Airport car service rates in New York
Quick answer: Hourly hire is $120 per hour for a sedan and $150 per hour for an SUV, with gratuity and fees included. S-Class starts at $175 per hour and Sprinter at $200 per hour. Every hourly booking has a 3-hour minimum. Direct airport transfers are quoted by route.
This page is the rate board for every airport, area and service on the site. The same four vehicle classes and the same hourly figures apply whether the car starts at JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, Teterboro, Westchester County or MacArthur, or at a hotel in Midtown. What changes from trip to trip is the format you choose, hourly or direct transfer, and the trip-specific items that only a route can decide, such as tolls and parking.

Hourly hire or direct transfer?
Hourly hire keeps a chauffeur and vehicle with you for a booked window, with a 3-hour minimum. It is the right choice when the car needs to wait: a long customs line, a meeting between the airport and the hotel, a string of stops across Manhattan, or a group arriving on two flights. Waiting inside an hourly booking uses the booked time.
Direct transfers take you from one address to another, for example from an airport terminal to a hotel door. They do not carry the 3-hour minimum. Each one is quoted for its route, and generic point-to-point floors are $130 for a sedan and $160 for an SUV. Those floors are not airport fares; the airport, distance and crossings decide the actual quote. Waiting on a transfer follows the written quote. See point-to-point car service and hourly charter for more.
What can change a quote
- Tolls on bridges and tunnels, especially trips that cross the Hudson to Newark or Teterboro.
- Parking and airport access charges, particularly for an inside greeting.
- Extra stops added to a transfer, such as a second passenger's address.
- Extra time beyond the booked hourly window.
- Vehicle class and availability for S-Class and Sprinter, which are starting rates.
Compare written totals, not a base hourly figure against an all-in app screenshot. If an item is not on your confirmation, ask before you travel rather than after.
Choosing the class by passengers and bags
Seat count is not trunk space. A sedan or S-Class suits one to three people with light luggage. An SUV is the step up for families, a third adult with large suitcases, or a stroller. A Sprinter keeps a team, a wedding party or a large family together with all its bags. Photos and notes for each class are on the fleet page.
Rates by airport
Each airport page repeats these rates alongside pickup notes: JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, Teterboro, Westchester County and MacArthur. The full list is on the airports page.
Frequently asked questions
What is included in the sedan and SUV hourly rate?
The $120 sedan and $150 SUV hourly rates include gratuity and fees. Trip-specific items such as tolls, parking, airport access charges and extra stops are confirmed on the written quote.
Why are S-Class and Sprinter shown as "from"?
S-Class from $175 per hour and Sprinter from $200 per hour are starting rates. The booking form confirms the final price, which can vary with taxes, tolls and availability.
Does an airport transfer have a 3-hour minimum?
No. The 3-hour minimum applies to hourly hire, when the car is retained. A direct airport transfer receives its own point-to-point quote for that route.
What are the point-to-point floors?
Generic point-to-point floors are $130 for a sedan and $160 for an SUV. They are floors, not airport fares: an airport transfer is quoted for the actual route.
