Arrivals and Departures

Two Kinds of Airport Trip

Arrivals

Where your flight can be tracked, your chauffeur is timed to its arrival at the gate; otherwise to your booked pickup time. Waiting of 30 minutes for domestic flights and one hour for international flights is included. Before pickup, you receive the chauffeur’s name, direct number and vehicle details.

Departures

Tell us your pickup address, pickup time, airport and departure terminal. Your chauffeur drops you at your terminal’s departures door.

How You Are Met

Curbside or Meet-and-Greet

Curbside Pickup

Included on every booking. Where your chauffeur meets you depends on the airport and terminal; each has its own pickup area for pre-arranged cars. Your chauffeur’s details reach you before pickup so you can reach each other directly.

Meet-and-Greet

Your chauffeur parks, comes inside the terminal, waits for you in arrivals with a name sign, and walks you to the car. Request it when you book. $30 plus airport parking at cost.

The Three Majors

JFK, LaGuardia and Newark

Where your chauffeur meets you depends on the terminal, so check your terminal with your airline before you travel; it may differ from the one on your booking.

John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)

JFK’s terminals are spread across a large site, and there is no airside connection between them, so your terminal determines where your chauffeur can meet you.

LaGuardia Airport (LGA)

LaGuardia’s two passenger terminals, B and C, have separate arrival areas and pickup procedures. Your terminal determines where your chauffeur meets you and how you reach the car.

Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR)

Newark has three passenger terminals, with pickup arrangements that vary by terminal. Traffic around the airport can make the approach less predictable, so the terminal and pickup point matter.

Private Aviation and Regional Airports

Teterboro, Westchester, Republic, MacArthur and Morristown

Private flights are met at the FBO handling your aircraft. Where the aircraft can be tracked, we follow it; where it cannot, the pickup is arranged against the confirmed booking time. Ramp-side collection is available where you arrange access with the FBO and the FBO permits it.

Teterboro Airport (TEB)

A private-aviation airport with several FBOs rather than a passenger terminal. Your chauffeur meets you at the FBO handling your flight.

Westchester County Airport (HPN)

Serves both commercial passengers and private aviation. Commercial pickups follow the passenger-terminal procedures; private flights are met at the FBO.

Republic Airport (FRG)

A general-aviation airport with no scheduled airline service. Corporate, charter and private flights are handled through its FBOs, with your chauffeur meeting you at the appropriate facility.

Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP)

Serves scheduled commercial flights as well as general aviation. Commercial passengers use the terminal pickup procedures; private flights are met at the FBO.

Morristown Municipal Airport (MMU)

A general-aviation airport in Morris County, New Jersey, with private and corporate flights handled through its FBOs. Your chauffeur meets you at the FBO serving your flight.

Further Afield

Bradley, Philadelphia, Stewart and smaller Connecticut airports are booked as long-distance travel rather than airport transportation. Ask when you book.

The Same Everywhere

Flight Tracking and Included Waiting

Flight Tracking

Included on every airport booking where flight-status data is available. Your pickup follows the updated arrival time; if you change flights or are diverted to another airport, tell dispatch.

Included Waiting

30 minutes for domestic flights and one hour for international flights, counted from arrival at the gate. If the flight cannot be tracked, waiting is counted from the booked pickup time. Waiting beyond the allowance is charged at the hourly rate for your vehicle class, for the exact minutes waited.

If the Airline Cancels Your Flight

You are not charged. Dispatch contacts you to reschedule; if the trip is not rescheduled, the booking is cancelled.

No-Shows

A booking is treated as a no-show one hour after the flight’s arrival at the gate if we have had no contact or reply.

Booking an Airport Trip

What to Send for Your Quote

The travel date; pickup and destination; airline and flight number, or for a private flight the FBO and tail number; the passenger’s name and mobile number; the number of passengers and bags; and whether you would like meet-and-greet. Any class in the fleet can be booked for an airport trip.

Before You Book

What If My Flight Is Delayed?

For tracked flights, your pickup follows the updated arrival time. Tell dispatch if you change flights or are diverted to another airport.

Do You Serve Every Terminal?

Yes. Where your chauffeur meets you depends on the terminal, so confirm your terminal with your airline before you travel.

Are Tolls and Gratuity Included?

Tolls are itemized in your quote before you confirm. Gratuity is not included, is entirely at your discretion, and is never added automatically.

Which Vehicle Should I Book?

Tell us your passenger count and luggage, and dispatch confirms the right class. Up to 3 passengers in a sedan; up to 6 passengers with 4 large cases in an SUV; 11 to 14 in a Sprinter, depending on configuration.
