The reservations desk is in Toronto, and some of the most common long runs in the network cross the border. Toronto to Buffalo via the Niagara bridges usually takes about 90 minutes to two and a half hours, depending on the crossing queue; Vancouver to Seattle usually takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours; and Windsor sits directly across the river from Detroit. Every passenger needs a valid passport or an accepted travel document, and visitors may need a US ESTA or a Canadian eTA for air arrivals. Not every operator is permitted to carry passengers across the border, so say so when you book. The rules are published by the Canada Border Services Agency and US Customs and Border Protection.

Seasons that change the drive

Winter snow from December to March adds time on every run in Canada, the Mountain West and the Northeast, and ski towns such as Aspen, Vail and Whistler peak in the same months. The Atlantic hurricane season, from June to November, affects Florida and the Gulf coast. CES in Las Vegas is usually in January, the Toronto International Film Festival and the UN General Assembly in New York usually in September.

Which vehicle suits North America

The Standard Black SUV (Suburban class) is a common corporate choice in US cities, and in winter its ground clearance and luggage bay make it the sensible choice for ski towns and snowy airport runs. Sedans suit a single traveller in New York or Chicago, and a Sprinter Van moves a team from Toronto Pearson to a downtown hotel in one trip. See the United States and Canada country pages.

Why BlaakLane.com

What separates a chauffeur from a ride with a stranger

The standard every chauffeur and affiliate works to is on the safety & standards page; how fares are built is on the rates page; billing and duty of care are on corporate accounts.

A fixed fare, shown first

The engine prices the exact address, date and vehicle before you confirm. No surge after a delayed flight, no meter in traffic, nothing added at the curb.

Your flight, tracked

Dispatch follows the flight from take-off; the chauffeur is timed to the real landing. Sixty minutes free on international arrivals, thirty on domestic flights.

Professional chauffeurs

Licensed for passengers for hire in their own jurisdiction, background-checked, insured for commercial carriage, in a dark suit, in an unbranded late-model car.

One account, 500 cities

Book New York, London, Dubai and Singapore on the same account, with one invoice, one set of passenger profiles and one travel-policy setting.

Built for corporate and crew

Duty-of-care reporting, cost-centre billing, crew-change and airline-crew manifests, roadshow schedules and multi-vehicle programmes run by a coordinator.

Discreet by default

Confidentiality agreements on request, no names on signs unless you ask, privacy-screened vehicles and security-trained drivers where the brief calls for it.
