The moment a guest steps into a vehicle outside 10 Avery Street — overlooking Boston Common, steps from the theatre district — they are still in your care. Met Global Mobility exists to make sure they feel it.
A guest's experience of The Ritz-Carlton does not end at the Avery Street door. It ends when they arrive — at Logan, at a dinner reservation, at their next meeting. Everything that happens in between either upholds your standard or quietly erodes it. This proposal is about who is responsible for that distance, and whether the answer meets the expectation your guests carry with them from Singapore, from Paris, from London.
The Ritz-Carlton, Boston Common is where the brand began in America — 1927, the first property in the United States. Guests who walk through your doors know the standard intimately. The transportation waiting outside is part of that same promise.
Luxury ground transportation is not a logistics category. It is a hospitality discipline — one that begins the moment a guest steps outside your door and does not end until they are safely where they need to be. Met Global Mobility was built on exactly this understanding. The operating principles that have guided us for 34 years align closely with the values your team lives by every day — not because we designed them that way, but because both were built around the same thing: a guest who expects everything to be right, and notices immediately when it isn't.
The first Ritz-Carlton in America opened in Boston in 1927. The standard has never moved. Neither has ours.
Met Global Mobility has operated in Boston for 34 years as a privately owned ground transportation company with a singular focus: every vehicle owned, every chauffeur a direct employee, every trip managed through our own operations. We are not a broker. We do not use affiliates. We do not farm overflow to a network. When you book with us, the vehicle, the chauffeur, and the accountability all belong to the same organisation.
Most operators working at the hotel level today serve the corporate travel market well. Sedans, SUVs, the occasional stretch limousine — the logistics of moving executives from A to B. That is a different discipline from what The Ritz-Carlton, Boston requires. Your guests arrive having experienced the Four Seasons Bangkok, the Aman Venice, The Connaught. They have been met at Farnborough and Teterboro by chauffeurs who know their preferences without being told. They have ridden in vehicles that feel like an extension of where they just were. The transportation waiting at your door should belong to that same world.
Met Global Mobility bridges that gap. Our fleet includes the Rolls-Royce Ghost, the Mercedes S-Class 580 Maybach, the Range Rover, and a full range of executive and group vehicles — maintained to manufacturer standards and presented without compromise. Our chauffeurs are Forbes-level trained, NDA-bound, and briefed on each guest before the first pickup. And our technology is built around your concierge team: real-time availability, seamless booking, live flight tracking, and a dedicated portal that makes requesting a vehicle as frictionless as a room service order.
Our fleet, our operations centre, and the team behind 34 years of serving Boston's most discerning guests.
The C-suite, board members, and principals who stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Boston use Met Global Mobility when they're in the city — through their corporate travel desks, not through your concierge. This partnership closes that gap.
Corporate accounts whose executives we currently serve in Greater Boston. Hotel references available on request — including from properties with whom we operate in an equivalent capacity.
No other transportation provider in Boston offers a dedicated house car of any kind — let alone a Rolls-Royce. Stationed exclusively for Ritz-Carlton guest transfers within a 2-mile radius.
First 30 days at zero cost, zero obligation. No contract required to begin. After the pilot, the house car remains at highly preferential terms.
A Ritz-Carlton guest who returns to Boston should be collected by the same chauffeur who drove them last time. Preferences — temperature, music, communication style, route — are logged in the guest profile and briefed before every pickup. The experience picks up where it left off, with no re-introduction required.
In the event the designated chauffeur is unavailable, a named backup — pre-briefed on the full guest profile — is assigned. Your concierge team is notified proactively. No guest is handed to an unknown driver without prior communication to your desk.
Every airport transfer is monitored in real time. When a flight lands early, diverts, or is delayed, pickup timing adjusts automatically — without a call to your concierge desk, and without the guest needing to do anything. The guest did not ask us to track their flight. We did it because that is what the standard requires.
Every chauffeur assigned to The Ritz-Carlton is bound by a binding non-circumvention and non-solicitation agreement — contractual, and in force for the duration of the partnership and beyond its end. No business cards in the vehicle. No follow-up messages. No exceptions.
