Meet-and-greet inside baggage claim, planeside FBO staging, car seats, and additional stops are available as add-ons — see the prices below.
Hourly car service rates.
When your day has three or more stops, hourly service is almost always the better value — and the car stays with you between them.
| Vehicle | Hourly rate | Minimum | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Executive sedan Mercedes-Maybach · BMW 760i · 1–2 guests | $125 per hour | 3 hours | VIP arrivals, executive days |
| Luxury SUV Cadillac Escalade (up to 6) · Escalade IQ (up to 3) | $169 per hour | 3 hours | Tours, families, evenings out |
| Jet Sprinter Mercedes-Benz Sprinter · executive interior · up to 10 guests | $220 per hour | 4 hours | Executive groups, roadshows |
| 14-passenger Sprinter Mercedes-Benz Sprinter · high capacity · up to 14 guests | $195 per hour | 4 hours | Groups, weddings, conventions |
Hourly service is billed from pickup to final drop-off. Common bookings include Garden District tours(2–3 hours), evenings in the French Quarter(4–5 hours), and full corporate days(8+ hours). Multi-day and standing corporate rates available.

Pricing FAQs.
How much is a car service from MSY to the French Quarter?
+
Flat rates from Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) to the French Quarter or Central Business District are $145 for an executive sedan, $185 for a luxury SUV, and $295 for a Sprinter van for groups of seven or more. Other zones are quoted and confirmed before you book.
Is your pricing flat rate or metered?
+
All point-to-point transfers are flat rate. There is no meter and no surge pricing at any time of year, including Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, Sugar Bowl weekend, and major convention weeks. The quote you confirm is the rate you pay.
Do you charge extra if my flight is delayed?
+
No. Every airport reservation includes live flight tracking, and standard delay adjustments carry no additional charge. Your pickup time simply moves with your flight. Airport bookings also include 30 minutes of complimentary wait time from the time you land.
Can I cancel a reservation?
+
Yes. Cancellations made more than 24 hours before the scheduled pickup are free. Cancellations inside 24 hours and no-show reservations are non-refundable. Corporate accounts may have their own terms.
When is hourly service cheaper than point-to-point?
+
Generally once your itinerary reaches three or more stops, or any time you want the vehicle held between destinations rather than re-booked. A Garden District tour, an evening across multiple French Quarter venues, or a full corporate day downtown are all better served — and usually better priced — hourly.
Do you offer corporate or account rates?
+
Yes. Corporate accounts include negotiated rates, centralized billing, a dedicated account manager, documented executive preferences, and standing gratuity terms. Volume and standing-schedule pricing is available for firms with regular airport or downtown travel.
How do I get an exact quote?
+
Submit a reservation request with your pickup point, destination, date, time, and vehicle preference, or call our concierge line directly. You will receive a firm, all-in quote before any commitment — no deposit required to see a price.
