How the pricing works
- Point-to-point is one flat fare for a single A-to-B run — best for a straightforward one-way.
- Hourly is as-directed with a three-hour minimum, billed at a flat hourly rate — best for a night out, a roadshow, or any trip with waiting between stops.
- Airport fares are flat and flight-tracked, with wait time and tolls included.
- No surge, ever — the number you are quoted is the number you pay, whatever the weather or the hour.

The comparison
Is a Manhattan chauffeur cheaper than Uber?
On a quiet off-peak trip a chauffeur and Uber Black run close, but a booked flat rate never moves while rideshare multiplies. Add flight tracking, a held pickup, and meet-and-greet, and a chauffeur wins the nights that matter.
| Feature | Manhattan Chauffeur Co. | Uber Black | Yellow Cab |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Flat, all-in | Dynamic | Metered |
| Surge risk | None | High | Low |
| Flight tracking | Yes | No | No |
| Meet & greet | Yes | No | No |
| Held pickup / wait | Yes | No | No |
| Driver | Professional chauffeur | Gig driver | Licensed hack |
Surge in Manhattan: a flat rate holds while Uber Black typically runs ~1.6–2.2× in weekday rush, ~2–3× in rain or snow, ~1× on a quiet Sunday, and ~2.5–3.5× at a Friday/Saturday Broadway curtain-out. Our rate is the rate.
