Frequently Asked Questions
JFK, LGA, or Newark — which is the right pickup for Midtown?
LGA is the closest at ~25-35 minutes off-peak via the BQE; ideal for short-haul domestic. EWR is ~30-50 minutes via the Lincoln Tunnel — best for international and United hub flights. JFK is ~40-60 minutes via the Belt Parkway — broadest international and long-haul coverage. We meet at all three with the same flight monitoring and curbside protocols.
Teterboro planeside pickup?
Yes — planeside FBO pickup at Signature, Meridian, Jet Aviation, and Atlantic Aviation at Teterboro (TEB). Chauffeur stages at the FBO ramp on flight arrival; ~25-40 minutes into Midtown via the GW Bridge or Lincoln Tunnel off-peak. Westchester (HPN) and Republic (FRG) also covered for tri-state private aviation.
Hamptons weekend transportation?
Multi-day packages cover Friday outbound (book outbound for Wednesday-Thursday departure to avoid Friday-evening LIE bottleneck), Saturday venue runs across Southampton/Bridgehampton/East Hampton/Montauk, and Sunday return. Ferry-coordinated Block Island and Shelter Island routings available. Hamptons summer Fridays require Wednesday booking lock.
Corporate accounts for Midtown / Wall Street / Hudson Yards?
Yes — daily executive commute programs across Midtown, the Financial District, and Hudson Yards. Recurring corporate slots can queue the same chauffeur for continuity. Volume discounting at 30+ bookings/month; dedicated account manager for portfolios above 100 trips/month.
US Open, NYC Marathon, NYE — high-demand event windows?
US Open finals (early September), NYC Marathon Sunday (first Sunday in November), and NYE in Times Square are the tightest NYC demand windows. Premium-vehicle availability tightens 4-8 weeks ahead; we recommend booking the moment your event tickets or hotel are confirmed. Met Gala week and major Broadway opening nights see similar tightening.
