Calculating the Cost of Your Airport Car Service
The cost of a car service to the airport is calculated based on three key factors: distance, vehicle type, and location surcharges. While no single government source publishes national private rates, industry-wide price models follow a predictable structure.
- Short to Medium Trip (Fixed Rate): The common industry starting price for an airport transfer is typically in the range of $60 to $100 for a standard sedan in a local service area.
- Vehicle Class: An SUV often costs 25-40% more than a sedan.
- Surcharges: Airport access fees (like the PANYNJ fee mentioned in Post 1) are a regulatory reality and are often passed on to the customer.
