Question 1

What is the minimum booking for hourly chauffeur service?

Accepted Answer

The minimum is 3 hours. After the initial minimum, you can extend in 30-minute increments on the spot — just let your chauffeur know. No need to rebook, call dispatch, or open an app. This flexibility is one of the key advantages over booking individual rideshare trips throughout the day.

Question 2

Can I extend my booking if my schedule runs long?

Accepted Answer

Yes, extensions are seamless. Simply tell your chauffeur you need more time. We bill in 30-minute increments beyond the minimum, at the same hourly rate. There is no rebooking, no surge pricing, and no risk of losing your vehicle between stops.

Question 3

What area does hourly service cover?

Accepted Answer

Hourly service covers all five NYC boroughs, Long Island, Westchester, northern New Jersey, and southwestern Connecticut. For trips outside this region, let us know in advance so we can confirm routing and pricing. Our coverage area is significantly broader than what most rideshare services reliably serve.

Question 4

Can I make multiple stops during an hourly booking?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely — that is what hourly service is designed for. Add stops, change destinations, or adjust your timing throughout the day. The chauffeur and vehicle stay with you between appointments. You are not paying for a new ride every time you get in and out of the car.

Question 5

What vehicles are available for hourly bookings?

Accepted Answer

The full fleet is available: Executive Sedans (BMW 5 Series), SUVs (Suburban, Escalade ESV), First-Class Sedans (Mercedes S-Class), and Executive Sprinters for groups up to 14. Your vehicle class is locked for the entire booking — no switching mid-trip to whatever is available, as happens with rideshare.

Question 6

How is hourly service priced?

Accepted Answer

Pricing is based on vehicle class and duration. You receive a clear hourly rate upfront, with no hidden fees. Tolls, parking, WiFi, water, and wait time between stops are all included. Gratuity is optional. Unlike rideshare, there is no surge pricing and no per-mile charges layered on top.

Question 7

When should I book hourly instead of point-to-point?

Accepted Answer

Choose hourly if you have two or more stops, your schedule may shift during the day, or you need the vehicle to wait between appointments. Roadshows, real estate tours, multi-meeting days, and client visits are all ideal for hourly. If you have a single fixed pickup and drop-off with no waiting, point-to-point is more economical.

Question 8

Can I use hourly service for a full-day event?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Full-day bookings of 8–12 hours are common for investor roadshows, corporate retreats, and VIP client days. Your chauffeur is with you from the first pickup to the final drop-off, managing the vehicle, navigation, and timing so you can focus on your schedule.

Question 9

How far in advance should I book hourly service?

Accepted Answer

We recommend booking at least 24 hours ahead to guarantee your preferred vehicle and chauffeur. For peak periods or specialty vehicles like the Executive Sprinter, 48–72 hours is ideal. Corporate account holders receive priority availability and can often confirm same-day.

Question 10

Is hourly service available on weekends and holidays?

Accepted Answer

Yes, hourly chauffeur service is available seven days a week, including holidays. Weekend availability is popular for wedding events, family outings, and personal travel days. The same professional service and vehicle standards apply regardless of the day.