Every vehicle is staged and ready 15 minutes before the scheduled pickup. If we miss that standard on a confirmed booking, the base fare is comped — automatically, with no request from your team required. Accountability should not require a complaint. It should be built into the contract from day one.
The following are not aspirational targets. They are contractual minimums, included in the MSA from day one. Each carries an automatic remedy — no claim required from your team.
| On-Time Performance | 99.0% of confirmed pickups staged within the guaranteed window. Measured monthly. Reported to your Duty Manager by the 5th of the following month. |
| Staging Guarantee | Every vehicle staged and ready 15 minutes before scheduled pickup. Failure on a confirmed booking triggers automatic base-fare comp — no request required. |
| Concierge Response | Any request placed through your desk acknowledged within 90 seconds, 24 hours a day. Vehicle confirmation issued within 4 minutes for standard requests; 8 minutes for same-hour requests. |
| Service Recovery | Any verified service failure — late arrival, vehicle presentation below standard, chauffeur conduct issue — triggers a $500 guest credit and complimentary next trip, reported to your Duty Manager within 15 minutes. Automatically. |
| Vehicle Substitution | In the event of mechanical failure, a same-class substitute is confirmed within 10 minutes of identification. Guest is notified before they come downstairs. |
| Reporting Cadence | Monthly: on-time performance, incident log, guest feedback summary, sustainability data. Quarterly: SLA review, chauffeur performance ratings, partnership alignment meeting with your GM or Director of Rooms. |
| Termination | 30-day written notice by either party. No minimum volume commitments. No break fees. No penalties. We are confident in our performance, and we believe a partnership should be sustained by results rather than obligation. |
Every vehicle in the Met Global Mobility fleet is owned outright — no leased vehicles, no brokered assets, no third-party drivers. The Rolls-Royce, Mercedes S-Class 580, Cadillac Escalade ESV, Range Rover, and the full group vehicle range are all maintained to manufacturer standards and presented without compromise at every pickup.
Every rate card looks the same at this level. The differentiator is the human being standing at the vehicle door — their bearing, their discretion, their knowledge of who is in front of them. Met Global Mobility's chauffeur programme is built around a single principle: the person who carries your guest should be indistinguishable, in manner and standard, from the person who checked them in.
| Employment | W-2 direct employees — full benefits, medical certification, continuous background screening. No gig workers, no agency staff, no subcontractors. The chauffeur who picks up a guest has been trained, vetted, and employed by Met Global Mobility directly. Their incentives are aligned with the partnership, not with a platform rating. |
| Vetting | Federal background check, 10-year MVR review, DOT medical certification, drug screening at hire and random thereafter. For chauffeurs cleared to serve principal-level guests, additional screening is conducted in coordination with security advance teams upon request. |
| Training | A minimum 90-day onboarding process before any Ritz-Carlton assignment. Covers luxury hospitality protocols, guest interaction standards, route knowledge for every relevant destination in Greater Boston, aircraft arrival and FBO etiquette, and the specific expectations of diplomatic and principal-level guests. Refresher training quarterly. |
| The Briefing | Before a named guest's first pickup, the assigned chauffeur receives a written briefing: preferred temperature, preferred communication style (silent or conversational), usual routes, dietary notes for in-vehicle refreshments, and any security or discretion flags. The second pickup should feel like a continuation — not a reintroduction. |
| Appearance | Dark suit, white shirt, dark tie — at every hour, for every vehicle class. The Rolls-Royce chauffeur and the group vehicle chauffeur present identically. A consistent appearance is not a policy — it is a reflection of the consistency your guests experience throughout their stay. |
| Discretion | NDA-bound from day one of employment. No social media references to guests, properties, or movements. No guest names disclosed externally under any circumstance. Every guest receives the same standard of discretion — regardless of profile, regardless of journey. |
| Language | Multilingual chauffeurs available: French, Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, Arabic. Requested at time of booking. No premium. |
| Continuity | Named chauffeur assigned at the point of booking, not at dispatch. If unavailable, a named backup — pre-briefed on the full guest profile — is assigned and your concierge team is notified before the pickup. No guest is handed to an unknown driver without prior notice to your desk. |
The concierge portal is built entirely around how a hotel desk actually works — not how a transportation company thinks it works. Every booking your team places carries the guest's name, preferences, room number, flight details, and standing notes. Nothing needs to be repeated. Nothing needs to be looked up. The information your concierge already has about a guest flows directly into every trip we take for them.
