The Mark in New York City Launches VIP Airport Concierge & Transportation Service

NEW YORK (October 16, 2012) – The Mark Hotel is proud to announce The Mark's VIP Airport Concierge Service, a new program to provide hotel guests with first class treatment from the moment of arrival in New York at JFK, Newark, and La Guardia airports. As the first and only hotel in the US to offer this unique airport service, the Mark's VIP Airport Concierge allows guests to avoid endless lines and save valuable time getting into or departing from New York City.

"As modern day travel becomes more of a hassle, The Mark is pleased to offer the VIP Airport Concierge service to guests for effortless travel," Olivier Lordonnois, General Manager of The Mark stated. "Our VIP Airport Service will facilitate and expedite any delays guests may experience with passport control, bag check, security, car services and airport transfers."

The Mark Airport Concierge agents are carefully vetted to assist with the following services:

Arrival Service:
Upon arrival, the greeter meets guests at the airport gate to guide through the immigration process, bypassing the line. Assisting with luggage retrieval and an expedited customs process, the greeter also locates the driver and accompanies hotel guests to luxury transportation seamlessly.

Departure Service:
With The Mark's departure service, guests can concentrate on business or pleasure as a chauffeur provides guests with transportation from the hotel to the airport. Once at the airport, The Mark's greeter assists with luggage and an expedited check-in. Bypassing long security waits, guests easily arrive at the airport gate with the help of a greeter.

Both services are available at each of the New York area's major international airports - JFK, La Guardia, and Newark Airports. Arrival Service is highly recommended for international visitors to New York City.
