Manhattan Car Service

True North VIP serves Manhattan from Lower Manhattan through Midtown to the Upper East Side, Upper West Side and Harlem.

Use the neighborhood and a complete street address together when you arrange a pickup. Neighborhood names help describe the area, while the building name and entrance tell your chauffeur where to meet you. This is especially useful when several businesses, hotel entrances or office towers share an address or when a passenger will use a particular lobby door.

Pair a neighborhood name with the complete pickup address. For a Midtown hotel, include its full name, street address and the door the passenger will use. At a Financial District office, add the building name and entrance. For a residence, give the street number and any clear entrance detail that helps the passenger and chauffeur find the same location.

The borough is also a starting point for trips to other parts of New York and the surrounding region. Connect a Manhattan address with an airport, rail station, office, hotel, restaurant or another destination in your ride request. For broader coverage and cross-borough travel, see Car Service NYC. For airport planning across the region, visit NYC Airport Car Service.

Manhattan-area example prices start at $144 for a 4-mile trip from Times Square to Wall Street in an Executive Sedan.

Your quote is based on the pickup, destination and selected vehicle. The examples below show several Manhattan routes and let you compare four vehicle classes before entering your own trip details. Executive Sprinter and Jet Sprinter trips are quoted on request.

Example prices from our booking engine, October 2026. Taxes, tolls and fees included; gratuity optional. Your exact price is shown before you book.

The table covers airport trips from Midtown and the Upper East Side, a Lower Manhattan airport trip, and a short cross-town ride. Mileage identifies the sample route, while the vehicle columns show how the same trip price varies by class. Enter the actual pickup and destination to see your trip quote.

For airport route details, compare Manhattan to JFK car service, Manhattan to LGA car service and Manhattan to Newark Airport car service. For arrivals into the city, see JFK to Manhattan car service, LaGuardia to Manhattan car service and Newark to Manhattan car service. The route pages focus on those airport journeys, while this page covers Manhattan pickups across neighborhoods and trip types.

The MTA applies a per-trip charge by for-hire vehicle category to trips to, from, within or through the Congestion Relief Zone.

The zone covers local streets and avenues south of and including 60th Street. The MTA describes an exception for travel exclusively on the FDR Drive, West Side Highway or Route 9A, and the Hugh L. Carey connections to West Street. The zone charge is distinct from the New York State congestion surcharge.

The applicable trip charges are reflected in the price shown for your ride. Use the trip quote to see the amount that applies, because the MTA category depends on the for-hire vehicle classification. The MTA Congestion Relief Zone page explains the current boundary and vehicle categories.

This distinction can matter when a trip starts or ends near the boundary, or when a route crosses the zone on local streets. Lower Manhattan and Midtown addresses can follow different paths. The MTA's roadway exception applies only to trips using the listed roadways exclusively.

Without meet and greet, your chauffeur meets you where the airport tells prearranged car services to go; the table shows the standard pickup point at each airport.

If you want an inside-terminal meeting, add the $25 meet and greet. Your chauffeur meets you inside with a name sign and helps with luggage. A dedicated greeter is a separate $150 add-on. The greeter waits inside the terminal and can be useful during terminal construction or for VIP arrivals. See Airport Meet and Greet for the service options.

Include the terminal in your ride details so the chauffeur's meeting point matches your arrival.

Airline flight tracking is included. Add your airline and flight number when you book so the arrival information can support pickup coordination. Airport bookings have a 60-minute wait time after a domestic landing and a 90-minute wait time after an international landing.

We meet arriving private flights at JFK, Newark, Teterboro (TEB), Westchester (HPN), Republic (FRG), Long Island MacArthur (ISP), Morristown (MMU), East Hampton (HTO), Gabreski in Westhampton Beach (FOK) and Trenton-Mercer (TTN). Your chauffeur meets you in the FBO lobby, or planeside when the FBO allows it. Send the FBO and tail number, or your flight team's timing, and we coordinate your pickup.

NYC Tourism lists general airport-to-Midtown road estimates of 40 to 60 minutes from JFK, 20 to 45 minutes from LaGuardia and 45 to 60 minutes from Newark.

NYC Tourism publishes these general Midtown estimates; your Manhattan address, airport terminal, departure time, traffic and weather affect the trip. The agency notes that busy periods can push the JFK drive beyond an hour, and Newark travel varies with traffic and weather. Use the ranges as a starting point for planning the airport leg, then allow time for check-in, security and the reason for your travel.

For an airport departure, enter the Manhattan pickup address and the terminal you need. For an arrival, enter the airport and terminal, then the Manhattan destination. Adding the flight number to an airline arrival helps coordinate the pickup as arrival information changes. Airport arrivals have the domestic or international wait time described above.

If your travel day includes a meeting, train connection or another airport, build those details into your schedule before requesting the ride. An official tourism estimate describes a broad drive range, while your trip has its own origin, destination and travel time. Airport route pages provide additional planning details for each destination.

True North VIP offers six vehicle classes, with passenger capacities from two to 13.

Choose by passenger count first, then include the bags everyone will bring. Luggage capacity varies by vehicle, so add suitcases, carry-ons and other bags when you request the ride. The True North VIP fleet page lists the available classes.

