Airport Car Service

An airport chauffeur service is a pre-booked private car with a professional driver who tracks your flight, meets you at arrivals or the curb, handles your luggage, and drives you straight to your destination at a price agreed before pickup. Detailed Drivers runs airport chauffeur service from its New York headquarters and books it in more than 20 US airport cities.

With Detailed Drivers, JFK to Midtown Manhattan is about $220 in a Business Sedan, $270 in a First Class SUV and $670 in a Sprinter Van. LaGuardia to Midtown is about $170 in a sedan and Newark to Midtown about $220. These are all-in estimates (gratuity, tax and card fee included); your written quote confirms the exact total before you book.

It depends on the trip. A taxi or rideshare is usually cheaper for one traveler with light luggage. A pre-booked airport car service makes more sense when you need a fixed price with no surge, a chauffeur who tracks delays and meets you inside the terminal, room for several bags or passengers, or a guaranteed pickup for an early flight or a client.

Yes. New York is our headquarters, and we book airport car service in more than 20 US cities, including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami, Orlando, Chicago, Washington DC, Boston, Dallas and San Francisco. Each city has its own airport page with local pickup details and pricing.

We provide airport transfer services to all major airports in the New York metropolitan area including JFK International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), Teterboro Airport (TEB) for private jets, Westchester County Airport (HPN), Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP), and Stewart International Airport (SWF). We also serve Philadelphia, Boston, and Washington DC airports for long-distance transfers.

Our sophisticated flight tracking system monitors your flight in real-time using multiple data sources including FAA feeds. If your flight is delayed, arrives early, or is diverted, we automatically adjust your pickup time. Your chauffeur will be positioned and ready when you land and clear customs or baggage claim—no need to call us about delays.

Our all-inclusive pricing covers the vehicle, professional chauffeur, fuel, all tolls (including airport tolls), meet-and-greet service upon request, luggage assistance, complimentary wait time (60 minutes for international flights, 45 minutes for domestic, starting when the flight actually lands), bottled water, WiFi (in most vehicles), and phone chargers. There are no hidden fees or surge pricing.

For curbside pickup, your chauffeur waits in the designated commercial pickup area and will pull up once you exit the terminal. For meet-and-greet service (recommended for international arrivals), your chauffeur waits inside the terminal at the arrivals area with a sign displaying your name. We also offer VIP meet-and-greet with escort through customs at select airports.

We recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance to guarantee vehicle availability, especially for specific vehicle requests or early morning/late night flights. For peak travel periods (holidays, summer weekends), book 1-2 weeks ahead. However, our 24/7 dispatch can often accommodate last-minute requests—call us at (888) 420-0177.

If your flight is cancelled, we will credit your booking for future use or provide a full refund. For significant delays, we monitor your flight and adjust pickup time accordingly at no extra charge. If you need to reschedule due to a cancellation, simply call us and we'll rebook at no additional fee.

Yes, we provide rear-facing infant seats, forward-facing toddler seats, and booster seats upon request at no additional charge. Please specify the ages and weights of children when booking so we can ensure proper safety equipment is installed before pickup.

Absolutely. Many clients book round-trip transfers for convenience. When you book departure and return together, we can offer package pricing. Your return flight is monitored automatically, and your chauffeur will be waiting when you land, even if your return flight time changes.

Our airport transfer fleet includes luxury sedans (Mercedes S-Class, BMW 7 Series) for 1-3 passengers, SUVs (Cadillac Escalade, Lincoln Navigator) for families or groups up to 6 with extra luggage, and Mercedes Sprinter vans for groups up to 14 passengers. All vehicles are late-model, immaculately maintained, and equipped with premium amenities.

For groups arriving on different flights or needing multiple stop pickups, we can arrange coordinated service. We recommend booking an hourly service for complex itineraries, or we can provide separate vehicles timed to each flight. Contact our team at (888) 420-0177 to discuss the best option for your group.

Yes, we specialize in private aviation transfers. We serve all FBOs (Fixed Base Operators) at Teterboro Airport, Westchester County Airport, Republic Airport, and private terminals at JFK and other regional airports. Our chauffeurs are familiar with private terminal protocols and can meet you planeside when permitted.

Gratuity is not included in the base fare to give you flexibility, though many clients choose to add 18-20% for exceptional service. For corporate accounts, we can include gratuity in the invoiced amount for simplified expense reporting. You can tip in cash or add it when paying by card.
