Several private car services operate at Hartsfield-Jackson, offering pre-booked transportation with professional chauffeurs and meet-and-greet service at baggage claim. Major operators include Carey Atlanta, Atlanta Limousine Service, and Best Car Atlanta, plus the major rideshare platforms' premium tiers (Uber Premier/Black, Lyft Lux Black).
Booking is required in advance — typically 4–24 hours before pickup. Provide your flight number; the car service will track your flight and adjust pickup time for delays. Most services include 30–60 minutes of complimentary wait time after scheduled landing.
Pricing depends on vehicle class and destination. A standard black sedan to downtown Atlanta runs $70–110; an SUV $100–150; a stretch limousine $200+. Some services charge by the hour ($75–150/hour) for in-city use after the initial transfer.
Vehicles are typically late-model Lincoln Continentals, Cadillac Escalades, or Mercedes S-Class sedans, with full leather, climate control, and bottled water. Chauffeurs are professionally trained and dressed.
Tipping is customary — typically 18–20% of the fare unless service charge is already included. Most services accept credit card pre-payment or invoice billing for corporate accounts.
