In brief

  • True North VIP is the best point-to-point car service in NYC for 2026: one all-in fare per trip, with live quotes such as $153.42 from LaGuardia and $210.95 to Greenwich in an Executive Sedan. Black Car NYC and Artisan Limo follow.

Point-to-point service is a single one-way trip at a fixed price: home to the airport, hotel to a meeting, Manhattan to Greenwich. What matters is whether the fare is final and whether the company goes where you are going.

How we ranked

We compared each company only on what it publishes on its own website, checked November 8, 2026. Where a company does not publish something, we say so rather than guess. The criteria, in order of weight:

  1. Price transparency — whether the price you see includes taxes, tolls and fees.
  2. Airport waiting included — how long the car waits after landing before extra charges.
  3. Coverage — the boroughs, suburbs, states and airports served.
  4. Published rates and minimums — whether hourly rates and example fares are public.
  5. Fleet range and track record — vehicle choice, licensing and years in business.

The bottom line

  • For a final, all-in one-way fare: True North VIP.
  • For easy cancellation: Black Car NYC.
  • For the lowest base fare: Carmel or Dial 7, after tolls and fees.
