Nobody wants to land at CAK, grab their bag, and then stand around a parking lot squinting for their ride. Empire Limos International skips that part entirely. Your flight gets watched from takeoff, so whether you land early or an hour late, your chauffeur is already parked and waiting when you walk out. Same setup for a 5 a.m. departure as it is for picking up a client who just got off a nine-hour flight.
Done properly, Meet & Greet looks like this: your chauffeur is standing inside the terminal holding a sign with your name on it before your plane has even taxied to the gate. You come down the escalator, they spot you, and that's the whole interaction. Nobody's circling the pickup lane in an SUV while you're on the phone trying to figure out where they went.
It doesn't matter what the trip is for. Someone catching a 6 a.m. connection gets the exact same driver quality as a bride being picked up on her wedding day, or a CEO heading across town for a dinner meeting. That's usually the reason people come back for their next group booking instead of shopping around for something cheaper.
Book Your RideGetting this right comes down to nailing four things early on: timing, format, vehicle, and exactly where your chauffeur should be standing.
We need the date, local time, pickup point, destination, and how many people are riding. Got a flight number, an FBO, or a meeting tied to the schedule? Mention it — that's usually the detail that changes how the whole trip gets planned.
Point-to-point, hourly, an airport run, private aviation, something long-distance, or a full group booking — sorting out which one applies changes both the quote and the vehicle we'd suggest for it.
This mostly comes down to headcount and how much gear is coming along. Two people with roller bags is an easy sedan trip. A group with hockey equipment or golf clubs is not.
We need a real address, not a general neighborhood, along with a phone number for whoever's actually riding. If there's a specific door, lobby, or terminal to find, say so ahead of time.
Your chauffeur arrives on time, sticks to whatever route was mapped out in advance, and gets everyone to where they're supposed to be — nothing improvised along the way.
Not sure which one applies to your trip? Look at your schedule, your number of stops, and your passenger count, then pick from what's below.
Your standard airport run, office transfer, or venue drop-off. You know exactly where you're starting and exactly where you're ending — nothing scheduled in between.
A better fit when your driver needs to stick around — back-to-back meetings, a dinner reservation afterward, then a final stop at the hotel before the night ends.
Built for when everyone needs to move together — one pickup spot, one drop-off, a single vehicle instead of five separate cars trying to arrive at the same time.
Have your flight or tail number ready, along with a contact number and a rough idea of how much luggage is coming off the plane with you.
Here's what we actually book on a regular basis, from a quick run to CAK to a trip that crosses state lines.
Your flight status gets tracked automatically, so if it's running late, your chauffeur already knows before the gate agent announces it. Vehicle, headcount, and luggage all get sorted before you land.
Explore airport transportation →For executives and teams who can't afford to walk into a room rattled or late. Airport pickups, office transfers, cross-town meetings — nothing about the routine changes.
Plan corporate transportation →Built around your actual ceremony and reception timeline instead of some generic schedule. The wedding party moves together instead of everyone driving separately and hoping they show up on time.
Review wedding transportation →Concerts, galas, whatever's on the calendar this weekend — you skip the parking garage entirely and the fight for a rideshare once everyone else is trying to leave at once.
See event transportation →Your car and driver stay put between stops instead of leaving. A meeting, then lunch, then a shopping run — one booking covers the whole afternoon instead of three separate ones.
View hourly service →A straight shot between cities with the same car and the same driver for the entire drive — nobody's swapping vehicles or handing you off partway there.
Explore city-to-city transfers →Real questions people ask before they book, answered without the runaround.
Date, time, pickup spot, drop-off spot, and how many people are coming along. If a flight or a meeting is tied to any of that, mention it up front — it's usually what changes the timing.
If you've got one stop each direction, go with point-to-point. If the vehicle has to sit and wait while you're in and out of buildings, hourly usually ends up cheaper in the long run.
Passenger count and luggage are really the two things that matter here. A sedan handles two people with carry-ons just fine. Beyond that, you're likely looking at an SUV or a Sprinter.
Absolutely. Just list their phone number and pickup details on the reservation instead of your own, since the chauffeur will need to reach them, not you.
That's the bulk of what we handle at CAK. We keep an eye on your flight from our end, so schedule changes get factored in automatically, without you having to call anyone.
Yes, and the right pick usually depends on group size plus luggage — a group dressed for a wedding needs something different than a dozen people hauling ski bags.
As long as we know about them in advance. Adding one at the last minute isn't impossible, but it's not something we can promise on the spot.
The moment you've got a date locked in. You don't need to book months ahead, but weekends like graduation or wedding season fill up the good vehicles fast.
Around the clock — 4 a.m. departures, midnight landings, all of it gets covered the same way.
Call or message us the moment something shifts, and we'll update the reservation on our end so your chauffeur isn't working off the wrong plan.
Fill out the contact form with your trip details, or skip that entirely and just call us directly.
