How the New York Mets streamlined travel for every part of the organization
Every fan sees what happens on the field. But behind the scenes, there’s a whole other game in motion. For the New York Mets, keeping the organization moving requires coordinating hundreds of trips, dozens of departments, and some of the biggest names in baseball.
When the Mets needed a partner who could handle travel at the scale and pace of a major league franchise, they turned to Corporate Traveler.
And they haven’t looked back.
Looking for a place to stay in New York City?
Your meeting might be in Midtown while your dinner is in the Financial District. The startup you're visiting could be in Brooklyn, but your client presentation is near Grand Central. Choosing the wrong hotel turns productive trips into subway nightmares.
We'll recommend the best hotels for your schedule and business needs. These are properties our Travel Managers have personally vetted for location, reliability, and business functionality.
Our top hotel partners in New York City:
- InterContinental New York Barclay – Grand Central proximity for corporate headquarters access
- The Benjamin Royal Sonesta – Classic Midtown elegance with extended-stay functionality
- Hotel Indigo Lower East Side – Positioned for Brooklyn and the creative tech community
- The Beekman, A Thompson Hotel – Financial District sophistication with stunning architecture
- Kimpton Eventi – Strategic Madison Square Garden and Penn Station location
Getting around NYC like a pro
Getting around NYC is about timing, mode selection, and knowing when not to take a car. Local knowledge saves hours.
-
Subway: fastest for core business districts
Runs 24/7. Connects Midtown, Financial District, Brooklyn, Queens. Often faster than taxis during peak hours.
Ideal for: Midtown ↔ Downtown meetings, conference access (Javits Center, Brooklyn Navy Yard)
-
Taxis & rideshare: flexible but unpredictable
Best for: Short distances off subway lines and late-night travel.
The challenge: Traffic can turn 15 minutes into 45+ without warning.
-
Walking: underrated
In Midtown or SoHo, walking is often fastest. Keeps you on schedule between back-to-back meetings.
Best for: Meetings within 10 blocks and tight schedules where every minute counts.
-
Ferries: niche but valuable
Routes from Pier 11/Wall Street connect Manhattan to Brooklyn, Queens, and New Jersey.
Useful for: Brooklyn/Queens meetings and avoiding rush hour congestion.
-
Airport transfers require planning
NYC has three major airports:
- JFK – International hub
- LaGuardia – Domestic focus
- Newark – Mixed, strong for NJ access
Travel time to Manhattan: 30–90+ minutes depending on traffic
Options:
- AirTrain + subway (predictable, cost-effective)
- Chauffeur/car service (preferred for executives and groups)
- Pre-booked transfers (reliability when timing matters)
-
Executive & group transport
- Book pre-arranged sedans, SUVs, vans for roadshows, conferences, and airport transfers.
- Benefits: Reliable timing, centralized billing, real-time flight tracking
-
Commuter rail to suburbs
- Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) – Connects Long Island to Penn Station/Grand Central
- Metro-North Railroad – Connects Westchester, Hudson Valley, Connecticut to Grand Central
- NJ Transit Rail – Connects New Jersey to Penn Station (Newark, Jersey City, Princeton)
