Match playlist length to the service window
A four-hour booking is not four hours of continuous dancing. Loading, photos, and venue time change how long music needs to carry the cabin. Use the calculator as a floor, then add extras for skips.

Downtown tunnels and crowded networks can stall streaming. Download the playlist offline before pickup so the ride does not depend on signal.
