BACKED BY WORLD CLASS BRANDS
Preferred choice for assistants, planners, and travel managers who need it done right.
John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) is New York City's largest and busiest airport, serving over 62.5 million passengers annually across six terminals. As the primary gateway for international travel to and from the United States, JFK handles flights from virtually every major airline and destination worldwide. Whether you're arriving from London on British Airways, Tokyo on Japan Airlines, or Dubai on Emirates, you deserve a seamless ground transportation experience that matches the quality of your flight.
Our JFK airport car service has been refined through years of experience to deliver a stress-free arrival experience. We understand that after a long international flight, the last thing you want is to navigate crowded taxi lines or decipher AirTrain connections. That's why our professional chauffeurs wait for you inside the terminal, ready to assist with your luggage and escort you directly to a meticulously maintained luxury vehicle.
What sets Detailed Drivers apart is our obsessive attention to detail. We don't simply dispatch a driver to JFK and hope for the best. Our sophisticated flight tracking system monitors your aircraft from departure through landing, automatically adjusting pickup times for delays or early arrivals. We account for JFK's variable customs processing times for international flights, the notoriously unpredictable traffic on the Van Wyck Expressway, and terminal-specific pickup procedures that differ across each of JFK's six terminals.
Our fleet includes luxury sedans like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7 Series for solo executives, spacious SUVs like the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator for families, and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans for groups up to 14 passengers. Every vehicle is equipped with complimentary bottled water, phone chargers, and WiFi on request.
For corporate travelers and executive assistants, we offer streamlined booking, centralized billing, and detailed trip reporting. Our corporate accounts integrate with major expense management systems, making reconciliation simple. Many of New York's leading investment banks, law firms, hedge funds, and consulting companies trust us exclusively for their JFK transportation needs.
Beyond Manhattan, we provide JFK car service to Brooklyn, Long Island, The Hamptons, Westchester, Connecticut, and New Jersey. Whether you're heading to a Wall Street office, a Hamptons weekend house, or a Greenwich estate, our chauffeurs know the optimal routes and can navigate any destination with precision.
