One ride, one quote, one confirmed pickup
Point-to-point service is a single chauffeured ride from one address to another: a hotel to an office, a home to a restaurant, a downtown meeting to a Beachwood appointment, or Cleveland to Akron. It is quoted for the exact route and the vehicle class, and it is not billed as a three-hour hourly charter. Airport runs are a special case of the same idea and have their own page, airport transfers.
A New York dispatch desk arranges the reservation and a local chauffeur in Cleveland completes the ride. The confirmation lists the pickup time, the vehicle class, the pickup address and a contact number.
How the price is set
One-way rides are itinerary quotes. The distance, the vehicle class and the date all affect the figure, and the quote includes gratuity; applicable fees are the ones listed on it. No point-to-point quote is lower than $130 for a Business Sedan or $160 for a First Class SUV, so very short hops within the same neighborhood are usually better walked. For longer one-way trips, the quote reflects the route. If you will need several rides close together, ask for hourly charter instead: $120 for a sedan and $150 for an SUV, per hour, with a three-hour minimum.

What to include when you book
The pickup address with a building name or door, the destination, the date and time, the number of passengers and bags, and any stop along the way. A standard sedan holds about two large suitcases and two carry-on bags; an SUV holds more. Ask for a child or booster seat when you book, with the child’s age and weight. Service animals are welcome at no extra charge.
Pickup and timing
The chauffeur confirms arrival and the meeting point before you walk out. Downtown and in busy districts, that may be a hotel entrance or a nearby side street rather than the exact front door, especially on game or show nights. Drive times depend on the addresses and traffic; rush hour on the Inner Belt, construction on I-90 or I-271, and lake-effect snow from November through March can all add time. Cancellation, change and wait terms for your ride are written on the quote or confirmation.
