Why Car Service Beats Driving Yourself
Parking at the US Open is limited, expensive (~$50+), and requires navigating into a lot that empties all at once after sessions end — creating massive exit delays. Car service drops you at the gate, and you request a pickup when you are ready to leave (no waiting in parking traffic).