Enter a room number. The system pulls the guest's name, tier, preference profile, prior trip history with Met Global, and any standing notes from your concierge team — before a single field is filled in. The second time a guest rides with us, their preferences are already in the vehicle.
Every airport booking is connected to FlightAware from the moment it is placed. Delays, early landings, diverts — the system adjusts pickup timing automatically and notifies the chauffeur without requiring any action from your desk. Your concierge sees the status in real time on the dashboard.
A concierge can type "S-Class for Mr. Chen, Logan pickup at 3pm tomorrow" and the system parses, auto-fills, and confirms the booking. No forms, no dropdown navigation for routine requests. Designed for a desk that is already doing five things at once.
For guests with recurring transportation needs — daily airport runs, morning standby, weekly dinner reservations — standing orders are set once and execute automatically. Your concierge is notified each morning of the day's standing schedule without placing a single booking.
Shift handoffs include a live transportation briefing — active trips, upcoming pickups, guest flags, and any open chauffeur notes. The incoming concierge knows exactly what is in motion before they speak to a single guest. Nothing falls through between shifts.
Every booking your team places generates a trackable commission, reported in real time on the portal dashboard. Monthly statements are produced automatically. Your concierge team knows exactly what the partnership is worth to them — and so does your Director of Rooms.

For guests who wish to explore beyond the city, Met Global Mobility offers a collection of curated day experiences — each arranged around your guest's schedule, with a dedicated Forbes-level trained chauffeur serving as both driver and knowledgeable local guide. Every itinerary is available in the Rolls-Royce, the Mercedes S-Class 580, or the Range Rover Long Wheelbase. Every booking is coordinated directly with your Club Lounge concierge team.
Every Met Global Mobility chauffeur assigned to a curated tour is a trained New England guide — not a driver who happens to know the route. They know which table at the harbour has the best lobster, which road through the Berkshires peaks two weeks before the rest, and which Salem street the tour buses never find. Forbes-level trained in hospitality. Briefed on every guest before departure.
A curated experience is never constrained to a single vehicle. A party of four arrives in the Rolls-Royce. A party of six travels together in the Range Rover Long Wheelbase. A group of eight moves in convoy — the Rolls-Royce leading, the S-Class 580 alongside. The vehicle is part of the experience. We configure the fleet to match the guest, not the other way around.
Newbury Street's private boutiques, Copley Place's designer flagships, and curated introductions to the Back Bay's best personal stylists — arranged around your guest's schedule with preferred-client access on request. Your chauffeur handles parking, carries purchases, and knows which entrance skips the floor entirely.
A curated evening through Boston's oldest neighbourhood — handmade pasta at a family-run trattoria, small-batch Italian wines, a cannoli tasting your chauffeur has pre-arranged, and a walk through cobblestone streets most guests never find on their own. Reservations held under the hotel's name. No waiting.
For the guest with a shorter window — Beacon Hill's gas-lit streets, the Freedom Trail, Harvard Yard, and the Charles River esplanade. Your chauffeur narrates as you move, contextualising three centuries of American history without a microphone or a walking group in sight.
The complete picture — from the harbour to Harvard, with time for a long lunch in Cambridge and an unhurried return through the Back Bay. Your chauffeur knows which side streets frame the skyline best, and which Cambridge café has been pouring the same espresso for forty years. Ideal for the first-time Boston guest who wants the real thing.
The Lower Cape in a single unhurried day — Chatham's working fish pier at sunrise, Provincetown's art galleries and Portuguese bakeries, the National Seashore at Truro, and a waterside lunch your chauffeur has reserved weeks in advance. A journey that stays with guests long after they leave Boston.
New England's most atmospheric day journey — the Salem witch trial sites, the Peabody Essex Museum's world-class maritime collection, and the working harbour that shaped three centuries of American commerce. Your chauffeur knows the back stories the plaques don't tell. October availability is limited — book well in advance.
