Which code does this activity belong in?
Code 48599 covers shuttle services and special needs transportation that do not fit elsewhere in ground passenger transportation. Shuttle services travel metropolitan areas on regular routes and schedules to serve hotels, airports, and similar destinations; these differ from taxi and limousine services classified in 4853, which operate on a reserved basis without fixed routes or schedules. Special needs transportation for infirm, elderly, or handicapped passengers, potentially using specially equipped vehicles, also falls here. The code excludes urban transit systems, interurban bus services, taxi and limousine operations, school and employee bus services, and charter bus operations, each classified in their respective categories.
