From Amsterdam to New York: The FFGR Guide to American Luxury

FFGR Nederland coordinates private ground transport, concierge, and curated experiences across the United States for its European clientele. Here is the complete New York programme — from JFK to the Hamptons.

The FFGR Americas Desk: one contact, both continents

When an FFGR Nederland client travels to New York, their Amsterdam reservations manager does not pass the file to a third party and wish them well. The Amsterdam desk briefs the US team directly, communicates every preference on file, and remains the single point of contact throughout the American journey. The driver who meets you at JFK Teterboro has read the same briefing document your Amsterdam chauffeur uses every week.

New York: ground transport

FFGR's New York programme operates Cadillac Escalade ESV and Lincoln Navigator L for standard executive transfers, with Rolls-Royce Ghost available on request for flagship engagements. JFK to Midtown Manhattan: 45–60 minutes depending on traffic; our US desk monitors the Van Wyck in real time and adjusts departure timing accordingly. For Teterboro arrivals (private aviation), the transfer time to Park Avenue is typically 25 minutes.

Manhattan: the FFGR programme

A typical FFGR Manhattan day: arrival at Teterboro, transfer to the Pierre or the Mark on the Upper East Side. Morning: a private gallery walk in Chelsea with an art adviser from our New York cultural network. Midday: lunch at Eleven Madison Park or Le Bernardin, reserved through our concierge team. Afternoon: Fifth Avenue personal shopping with priority access at Bergdorf Goodman's private suite and appointment at Patek Philippe on East 57th. Evening: Lincoln Center box, transfer by Escalade, return to hotel.

The Hamptons — weekend extension

For clients extending to the Hamptons, FFGR coordinates the transfer by helicopter (30 minutes from Manhattan) or private chauffeur (2h15 via the Midtown Tunnel, avoiding the South Fork congestion with early-morning departure). Properties in East Hampton, Sagaponack, and Water Mill are sourced through our villa network. Private yacht day charters from Sag Harbor marina are arranged on request.
