Stop Prices
Stops: The When and Why of Stops
Not all stops are defined or priced the same.
Most are billable. Some are not.
- Any deviation from the direct route to some intermediate point that results in increased distance traveled and/or additional time required to complete the trip constitutes a billable stop.
- Courtesy Stops are not billable.
A Courtesy stop is defined as:
- A quick personal stop (normally 5 minutes or less) directly en route to buy coffee or newspaper, etc.
- Elite drivers provide courtesy stops to our customers at no charge.
No Free Jump:
- A passenger getting out of the car at any place other than the final destination may trigger a stop charge.
Stop Pricing Guidelines:
- Except for Elite, the NYC Black Car Industry generally overstates stop pricing by use of full zone-to-zone calculations.
- Since 1990 Elite has employed our own proprietary algorithm using a vector matrix developed in house to calculate prices based on actual distance traveled.
- Both standard Elite rates and stop pricing is available online at https://EliteNY.com.
- A stop en route is priced differently than a stop not in en route. Stops not en route incur price adjustments for time and distance.
- In Manhattan: Stops begin at $15.
- In the Outer Boroughs: Stops begin at $25.
- Out of town stops begin at $30 for stops in the same town.
- Out of town stops en route are 50% of the rates to the town but no more than $50 per stop.
- Stop for SUV service is 1.25 times Sedan’s stop price.
