| quote_ride | Estimate Black Car Service SUV fares in the San Francisco Bay Area for SFO, OAK and SJC airport transfers, point-to-point rides and hourly chauffeur service, for 1–6 passengers. Pickup and destination must both resolve to California or Nevada, and at least one endpoint must be in the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area; geographic eligibility does not guarantee service. Pickup dates begin tomorrow in America/Los_Angeles. Hourly rides require hours (1–24); other ride types omit hours. The price excludes extras and gratuity. No availability check, hold, reservation, or payment is performed. |
| check_ride_availability | Check a requested Bay Area SUV pickup time against current scheduling constraints. Pickup and destination must both resolve to California or Nevada, and at least one endpoint must be in the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area. Supply the same route, pickup time and passenger inputs as quote_ride. Returns only available, unavailable, or unknown. An available result is tentative and is not a hold or reservation; complete the request at https://www.blackcarservice.co/book. Hourly rides require hours (1–24); other ride types omit hours. |
| book_ride | After the customer explicitly confirms a quote_ride estimate and trip, create a pending reservation and return its secure website checkout link. Requires the exact signed booking_token from that quote plus customer-provided name, email and phone. Rechecks price and live availability. Does not hold a vehicle, confirm payment, charge a card, or enroll SMS. Reuse the SAME token and contact details on retries; uncertain outcomes must not be bypassed with a new token. Never request payment credentials. |
