Long Island MacArthur Airport Car Service (ISP)
Quick answer: Airport Car Service NYC reserves sedans, SUVs, S-Class cars and Sprinters for Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP) in Ronkonkoma. Hourly hire starts at $120 for a sedan and $150 for an SUV with a 3-hour minimum; one-way runs such as ISP to the Hamptons get a route quote. Call (332) 241-7239 or open the booking page.
Long Island MacArthur Airport is owned and run by the Town of Islip and sits in Ronkonkoma, in the middle of Suffolk County. For much of Long Island it is closer than JFK or LaGuardia, and it is a practical arrival point for travelers heading to the North Fork, the South Fork and the Hamptons. The airport has a single passenger terminal, which keeps pickups straightforward, and the Ronkonkoma station of the Long Island Rail Road is nearby for travelers who split a trip between rail and car.
An ISP reservation needs the same core details as any airport trip: the airline and flight number, passenger count, luggage and destination. What changes is the distance on the other side. Many ISP trips are long runs east toward Southampton, East Hampton and Montauk, or west toward Nassau County and the city, so the destination address and any stops should be settled before you submit the form.

How an ISP pickup works
- Open the booking form or call (332) 241-7239 with the airline and flight number.
- Select Long Island MacArthur Airport and add the destination address in full, with any stops in order.
- Say whether you prefer a curbside meeting or an inside greeting.
- Choose a vehicle class for the passengers and luggage, including beach, golf and bike gear.
- Review the written quote and keep the confirmation for the day of travel.
Dispatch uses the flight number to plan around the real arrival time. If you expect to wait for bags or want the car held while you pick up keys or groceries on the way east, book hourly time. Waiting on a direct transfer follows the written quote.
Vehicle options and rates for ISP
Summer trips out east often carry more than their passenger count suggests: coolers, beach chairs, strollers and weekend bags. An SUV is the usual choice for a family, and a Sprinter keeps a larger group and all its luggage in one vehicle. A sedan or S-Class suits a business traveler or a couple with light bags.
Hourly display rates and full-trip estimates are rounded separately. Hourly hire has a three-hour minimum. Direct transfers receive a separate quote; generic sedan $130 and SUV $160 floors are not airport fares. Sedan and SUV hourly rates include gratuity and fees. S-Class and Sprinter are starting rates; the booking form confirms your final price, which can vary with taxes, tolls and availability. Confirm trip-specific tolls, parking and extras.
| Vehicle class | Hourly rate | Minimum | Typical fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sedan | $120 / hour | 3 hours ($360 estimated) | 1 to 3 passengers; confirm bags |
| SUV | $150 / hour | 3 hours ($450 estimated) | Up to 6 passengers; confirm luggage fit |
| S-Class | $175 / hour | 3 hours ($525 estimated) | Premium sedan class; confirm bags |
| Sprinter | $200 / hour | 3 hours ($600 estimated) | Confirm assigned seating and luggage layout |
For a single run from ISP to one house, ask for a direct transfer quote. For a day with stops, such as a lunch in Southampton before checking in, hourly hire is usually clearer. See the rates page and the fleet page for details on each class.
Routes from MacArthur Airport
Heading east, the Long Island Expressway and Sunrise Highway lead toward Riverhead and the forks, with Montauk Highway (Route 27) carrying traffic through Southampton, Bridgehampton and East Hampton. Heading west, the Long Island Expressway and Northern State Parkway run toward Huntington, Nassau County and Queens, with the Queens-Midtown Tunnel or the bridges into Manhattan. Friday afternoons in summer are slow in both directions; this page does not promise a drive time, so add the real dinner or check-in time to the reservation.
For coverage details, see the Hamptons, Long Island and Queens. Longer regional trips are covered on long-distance chauffeur service.
Departures to ISP
For an outbound flight, book the pickup with the departure time, the airline and the pickup address. On summer Sundays and holiday weekends, traffic heading west from the East End builds early, so leave room between the pickup and the flight. Groups leaving from more than one house should list each address in order.