The Gilded Age in a single day — The Breakers, Marble House, the Cliff Walk, and the harbour at golden hour. Your chauffeur knows which mansion entrance avoids the crowds, which Ocean Drive overlook isn't on any map, and where the best Rhode Island clam chowder is served. A journey best made in the Rolls-Royce, for reasons that become immediately clear on arrival.
September through November. Stockbridge at peak colour, Tanglewood's grounds without the summer crowd, Norman Rockwell's studio, and the Housatonic Valley as the maples turn. Your chauffeur times the route to the light — there are two hours on a specific ridge road that justifies the entire day. One of New England's most requested seasonal experiences.
All experiences available in any vehicle class. Rates and detailed itineraries on request — formatted for your concierge team's reference. 617-491-0005 · [email protected]
Procurement teams at the world's finest properties ask one question that no rate card answers: what happens when everything is wrong? A principal who cannot be named. A tail number that diverts. A schedule that compresses by forty minutes with no warning. The following are not hypotheticals — they reflect the operational situations our dispatch infrastructure, chauffeur roster, and account management protocols are specifically built to absorb. Without a single degree of friction reaching your guest, your concierge team, or your brand.
We maintain a cleared roster of chauffeurs trained in advance-team protocols and accustomed to operating under security direction. Within eleven minutes of the call, vehicle assignments, driver credentials, and route options are transmitted to the detail lead. No guest name leaves our system. No itinerary is documented externally. Your Duty Manager receives a single notification — vehicle count, departure window, nothing more. The motorcade departs. Your front desk never knew it happened. This is not a special procedure. It is our standard one.
Met Global monitors tail numbers through FlightAware integration from the moment a booking is placed. The divert registers in our dispatch system at 9:12pm — two minutes before the FBO notification. The chauffeur is repositioning to Providence by 9:18pm. The guest lands to find their named driver waiting. Total additional transit time: 38 minutes, disclosed to the guest before they board. No call from your concierge desk required. The arrival experience at Avery Street is unchanged.
Our 24/7 dispatch line is staffed by a human dispatcher, not an answering service or app. The Rolls-Royce is staged within a controlled radius of Avery Street at all hours when the house car programme is active — never more than 12 minutes away. Your concierge makes one call. The vehicle is confirmed in under 90 seconds. The guest steps outside at 3:27am to find the car waiting, engine off, chauffeur standing at the door. Nothing about this interaction suggests the property scrambled. Because it didn't.
Met Global monitors South Station departures on a live feed for all booked guests using Amtrak travel. The cancellation registers at 5:46am. By the time the guest checks their phone, a Mercedes S-Class 580 is already en route to Avery Street, confirmed for 6:05am. Boston to Midtown Manhattan: 3 hours 20 minutes in moderate early-morning traffic. The guest works the entire journey in a quiet, isolated cabin. They walk into the boardroom at 9:28am. The meeting runs on time. Your concierge desk was informed once, automatically, at 5:49am.
Our owned fleet — zero leased vehicles — means a same-class substitute is always available from our own yard. Dispatch identifies the fault at 5:11am, assigns an S-Class 580 by 5:14am, and has the guest notified with new vehicle details by 5:19am — before they are awake. Your Duty Manager receives one message at 5:20am. The guest is picked up on time. The base fare is automatically comped: no claim submitted, no request from your desk, no follow-up required. The service recovery guarantee executes itself — which is, we believe, the only kind that truly means anything.
Every Met Global Mobility trip is 100% carbon-offset — automatically, with no guest opt-in, and no surcharge. Monthly GHG Protocol reporting is delivered to The Ritz-Carlton formatted for your corporate sustainability communications.
The path from this proposal to a live partnership is short. We have built partnerships with properties that hold their standards as carefully as you hold yours — and we know that the standards of a Forbes Four-Star hotel require a partner who can move quickly and document thoroughly.
The first Ritz-Carlton in America opened in Boston in 1927. Every journey a guest takes away from 10 Avery Street is still an extension of that legacy. We are built to protect it.
