想了很久没有想出特别中意的翻译，欢迎大家来帮忙。“No-Show” 常用在表示按照约定各方都应该到场，大家都准时到了，可是其中一方没有来出席。
下面的英文是该词出现的地方，只供参考：
If you need to cancel your appointment, please call at least 4 hours prior to your scheduled time. If you do not call to cancel OR you are not present at the pre-arranged pick-up location when the service vehicle arrives, your trip will be considered a “No-Show”. Multiple no-shows during any given month may result in penalties.
谢谢！

失约 / 误约 / 爽约
No show 在不同的场合有不同的译法，因为承担的道义和经济责任不同。
朋友约会，no show 有道义责任，通常译为“失约”、“爽约”，俗一点可译为“放鸽子”。
餐馆定座，no show 责任较小，“逾时不到”，座位给别人就是了。
飞机定座，no show 国内通常叫做“误机”，因为机票已经付款，航空公司损失不大，还可由现场候补( go show )的旅客补位。误机者改乘其他航班交付一些改机费即可。
这里的小巴服务似乎是一种专人服务，约定责任较大，因为如果客人不到，公司损失较大。所以译为“失约”或“误约”较好。

未露面
I think a 'no show' is someone who doesn't show up.
show up (informal非正式) = to arrive at a place where you are expected, 来到,出席
"He didn't show up at the party until after midnight."
"他直到午夜后才在聚会上露面."
