Arriving in New York: A Chauffeur's Guide to JFK, EWR & LGA

By JackPublished June 12, 2026Updated June 24, 2026

How to plan a New York arrival — which airport, meet & greet, and getting into Manhattan without the stress.

Choosing your airport

JFK and Newark (EWR) handle most international arrivals; LaGuardia (LGA) is closest to Midtown for domestic flights. Your chauffeur tracks the flight regardless of terminal or delays.

Meet & greet vs. curbside

For international arrivals we recommend in-terminal meet & greet — your chauffeur waits at arrivals with a name sign and assists with luggage. Curbside is quicker for domestic trips.

Getting into Manhattan

Traffic varies sharply by time of day; our chauffeurs route live around bridges and tunnels. Allow buffer time for peak-hour crossings from EWR and JFK.
