Fylde Borough council have issued Jet Set Limousines the first ever liquor licence to be granted to a limo hire company in Blackpool or the Fylde.

Owner Kevin Hinds said, “We are obviously delighted with the news. It’s good news for our clients too as the police have been clamping down on other local limo hire firms. It means that Jet Set limousine hirers can relax and enjoy a drink knowing that they are safe to do so.”

A Fylde borough council spokesperson said ” Jet Set Limousines are the first private hire limo company that we know of to have successfully applied for and been granted a private hire licence and an alcohol licence. We wish all other limo firms in the UK were run like Jet Set who are setting the standards for rest of the industry to follow”.

Jet Set were of course the first local limo operator to be awarded a local authority private hire licence at the turn of the millennium.

Jet Set Limousines has been informed that yet another one of our chauffeurs have been voted in to this years chauffeur of the year finals to be held in September 07.

Clients and members of the public throughout Lancashire and the whole of the UK have been voting like crazy all year for their favourite chauffeurs and Jet Set Limousines based near Blackpool & Preston in Lancashire has been very strongly supported.

There are thousands of chauffeurs throughout the UK but it would appear that the Jet Set chauffeurs are rated most highly by the voting public.

Blackpool based Kate Bethel has received so many votes that she joins her colleague Patrick Cuddihy in the final. There has never before been a company to have 2 chauffeurs represented in what is usually a 4 or 5 person industry final so we are hopeful that one of the pair may win.

Whoever wins it is an unprecedented achievement and we are extremely proud of them both.

If you thought being a chauffeur meant just driving a limousine, then think again.

 During a recent wedding in Lytham near Blackpool, Jet Set limo chauffeur Kate Bethel came to the rescue to avert potential disaster.

One of the bridesmaids, stepped on  the hem of her wedding gown and ripped it. Rather than walk up the aisle with a torn dress,  her chauffeur decided to effect emergency repairs and stitched up the dress in the back of the limo where no-one else could see.  The ceremony took place a few minutes later than planned but everyone was happy in the end.

You can believe it when we say that the Jet Set chauffeurs are the finest in the UK.
