NYC Car Service
Frequently Asked Questions

As a courtesy to our customers, we do attempt to contact all our customers when their drivers are on location. However, we are not always able to communicate passengers upon a driver’s arrival due to heavy call volume.

Unfortunately, drivers are unable to leave their vehicles unattended. The drivers will be pleased to assist with your luggage from the front of your building to the car.

Dial 7 requests that our customers cancel their reservations at least 2 hours in advance for Manhattan pick-ups and 3 hours in advance for pick-ups outside Manhattan. Cancellations made after the requested time-frames are subject to fees.

Dial 7 attempts, to the best of its ability, to accommodate last minute changes. If you would like to make a difference to your reservation, please notify us of your move at least 2 hours in advance for Manhattan pick-ups and at least 3 hours in advance for pick-ups outside of Manhattan.

After you retrieve your luggage, please call us with your confirmation number so that we can direct you to your car. The driver will pick you up within minutes at a designated curbside meeting point located right outside your baggage claim. You may reach us at (212) 777-7777 or (800) 777-8888.

Dial 7 can provide unscheduled airport pickups. Please call us once you have landed to check our availability. If you would like to ensure availability, we recommend that you book a car in advance. It takes approximately 5-8 minutes for the driver to pull up to your terminal.

NYC and TLC regulations regarding child safety seats: Drivers of yellow medallion taxicabs and for-hire vehicles and their passengers are exempt from laws regarding car seats and seatbelts. Keep in mind; the TLC encourages everyone in the car to buckle their seatbelt while riding in a cab. There are no Taxi and Limousine Commission rules regarding this, as it is a State exemption. Passengers with children are encouraged to bring their car seats, which the drivers must allow passengers to install.

NOTE - Children under the age of seven are permitted to sit on an adult's lap.

“ If you would like Dial 7 to provide child car seat, you may order an SUV equipped with a “standard” infant seat. We provide only one type of car seat which it may not be appropriate for all children. The seat is offered as a courtesy and is not required by law.”

Sedans and Luxury Sedans can accommodate up to four passengers with three standard size pieces of luggage.
