Hourly starting rates
Hourly service keeps the chauffeur with you. Point-to-point is one pickup and one drop-off. These are starting rates, not a quote for every route.

A reserved car, not a category name
Luxury car service here means the vehicle class and the chauffeur are booked before you leave. You name a sedan, an SUV, an S-Class, or a Sprinter. The confirmation names the class you accepted. It is not a self-drive rental, and it is not a stretch limousine. Wedding timing and a formal procession sit on the limousine page. A working day of meetings sits on the executive car service page.
Residents use the same booking as visitors. A Brooklyn apartment to a Manhattan dinner is the same kind of request as a hotel arrival after a flight, with different pickup notes. The building entrance, the passenger count, and the bags decide the car.
Hourly when the evening has more than one stop
Point-to-point fits one pickup and one destination: home to JFK, a hotel to a theater, an office to an apartment. The sedan floor is $130 and the SUV floor is $160. Those floors are minimums. A longer route, tolls, and the vehicle class change the quote.
Hourly fits a night with more than one address, or a car that should wait. Starting rates are $120, $150, $175, and $200 an hour, and the minimum is three hours. A three-hour sedan is $360. A three-hour Sprinter is $600. If you add a fourth hour, it is another hour at the same starting rate, then the quote adds tolls, parking, and any extra wait you asked for. Do not expect a single flat price for 'the evening.'
Borough trips residents actually book
Manhattan pickups need the door you will use. A Midtown hotel, a Fifth Avenue building, and a side-street brownstone are different meeting points. Say which entrance.
Brooklyn and Queens requests should name the neighborhood and the door. A Park Slope stoop, a Williamsburg lobby, and a Forest Hills house are not the same curb. Airport runs from those boroughs are common: JFK and LaGuardia from Queens and much of Brooklyn, Newark when the flight is in New Jersey. Send the flight number and whether you are arriving or departing.
The Bronx and Staten Island are the same service with a different approach. Staten Island often uses the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. A Westchester or Greenwich continuation is a longer hourly booking, not a Manhattan crosstown. Say so when you request the car.
Visitors, airports, and the first ride after landing
If you are visiting, the first ride is usually an airport transfer and the later rides are hourly. JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, Teterboro, and Westchester County Airport each have their own meeting pattern. Follow the airport page and the meeting note on your confirmation. Do not send the driver to a door you remember from a previous trip.
A visitor who wants dinner, a show, and a return to the hotel should book hourly for that block, separate from the airport transfer, unless the gap between landing and the first stop is short enough that one continuous booking is simpler. Put both on the request and let the quote split them. Luggage that stays in the car between stops is an hourly decision.
What to send with the request
Send the date, the time the car should be at the first door, each address in order, the passenger count, and the bags. Name the vehicle class you want priced. If a child seat is required, say the age when you book. If two people leave at different times, that is two cars or a later transfer, not one chauffeur in two places.
A request is not a confirmation. You get a reply with availability and the price for that itinerary. Rates on this page are the published starting rates. The booking page takes a single-vehicle reservation. Several vehicles, or a night you are still shaping, can go through the contact form.
Questions before booking
What is the hourly rate for luxury car service in NYC?
Starting hourly rates are $120 for a sedan, $150 for an SUV, $175 for an S-Class, and $200 for a Sprinter. The minimum is three hours, so the starting minimums are $360, $450, $525, and $600. The quote adds tolls, parking, and any extra time.
Is a one-way ride priced by the hour?
No. One pickup and one drop-off is point-to-point. Sedan and SUV floors are $130 and $160. Those are minimums, not the price of every route. Use hourly when the car waits or you have several stops.
Which vehicle should a couple or a family choose?
A sedan or S-Class fits two or three people with light bags. An SUV fits a small family that needs more luggage room. A Sprinter is for a group that should arrive together. Confirm the seat count on the assigned vehicle before you lock the guest list.
Do you cover Brooklyn, Queens, and the airports?
Yes. Pickups are booked across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, and to or from JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, Teterboro, and Westchester County Airport. Send the entrance, the flight number when there is one, and the vehicle class.