Sedans are listed for parties of up to two or three passengers, and SUVs for up to six. Larger groups can compare the Executive Sprinter and Jet Sprinter capacities in the table. Sprinter trips are quoted on request, so include your pickup, destination, passenger count and bag count.

Child seats of every type (infant, convertible and booster) are $25 each in SUVs and Sprinters, never in sedans. Read the NYC car service with child seats page for the policy and planning details.

For a station pickup, give the station or hall, street address and the entrance you will use.

A station name can refer to several halls, doors and curb areas. At Moynihan, Amtrak's published taxi and app-based pickup locations are specific to those services; use the meeting information shared for your prearranged chauffeur pickup. Identify the train hall and street entrance in your ride details. See Grand Central Terminal car service for planning around that station.

Port Authority's taxi hail area is on Eighth Avenue between West 41st and West 42nd Streets. The airport bus stops differ by destination: the Newark airport bus uses West 41st Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenues, while the JFK and LaGuardia airport buses use West 42nd Street between those avenues. These are useful orientation points for bus passengers. For a chauffeur pickup, enter your actual arrival point and use the meeting details shared for your ride.

When one trip begins at a station and ends at a Manhattan hotel or office, provide both locations. If you are meeting a passenger, share the station hall and entrance so the passenger can go to the same place. If a later return is part of the plan, enter its pickup location and destination separately so each leg has its own meeting point.

Enter the building name, full street address and exact entrance, and remember that every regular pickup has a 15-minute grace period, after which waiting time applies.

Manhattan buildings often have multiple doors, loading areas or entrances on different streets. For a hotel, include the hotel's full name and the entrance where the passenger expects to meet the chauffeur. For an office tower, add the building name and the entrance closest to the meeting location. At a residence, restaurant or venue, provide the street number and entrance details.

NYC DOT identifies hotel loading zones as No Standing zones used for quick hotel guest pickup and drop-off. Neighborhood Loading Zones allow taxi and car-service pickups and drop-offs. Posted curb signs determine the permitted use at a location, so choose a meeting point that fits the posted signs and the ride details.

If you arrange the ride for a guest or colleague, share the pickup time, street address and entrance with the passenger before the ride. That gives the traveler and chauffeur the same meeting point.

Hourly chauffeur service is available with a 3-hour minimum in four vehicle classes.

Example prices from our booking engine, October 2026. Taxes, tolls and fees included; gratuity optional. Your exact price is shown before you book.

Hourly service can fit a planned sequence of Manhattan stops, several meetings, a dining plan or a day with multiple destinations. Choose a class by passenger count and luggage, then request the number of hours needed for the schedule. The three-hour minimum gives you a clear starting point for comparing hourly service with separate trips.

The published hourly rates apply to the four classes shown. Sprinter rides are quoted on request. If the party or bag count calls for a larger vehicle, provide those details while arranging the trip rather than choosing a sedan or SUV by passenger seats alone.

For a schedule with different locations, list each address and the order of stops when you request the ride. A business traveler may need to move between an office, a meeting and a station; a visitor may plan a hotel pickup, an appointment and dinner. The hourly option is for travelers who want to plan several destinations within one booking.

See Hourly Car Service NYC for the service details and vehicle rates. For a single trip between two addresses, compare the route-based quote for the pickup and destination instead.

Approved corporate accounts can use company invoicing and cost centers, with chauffeur continuity available on request where possible.

A business booking can include an employee's airport transfer, an office pickup, a station connection or travel between meeting locations. Provide each passenger's pickup address, destination, time, passenger count and bags. For an airport arrival, include the airline and flight number. For a station pickup, identify the hall and street entrance. Those specifics give the traveler a clear pickup plan.

Companies with an approved account can use company invoicing and cost centers. If the same chauffeur is requested across trips, continuity is available on request where possible. Share the schedule and locations when arranging the rides, and use Corporate Car Service NYC for information about corporate accounts.

An assistant arranging a ride for an executive or guest should share the meeting point directly with the passenger. For a group, check the six vehicle capacities and enter the full passenger and bag counts before choosing a class.

A complete ride request includes the pickup, destination, travel time, passenger count, bag count and vehicle class.

Use the details below to prepare your request:

1. Pickup address, building name and the entrance where the passenger will meet the chauffeur.
2. Destination address, including the airport, terminal, station or venue when relevant.
3. Date and pickup time, with a separate pickup point for each leg of a multi-stop or return plan.
4. Passenger count and bag count, so the vehicle class fits the trip.
5. Airline and flight number for an airline arrival; include the FBO and tail number, or your flight team's timing, for a private flight.
6. Child seat request, if needed, with each child's age, weight and height.
7. Hourly service request, if the schedule calls for multiple stops, with at least three hours selected.

Review the pickup details before submitting. For an airport arrival, choose the standard pickup point listed in the airport table above, or request the $25 inside-terminal meet and greet. A $150 dedicated greeter is available as a separate terminal service.

Use the online request form for any time of day or call 888-887-0324. Dispatch and phone support are available 24/7. A complete request helps match the pickup location, vehicle class and travel schedule to the trip you are planning.
