A warm welcome and trusted arrival for students.
Arriving in the United States after a 12 to 20-hour international flight can be daunting, especially when navigating heavy luggage, customs clearance, and unfamiliar transport systems alone. Princeton Car Services provides dependable, family-trusted private airport transfers for international undergraduate, graduate, and preparatory students.
Your chauffeur monitors your flight in real time, greets the student inside the terminal or directly at curbside, assists with all heavy travel trunks, and drives directly to the student’s specific residence hall or dorm building on campus. We provide parents with confirmation updates upon pickup and safe campus drop-off.
