The US Open Is Back — Here’s How to Arrive Like a VIP

From August 24 to September 7, 2025, New York becomes the center of the tennis world. Whether it’s your first time attending or you’ve had courtside seats for years, how you arrive at the US Open can define your day.

More fans are skipping the subway and rideshare roulette in favor of private, chauffeured service. At DH2, we’ve been helping tennis lovers and corporate guests arrive in comfort—and leave the stress behind.

1. Skip the Subway, Book the Black Car

Sure, the 7-train technically gets you to Flushing Meadows. But it also comes with delays, heat, and crowds. When you’re dressed for the day and aiming for ease, luxury ground transportation makes all the difference. With DH2, you get:

• Door-to-door service from your hotel, home, or the airport
• Professional chauffeurs who know the best drop-off zones near the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center
• A quiet, air-conditioned ride with room for your group, luggage, and tennis gear
• Easy post-match exits—no long waits, no surge pricing

Many fans reserve return trips or keep the car on standby for the entire day. When every match is an experience, your ride should be part of it.

2. Stay Close to the Action

Where you stay matters, especially when timing is tight. Here are a few smart options:

• Flushing, Queens – Closest to the grounds. Hotels like Hyatt Place and The Parc Hotel offer walkability.
• Long Island City – Trendy, stylish, and just a short drive or subway ride away.
• Midtown Manhattan – Great for mixing tennis with sightseeing. DH2 can handle the daily transfers.

Looking for luxury? Try The Beekman, The Langham, or The Ritz-Carlton—all ideal for high-end service and concierge support.

3. Know Your Seats, Maximize Your Experience

Arthur Ashe Stadium is the crown jewel—but every court has its charm. Keep these tips in mind:

• Courtside and Loge seats offer the best viewing (and bragging rights)
• Early rounds offer better value and more access to big names on smaller courts
• Buy through official channels like USOpen.org or Ticketmaster—resale platforms can work in a pinch but often come with markups
• Western seats offer more shade during sun-soaked sessions

4. Make the Most of Match Day

Tennis is just part of the fun. Here’s where fans go before and after the match:

• Flushing Chinatown – Incredible food, just minutes from the stadium
• Corona Park – Great for walks or downtime between sessions
• Midtown & LIC – Ideal for post-match rooftop drinks and upscale dining

If you’re heading back into Manhattan, make a reservation—you’ll thank yourself later.

5. What to Pack (Trust Us on These)

Every seasoned fan comes prepared. Don’t forget:

• A portable charger — your phone will work overtime
• Light layers — hot days, cooler nights
• A reusable water bottle — fill stations available inside
• Your mobile ticket — the US Open is paperless this year
