Door to Door From Boston to New York
Blue Nile Livery is a Boston chauffeured car service, operating since 2013, and New York City is one of the longer trips we drive. A professional chauffeur picks you up at your home, office, hotel or at Logan, loads your bags and takes you straight to your address in Manhattan, Brooklyn or a New York airport. The drive covers about 215 miles and usually takes around four hours, so you can work, take calls or rest in the back the whole way. A sedan for the full trip costs about $935 to $985, with gratuity already in the price.

Pickups Across Boston and Drop Offs Across New York
Most trips start at a home or office in Boston, Cambridge or the suburbs, or straight from a flight at Logan, where your chauffeur tracks the landing and is there when you come out. In New York we drop off at Midtown hotels, offices in the Financial District, apartments in Brooklyn and at all three airports.
Catching a flight out of New York? These are the one way totals from downtown Boston.
| From downtown Boston to | Executive Sedan | SUV | Mercedes Sprinter |
|---|---|---|---|
| JFK Airport | About $930 to $955 | About $1,175 to $1,195 | About $1,930 to $1,950 |
| LaGuardia Airport | About $890 to $910 | About $1,120 to $1,140 | About $1,845 to $1,865 |

The Drive From Boston to New York
Your chauffeur takes the Mass Pike and I-84 through Hartford, or I-95 along the Connecticut coast, depending on traffic when you leave. Without heavy traffic the trip takes about four hours. A Friday afternoon or a holiday weekend can add an hour or more, so we plan your pickup around the time you need to be in New York.
If you want to stop for lunch, collect someone in Providence or Connecticut, or drop a bag at a hotel on the way, tell us when you book and we add it to the route. Bottled water and phone chargers are in the car, and plenty of our clients spend the drive on calls or catching up on email.
New York to Boston Car Service
The same service runs the other way. We pick up at your Manhattan hotel or office, at Penn Station, or at JFK, LaGuardia or Newark after a flight, and bring you to any address in Boston or the towns around it. If you are flying into one of the New York airports, your chauffeur watches the flight and is waiting when you walk out, even when it lands late.
A Manhattan pickup costs about the same as the trip south, and a sedan from JFK to downtown Boston runs about $930 to $955. Plenty of clients book both directions together, going down on a Monday morning and coming back on Thursday evening.
Car, Train or Flight to New York?
Acela trains reach Penn Station in about three and a half hours, and the flight to LaGuardia is short once you are in the air. Both still mean getting to the station or airport, waiting, and finding a ride at the other end with your luggage. A private car leaves from your door and stops at your destination, and nobody has to drag bags through a terminal or a train station.
| Option | Door to door | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Private car | About 4 hours | Leaves when you are ready, no transfers, luggage stays with you |
| Acela train | About 3.5 hours station to station, plus getting to and from the stations | Fixed departure times, a ride still needed at each end |
| Flight to LaGuardia | Short flight, plus airport time at both ends | Security, boarding and baggage claim add to the trip |
| Driving yourself | About 4 hours | Tolls, traffic and Manhattan parking are yours to handle |
