Need a corporate sedan in JFK
 
Hi everyone
I am seeking advice for a Limo hire company in JFK. Some of my clients are arriving next week. I want to arrange a Sedan for them to pick them from the airport. This is the first time I am handling a business event, so I wanna make the most of this business event. Any suggestions and ideas are welcome.

I want a Corporate Sedan for this purpose.


Please advice..

The biggest car services in NYC are Carmel and Dial 7 and both offer the option of an "upgrade" which is a full size sedan - usually a Lincoln Town Car (rather than a basic sedan). If you prefer an actual limousine that is available too. And I would assume you want "meet and greet" service, with the driver standing by the luggage carousel with a sign showing the traveler's name. Note that these driver do NOT wear uniforms.

Do reserve in advance and make sure these details are confirmed. Get a confirmed price including bridge or tunnel toll and tip.

If you need a driver in a uniform you really do need to check one of the special corporate companies - which typically charge considerably more (unless you have a large volume corporate discount).

I travel often to NY from LA and usually someone arranges for my pick up. Everyone used to use Carmel or Music Express, but lately most companies seem to have switched to Wiro Limo -- absolutely terrific and super trustworthy. The drivers text the day before to confirm, offer water, are flexible about changes and know the best routes into the city. Highly recommended.

When I used to do meet and greets we used Golden Touch. Very reliable.

Bob-the request was from September. One hopes they have found transportation by now.

And why on earth would anyone rely on a google search by a new poster rather than the personal experience of long time posters? I smell an ad.

Agreed - bob obviously knows nothing about this and one should ignore his advice.
