The second one is the executive traveller who visits the Gold Coast mainly for conferences and meetings, a lot of organiosations hold their annual conferences here as it allows people to work and play a littlew after the work is done. And as per usual, with the dozens of corporate sedans, that we have in Brisbane as well as on the Gold coast, we attend tot he needs of these executives very well indeed.
We offer airport transfer solutions in the Gold Coast area. Our car service is focused on providing the most efficient, comfortable and elegant ground transport services for both corporate and high-level private individuals. To that end, we offer a number of services in and around the city.

When you leave your plan you’ll find them waiting for you. If you’re travelling as a group, our fleet has minibuses capable of handling up to 12 passengers at a time. Buses can be made available on request.
In some cases executives will fly to Brisbane as they have more flight options, and they will book an airport transfer from the Brisbane area , all the way down to the Gold Coast, once again this is a long trip, and you would want to make sure that the car and company you choose are absolutely reliable.
Even a transfer from Gold Coast airport to Main Beach is 32km in distance alone.

If you have day-long meetings or many stopovers between meetings we recommend that you hire us on an hourly basis. It could prove more cost-effective.
In some cases, an executive will start their day in Brisbane and have several meetings down the coast, they will work their way down and end up in one of the hotel on he coast, when booking an hourly hire with Cars on Demand, we do not charge you for the KM driven, we only charge you per hour or per minute.
We always recommend that if you are unsure about the length of time needed, its best that you book for less hours as we can always add afterwards, but we cannot subtract.
Cars On Demand technoplogy and fail safe mechanisms
There are not that many flights to and from Gold Coast airport, so if you missed your flight, it would be a disater.
At Cars on Demand we use state of the art technolgy and we learn from our mistakes and we try to use technology to stops these mistakes from ever hapenning again.
90 minutes before each transfer, the website will promt drivers to confirm that they are on the way, if a driver does not do this, our computer systems will call this driver and remind them, and if there is no response then the computer will call the manager on duty and alert them that a driver has not confirmed. Luckily this is a very rare occurences as all of our drivers are reliable.
In the past maybe one transfer out of 5000 might have been missed, with this new technology, we have brought that number down to ZERO.
