Staten Island Airport Transfers — Written Quotes

Every Staten Island airport transfer is quoted in writing for the exact pickup, destination, vehicle and pickup time. Once accepted, that total does not surge. The written quote states whether tolls (Verrazzano, Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel, GWB, Triborough), waiting, parking, taxes and gratuity are already included. Hourly estimates ($120 sedan / $150 SUV / $230 S-Class / $240 Sprinter) already include customary gratuity — do not add 18–20% on those hourly figures.

What Makes Staten Island Black Car Service Different

Three operational standards separate our Staten Island service from generic ride-hail platforms and competing black car bases:

• Pre-trip vehicle inspection — Every vehicle is inspected before each shift: tire pressure, fluid levels, interior cleanliness, water and amenity stocking, and chauffeur attire compliance. TLC biannual inspection certification is verified for every vehicle in the fleet.
• Trained chauffeurs, not gig drivers — Our chauffeurs are W-2 employees (not 1099 contractors), background-checked annually, drug-tested quarterly, and trained in defensive driving, executive protocol, and discretion. Average chauffeur tenure: 4.7 years.
