing it was the safest choice because her return flight landed late. Even in the dark, she could tell her Honda Civic was sitting noticeably lower than usual.
"They took the tires, wheels, lug nuts," she said. "They did leave me with two broken jacks." Peterson pointed out that she had paid $17 per day for short-term parking specifically because she thought it offered the best protection, and she expected the total cost of the incident to come close to $1,000.
"There's crime everywhere," airport spokesman David Magana said. "There is not a police department in the world that can prevent every crime." Since the incident happened over a holiday weekend, Peterson had to wait until Monday for an insurance adjustor to inspect her car. An airport official said she would not be charged the $17 daily rate in the meantime.

Our Own Policy at E3 Worldwide Transportation
At E3 Worldwide Transportation we keep a strict rule: our vehicles are never left unattended in DFW parking garages for more than 30 minutes. It is almost remarkable how reliably one of our cars picks up a door ding or scratch whenever we park in the garage to collect a customer at baggage claim. And think about how much money and time Ms. Peterson could have saved by reserving one of our Dallas limos for her DFW airport trip instead of driving her own car.
