Riders can schedule their trips at least one day in advance and have the option to pay for the service through insurance, vouchers, donations, or a membership fee. The pricing details include a suggested donation of $2 one-way. Additionally, the program accepts Medicaid payments and offers a paratransit service for those in need of extra assistance. In addition to providing private rides, the program may also offer shared rides and transportation via car, van, bus, or train. Riders are allowed to schedule on-demand rides and the program ensures that drivers are willing to wait for passengers during errands or appointments. Door-to-door and curb-to-curb transportation services are available, making it easier for older adults to access the transportation they need. Service animals are permitted to accompany riders, and the program caters to varying scheduling needs, from immediate rides to trips scheduled up to one week in advance.
