Why RideSoHo for the US Open

Chauffeurs

TLC-licensed professionals

Every RideSoHo chauffeur holds an NYC TLC license, earned through fingerprinting, a background check, drug screening and a driving record review. They wear a suit and tie.
Base

TLC Base B03644

Our licensed base is at 230 Park Avenue, and dispatch answers around the clock, including the late finishes.
Vehicles

Comfort for the crowd

Escalades, Suburbans, S-Class sedans and Sprinters with chargers and water. A Sprinter keeps a family, a club or a client group together.
Timing

Planned around the sessions

Tell us the session start and the expected finish, and the car is positioned to meet the traffic, not fight it.
Flights

Followed after takeoff

Your flight is monitored and the pickup moves with it. Your wait is included for 45 minutes after a domestic arrival and an hour after an international one.
Arrivals

Meet & Greet

At $25 the chauffeur waits in arrivals with a name sign and carries the bags.

Tournament Day Tips

A few habits that make match day smoother.
Planning

Book early

Reserve ahead for the busiest sessions so the right vehicle is held for your group.
Arrival

Allow time at the gates

Security lines and crowds mean the ride to the stadium is only part of the journey.
Drop-off

Follow traffic officers

The chauffeur uses the areas allowed on the day and will text the exact pickup spot.
Updates

Message from your seat

If a match runs long, a quick note to dispatch lets the chauffeur adjust the return time.

Rain delay or a long final set?

Call dispatch at (212) 875-5212 and the chauffeur will adjust to the new schedule. Tennis never keeps a clock, so a person is always on the line to help.

The chauffeur arrives 15 minutes early and messages when outside.
