Typical Scenarios & Challenges
As multinational operations in China grow, expat executives travel more for airport transfers, intercity trips, multi-stop visits, conferences, and long-term assignments. These scenarios create unique requirements for reliability, communication and corporate compliance.
Common Scenarios
Airport ⇄ hotel ⇄ meeting transfers (late arrivals, heavy luggage)
Intercity business trips (e.g., Shanghai–Suzhou/Hangzhou/Nanjing/Beijing)
Multi-stop day itineraries with last-minute changes
Daily commute for long-term expats + family errands
Conferences, luxury brand events, and exhibitions with multi-fleet dispatch
Key Challenges
Language barriers impacting efficiency and experience
Unreliable service: tardiness, cancellations, vehicle swaps
Fragmented accountability; no single responsible party
Complex billing; non-compliant invoices for corporate finance
Safety and contingency risks at night, in other cities, or during changes
Why Ride-hailing Isn’t Ideal for Executives
Ride-hailing Limitations
Communication friction; nuanced requirements are hard to convey
Different views on punctuality & business etiquette
Poor coordination during changes; no multi-role sync (driver/CS/dispatcher/finance)
No SLA-backed accountability or backup guarantees
Risks with Private Drivers
Inconsistent standards; no unified training or processes
Last-minute dropouts due to higher-paying gigs; no redundancy
Opaque billing and invoicing; difficult reimbursement
Unclear privacy & safety controls; no centralized risk management
