Business trips through Philadelphia International go wrong in predictable places: the 5 a.m. departure, the delayed return, the meeting that runs over, the client nobody met. This checklist covers each one.
Who should make the booking?
Whoever owns the schedule. An assistant or travel coordinator can book under their own name and add the traveller’s name and phone number, and the chauffeur meets the traveller by name.
How do you protect the return trip?
Book the return with the outbound trip and include the flight number. The car follows the landing time, the chauffeur meets the traveller inside the terminal, and airport waiting time is included, so a late flight does not become a second problem.
What about a day of meetings?
For three or more stops, book the car by the hour. The chauffeur waits outside each meeting, which matters in Center City, where parking is scarce and the next meeting is often 15 minutes away.
When is the train the better choice?
For a solo day trip to New York with a laptop bag, Amtrak from 30th Street Station is hard to beat. A car makes sense with luggage, several stops, a group, or an address far from Penn Station; see Philadelphia to New York car service.
The checklist
- Book 24 to 48 hours ahead; earlier for convention weeks.
- Add the traveller’s name and mobile number.
- Include both flight numbers.
- Book meeting days by the hour.
- Choose the luxury sedan for client-facing trips.
- Keep 215 939 3111 handy for same-day changes.
