8 Best Reasons to Use a Chauffeured Ground Transportation Provider for Your Next Airport Transfer
Traveling can be stressful, especially when it comes to navigating airports and ensuring timely arrivals and departures. Carey’s founder, J.P. Carey, recognized this challenge as early as 1939 when he began offering chauffeured services outside the newly built La Guardia Airport, in addition to the services offered outside of Grand Central Station. Having personally experienced how chauffeured ground transportation could alleviate many travel-related stressors, J.P. Carey laid the foundation for what would become a legacy of over 100 years of providing seamless airport transfers. Today, Carey provides transfer services to airports (including New York City’s La Guardia Airport) in over 70 countries around the globe. Whether you’re focused on relaxation, efficiency, or productivity, here are eight compelling reasons to consider utilizing chauffeured ground transportation services the next time you need to make your way to or from an airport.
1. Timely Pickups and Real-Time Flight Tracking
Your time is valuable. Carey’s dispatch team is constantly tracking your flight to ensure that your chauffeur is aware of any delays or early arrivals, so you’re never left waiting. With flight status updates and real-time tracking, we ensure that your driver is always on time and ready when you arrive, providing you with the peace of mind to focus on your travels.
2. Direct and Convenient Drop-Offs
When you choose chauffeured airport transfers, you’re not dealing with the hassle of parking garages, long shuttle rides, or walking long distances to your terminal. Your chauffeur will drop you off directly at your terminal and help you with your baggage, ensuring a smooth and efficient start to your airport experience.
3. A Luxury Experience with Premium Comfort
Carey doesn’t just offer transportation. We offer a thoughtful and luxurious experience. Our vehicles come equipped with premium interiors featuring leather seats, Wi-Fi access, and often include other amenities such as USB chargers, customizable temperature settings, heated seats, and more, ensuring that your ride is always comfortable. Whether you’re traveling alone or in a group (Carey’s fleet includes vehicles that can hold anywhere from 3-38 passengers), you can rely on our fleet to provide a superior and comfortable experience every time.
4. Industry-Leading Safety and Insurance Standards
Aggressive drivers, heavy traffic, and roads you don’t navigate often can make the commute to the airport stressful. At Caret, safety is our top priority. Each of our Carey chauffeurs has not only navigated the airports and surrounding highways countless times, but they’ve also passed an extensive defensive driving course, ensuring your safety while you travel in complete comfort and style. And unlike other providers, every trip is subject to our industry-leading insurance requirements, offering you maximum protection throughout your journey.
5. Efficiency and Productivity
Make the most of your travel time by catching up on work or making an important call. What might be impossible or difficult when driving to the airport, or getting a ride in a standard-sized vehicle is simple and easy in Carey’s premium luxury vehicles. Each one also comes equipped with Wi-Fi, allowing you to be as productive as you’d like while traveling to or from the airport.
6. Expert Chauffeurs with Local Knowledge
Our chauffeurs are not only trained to provide the highest level of professionalism and discretion, but they also have access to a network of local Carey drivers and dispatch teams. This network, as well as each driver’s years of experience navigating their local airport (at the time of this writing, the average tenure of a Carey driver is 8.5 years) allows our chauffeurs to respond swiftly to any sudden changes in traffic patterns, ensuring you’re always on the fastest route to your destination.
7. Personalized Amenities for a Seamless Experience
Imagine stepping into your vehicle after a red-eye flight to find a hot latte waiting for you. That’s the Carey experience. Our chauffeurs are happy to make your journey even more enjoyable by having personalized amenities ready, ensuring you arrive refreshed and relaxed.
8. A Practical Alternative to Airport Parking
Chauffeured services can offer competitive rates compared to other transport options, especially when you consider the cost of parking, gas, demand surges from ridesharing applications, etc. Our transparent pricing ensures you know the cost of getting to the airport upfront, helping you to avoid unwelcome surprises.
