Plan your Penn Station reservation

The correct pickup depends on your railroad, train, station exit, and time of day. Amtrak’s street guidance separates the private-car and rideshare zone from the taxi stand. Share the exact railroad and train with your chauffeur, then follow the current station signs and your reservation’s pickup instructions.

Moynihan pickup

Use the official street locations in the table above and follow signs for your ride type. Moynihan is across Eighth Avenue from the Penn Station complex. Share your railroad, train, and expected exit; your chauffeur meets you at the designated street pickup. Call if your train or exit plan changes.

Identify the arriving train

Include the railroad, train number or identifier, scheduled arrival, passenger name, and working phone number. Amtrak, LIRR, and NJ Transit serve different parts of the complex, so name your expected exit to coordinate the street-level meeting point.

Allow time between the platform and pickup

Allow time to leave the platform, collect bags, regroup, and reach the agreed exit. Set pickup around the train schedule, expected exit, and walk to the street. For overnight arrivals, use the Penn Station complex across Eighth Avenue and include that location in your request; Moynihan’s hours are listed above.

Penn Station transformation

Amtrak’s announced Penn Station transformation is in design and public engagement from summer 2026 through 2027. Follow current signs and use your actual train, exit, and ride pickup details to plan the meeting point.

Before you confirm

Record the traveler, arranger, timing, luggage, vehicle, and pickup instructions in the reservation. Add the passenger’s reachable phone and the arranger’s contact, then check that both have the same meeting plan. Set the pickup around the actual train exit and luggage collection.

Passenger and arranger contacts

When booking for someone else, enter the passenger’s name and phone as well as your own contact details. Add the train and who will meet the chauffeur so the team can coordinate the pickup with the right traveler.

Timing and waiting

Every regular pickup has a 15-minute grace period, after which waiting time applies. Set the pickup around the traveler’s exit and baggage collection, along with the train’s scheduled arrival. Contact the team if the train or meeting plan changes.

Optional extras

Child seats cost $25 each in SUVs and Sprinters, never in sedans. For eligible airport arrivals, the $25 meet-and-greet includes an inside-terminal chauffeur, name sign, and luggage help; a dedicated greeter is $150. At Penn Station, meet at the street pickup.

For airport pickups without meet-and-greet, the chauffeur meets you at arrivals curbside, except at JFK Terminals 5 and 7, where car service passengers take the free AirTrain to the Howard Beach car service lot. At LaGuardia, car service pickups for Terminal B are on Level 2 of the Terminal B parking garage, and Terminal C pickups are in the arrivals inner lane. Terminal A has had no airline flights since May 2026. At Newark Terminal C, your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals curb or in the Terminal C Garage, Level 3.

Return trips

Enter a return leg with its own date, time, and pickup point. Name the exact hotel, office, airport, or station entrance, then review both legs’ vehicle and luggage details.

Match the vehicle to passengers and luggage.

True North VIP offers sedans, SUVs, and Sprinters for station transfers. Passenger capacities are maximums for the listed vehicle class; luggage fit depends on the size and number of bags. Enter the complete party and luggage count, then choose the class whose capacity works for the trip.

Vehicle classPassenger capacity
Executive SedanUp to 2
Luxury SedanUp to 3
Executive SUVUp to 6
Luxury SUVUp to 6
Executive SprinterUp to 13
Jet SprinterUp to 10

Sedan

Use the passenger capacities in the table as a starting point, then compare them with the complete luggage load. Enter every checked bag and carry-on so the chosen class fits the group and its belongings. If the party has several bags, include that detail when comparing a sedan with an SUV.

SUV

Choose an SUV when the group or luggage needs more room. Enter the complete bag count and any requested child seat when you arrange the ride, so the trip details reflect the passengers and belongings together.

Sprinter

Sprinter trips are quoted on request. Send the passenger count, bag count, travel date, and full itinerary so the quote reflects the actual group and route.

From itinerary to pickup details.

Enter the trip first, review the available vehicle and price, then use the reservation details to coordinate the street meeting point. A useful station booking names the railroad, train, actual exit, passenger contact, luggage, and destination for the full trip.

  1. Enter the itinerary. Add the pickup point, destination, travel date and time, railroad and train, passenger number, luggage, stops, and requested extras.
  2. Review the trip. Check the vehicle class, all-in price, route, pickup instructions, and any requested return leg.
  3. Coordinate the meeting. Share the actual exit and passenger contact details, then contact the team if the train or pickup plan changes.

There is a 60-minute wait time after a domestic landing and a 90-minute wait time after an international landing; station pickups use the railroad and train details in your reservation.

For a station-to-airport trip, compare the Moynihan estimate with your flight time and airline check-in guidance.

With several bags, a car service offers a direct ride from the station pickup to your destination. The subway may suit light luggage and a destination near a stop; consider transfers, bags, and traffic when choosing.

After Penn Station, your next stop may be an airport, Midtown hotel, Manhattan address, or destination beyond the city. Choose the matching service page, then enter the full address or terminal in your ride request. This keeps the itinerary tied to the traveler’s next leg and pickup details.
