Once a group goes past six people, most car services quote you two SUVs. Two cars means two chauffeurs, two arrival times, two lots of parking and a group that gets split up at the first red light. A Sprinter carries up to fourteen people in one vehicle, usually for less money, and everyone arrives together.
What it is used for
- Corporate teams moving between offices, client sites and dinners, or doing a roadshow day.
- Wedding parties — bridesmaids from the hotel to the ceremony, groomsmen to the photos, everyone to the reception. See weddings.
- Family groups arriving together at JFK or Newark.
- Nights out and birthdays, as a smaller and more practical alternative to a party bus.
- Prom groups who want to arrive together. See prom transportation.
Inside the Sprinter
A high-roof cabin you can stand up in, with individual forward-facing executive seats rather than bench rows. That matters more than it sounds when you are in a suit or a bridesmaid’s dress. One wide sliding door means the whole group is aboard in a minute. Bottled water and phone charging on board.
Honest about luggage: fourteen passengers each with a large suitcase is tight. With checked bags for everyone, twelve passengers is the comfortable number. For a group of fourteen flying in, tell us the bag count and we will tell you straight whether it fits.
Sprinter or something bigger?

|---|---|
| 7–14 | One Sprinter |

Sprinter questions
Is a Sprinter cheaper than two SUVs?
Usually, yes, and it is simpler: one vehicle, one chauffeur, one pick-up time. For groups of seven or more it is nearly always the better value.
Can the Sprinter make several stops?
Yes. Book it by the hour for days with several stops, or give us the full itinerary and we will quote it as one trip.
Can we play our own music?
Usually, yes. Tell us when you book and the chauffeur will help you connect before you set off.
Is alcohol allowed?
Passengers aged 21 and over may bring their own drinks on private hire where the law allows. We do not supply alcohol, and no alcohol is permitted when anyone under 21 is aboard, including on prom bookings.
