One point of contact for every C-suite journey, in every city, on any timeline. We replace the complexity of managing ground transport across continents with a single relationship — and a single standard.
Ernest & Sons exists to solve one problem: the operational burden of coordinating ground transport for senior leadership across multiple countries, vendors, time zones, and standards. We serve the people responsible for making that seamless.
01
Executive Services and Events Teams
You manage the C-suite’s schedule, travel, and logistics. Ground transport is one of the hardest pieces to control globally — too many vendors, inconsistent quality, no single point of accountability. We become that point.
02
Corporate Travel Departments
Your mandate is cost control, compliance, and duty of care. We deliver centralised billing, auditable records, vetted drivers in every market, and the consistency your procurement team requires — without the overhead of managing it.
03
Family Offices & Private Principals
Discretion is not a feature. It is the entire foundation. We provide ongoing transport programmes for distinguished families — managed with the same operational rigour as our largest corporate mandates, and the personal care that only comes from a dedicated account manager.
Transparent Pricing
Get rates for your city.
Select your destination and service type. Receive a tailored rate overview directly via WhatsApp — no forms, no waiting.

For Executive Assistants & Event Managers
Designed for those managing the impossible.
We eliminate the part that keeps you up at night. You are responsible for ensuring the CEO’s ground transport is flawless in every city, every time. You do not have time to vet drivers in Tokyo, chase invoices from a Paris vendor, or troubleshoot a no-show in Riyadh at 2am. That is our job. We take the entire burden off your desk — and we do it to a standard you can stake your reputation on.
One Invoice, One Relationship
No more managing 30 vendor relationships and reconciling fragmented billing. One monthly invoice. One account manager. Clean records for finance and compliance.
Named Account Manager, Not a Portal
A human who knows your principals by name, understands their preferences, and is reachable 24/7. Not a booking system. Not a call centre. A person who owns the outcome.
Proactive Coordination
We monitor flights, flag delays, reroute in real time, and surface problems before you even know they exist. You get updates when they matter — not noise.
Rapid Deployment Anywhere
Last-minute board meeting in Milan? Unscheduled stop in Cape Town? Our network is built for change. We deploy a vetted chauffeur and vehicle within hours, globally.
Security Integration
We coordinate directly with CPO and close protection teams. Route planning, advance logistics, armoured vehicles — aligned with your security protocols from brief to debrief.
Global Reach
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere.
Our network allows us to deploy a vetted chauffeur and vehicle to virtually any city on the planet within hours. Every driver has been personally met and evaluated by our team.

Event Ground Operations
When every minute defines the event.
Ground transport at this level is not a logistics service. It is invisible architecture that either holds — or collapses. We build the architecture. Every route mapped. Every contingency planned. Every chauffeur briefed before the first guest arrives.

Our Services
Three mandates. One standard.
Executive & Corporate
Daily movements, airport transfers, roadshows, board visits. Single transfers to multi-vehicle programmes. Seamlessly integrated with your EA, security, and event teams from brief to debrief.
For distinguished families and private principals. Holidays, private events, and ongoing programmes — handled with the same rigour as our highest-profile corporate mandates. Continuity and discretion guaranteed.
Coordinated in full alignment with CPO and close protection teams. Complex rolling schedules for summits, fashion weeks, diplomatic movements, and brand events. Armoured vehicles available on request.
Ernest & Sons was not built on ambition alone. It was built on a memory — of Ernest, whose mastery behind the wheel was not about speed or distance, but about care. The way a door closes. The silence held during a difficult call. The calm that made every passenger feel entirely safe.
Today, our recruitment standard remains what sets us apart: regardless of where a chauffeur operates globally, an Ernest & Sons account manager travels to personally assess them — driving skill, language, presentation, vehicle condition, and composure under pressure. We vouch from direct experience.
Ernest & Sons is not a chauffeur company. We are a global ground transport management partner for organisations whose senior leadership travels across continents and expects a consistent, impeccable standard in every city.
