Rides for West Point Visitors and Families, 2026–2027

Coming to West Point for a milestone weekend? Royal Ride Executive Transportation provides chauffeured airport and local rides for visiting families, so you can spend the visit with your cadet instead of behind the wheel.

Airport rides

Flying in? Your chauffeur meets you at New York Stewart (SWF), JFK or Newark (EWR) and brings you to your hotel in the area. We track your flight on airport pickups, so a delay doesn't leave you waiting for a ride.

Local rides during your visit

Book point-to-point rides or an hourly car for the days in between: hotel to dinner, hotel to the visitor center, or a multi-stop day with family. Sedans, SUVs and Sprinters, with live 24/7 in-house dispatch.

Base access is arranged by your family

Everyone entering West Point needs a valid photo ID, and major events such as Graduation require passes for guests and vehicles. Please arrange your passes and event tickets through your cadet and the academy before you travel. Royal Ride cannot obtain passes or tickets for you. On event days, your chauffeur follows the gate, parking and drop-off instructions West Point has in place, so plan an early start on graduation day.

Royal Ride Executive Transportation is an independent chauffeur service. We are not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by the U.S. Military Academy at West Point or the U.S. Army.
