One Miami account contact. One consolidated invoice. Same standard in 600 cities.

What is MIA car service and how does it work?

MIA car service is chauffeured ground transportation to or from Miami International (MIA), Opa-locka Executive (OPF), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), and Miami's executive fields. LAAC dispatches a Business Sedan, First-Class Sedan, Business SUV, or Executive Sprinter based on party size and luggage. The chauffeur tracks the flight, meets inside baggage claim with a name sign at MIA, or at the FBO lobby / aircraft ramp at OPF — with 60 minutes of complimentary wait time on arrivals (90 on international).

How much does MIA airport car service cost?

MIA transfers are priced per-transfer with an all-in quote before booking — chauffeur, fuel, tolls, parking, and a printed meet-and-greet sign included. A Business Sedan transfer between MIA and Brickell, Downtown Miami, or Downtown Miami typically starts in the low three figures; First-Class Sedan, SUV, and Sprinter scale from there. No surge, no holiday multipliers, no MIA airport-access surcharge on the invoice.

Do you meet passengers inside baggage claim at MIA?

Yes. Meet-and-greet at MIA baggage claim is included on every arrival — the chauffeur parks, walks into the terminal with a printed name sign, assists with luggage, and escorts to the vehicle. 60 minutes of complimentary wait time from wheels-down (90 on international arrivals through MIA International Concourse J). MIA curbside curbside express pickup is also available on request.

Do you serve Opa-locka and Miami's private aviation airports?

Yes. LAAC handles ramp and FBO-lobby pickup at Opa-locka Executive (OPF), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Palm Beach (PBI), and Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) — coordinated with the flight crew and FBO. First-Class Sedan and CEO Jet Sprinter are the standard aircraft-side vehicles; Business SUV and Executive Sprinter dispatched for families and full-manifest arrivals. PortMiami Cruise Terminal at MIA is a full-service program with its own protocol.

Questions we get from executives, travel managers, and families.

How far in advance should I book a MIA airport transfer?

24 hours is comfortable for routine transfers; 2–4 hours works for most arrivals with fleet availability. For peak morning departures (5:00–7:00 AM), Art Basel weekends, Ultra Music Festival, Super Bowl / championship weekends at Hard Rock Stadium, or executive group arrivals with multiple vehicles, book 3–7 days ahead to lock the chauffeur and Sprinter.

What if my flight is delayed or arrives early at MIA?

LAAC tracks every inbound flight from wheels-up at the origin airport. Chauffeur arrival is timed to your actual landing, not the scheduled time, and the 60-minute complimentary wait window starts from wheels-down at MIA (90 minutes on international). No surprise wait fees for flight delays.

Do you handle same-day and last-minute MIA bookings?

Yes, subject to fleet availability. Message the Miami desk via Customer Care chat — same-day sedan and SUV requests are usually confirmed within 15 minutes. Sprinter, coach, and multi-vehicle requests need more lead time, especially during Art Basel week and production wraps.

Can you use PortMiami Cruise Terminal at MIA?

Yes. LAAC coordinates chauffeur pickup on the tarmac side of PortMiami Cruise Terminal — a full-service program that routes VIP arrivals off the main terminals entirely. Executive Sprinter is the default vehicle for wardrobe, camera rigs, glam, and security in one cabin; First-Class SUV for principals traveling light. PortMiami membership or day-pass required and billed separately by PS.

Can you coordinate MIA ↔ OPF cross-airport transfers?

Yes. For clients arriving commercial at MIA and repositioning to their jet at Opa-locka (or vice versa), LAAC dispatches a First-Class Sedan or Business SUV coordinated with both flight crews so the chauffeur is on-site at both ends — including tail-number-briefed pickup at Signature MIA, Signature (OPF), Jet Aviation OPF, or Fontainebleau Aviation.

Are LAAC chauffeurs W2 employees, background-screened, and insured?

Yes. LAAC chauffeurs are W2 employees — background-screened, drug-tested, MVR-verified, and covered by commercial livery insurance. Coach chauffeurs are CDL-licensed and DOT hours-of-service compliant. No 1099 contractors, no gig platform, no surge drivers.

Do you provide receipts and corporate billing for MIA transfers?

Every transfer receives a signed digital receipt with chauffeur name, vehicle number, pickup and drop times, and route. Approved corporate accounts receive one consolidated monthly invoice with GL coding and cost-center allocation — net-30 terms on approval. No per-transfer credit-card churn.

Can you handle car seats and family transfers from MIA?

Yes. Rear-facing infant, forward-facing toddler, and booster seats are available on request with 24-hour notice. Business SUV and Executive Sprinter are the standard family vehicles at MIA — the Sprinter fits a family plus stroller, car seats, and full-week luggage in one cabin, direct to Bal Harbour, Star Island, or Coconut Grove.

Do you cover MIA curbside pickup vs meet-and-greet?

Both. Curbside express: the chauffeur stages in the MIA cell-phone lot with your flight up on the tracker, and pulls to the arrivals level (or MIA curbside if required) the moment you call from baggage claim. Meet-and-greet with a printed name sign inside baggage claim is the default — preferred by families, principals, and international arrivals.

Do you cover airport transfers nationwide, not just MIA?

Yes. LAAC covers airport transfers at every major U.S. and international airport under the same standard — JFK, LGA, EWR, ATL, MIA, ORD, DFW, LHR, CDG, DXB, and 590+ others. One Miami account contact, one consolidated invoice, worldwide.

What's the difference between MIA car service and a rideshare?

MIA car service is a pre-booked, chauffeured transfer in a commercial-livery-insured vehicle with a W2 chauffeur, flight tracking, meet-and-greet inside baggage claim, and a fixed all-in price. Rideshare is a variable-price hail from an unvetted driver at the MIA curbside rideshare pickup zone with no meet-and-greet, no flight tracking, and surge pricing at peak times.
