CheapLimo New York, any experience ?
 
Hello,<BR><BR>I received an offer from CheapLimo for airport (limousine) service from JFK to Manhatten. Price is $ 110, has anybody used this company and what experience did you have ?<BR>Is this really cheap or quite expensive....<BR>Any recommendations ?<BR>Thanks,

The last time I used a limo from JFK to Manhattan (about three years ago), I paid $40. I used to take limo's every time I went, but found that a cab (at about the same price) is much easier since I'm not having to find my car, or deal with them not showing up, which happened a couple of times.<BR><BR><BR>

It is expensive. I saw adds for around $50 while in NYC a few months ago.

Try one of these companies - call before your trip to reserve a Town Car, not a Limo.<BR><BR>212-777-7777 Tel Aviv<BR>212-666-6666 or 1-800 9-CARMEL<BR><BR>Should be no more than $45 plus tolls and tip.

Are you looking for an actual Limo (stretch limousine) or just a car service?<BR>Keep in mind also that cabs from JFK airport only (not LGA or Newark)to anywhere in Manhattan are at a fixed rate of $35 plus toll ($3.50) plus tip (about 15%) so you need not worry about getting ripped off if you use a regular cab, There are some larger cabs too (minvans) if you need more space
