About A List

Service,
since 1997.

A List Worldwide Chauffeured Services was founded in Los Angeles on a simple idea: the car should be the least complicated part of the day. Nearly three decades later, that idea still shapes every reservation.

Our story

Built in Los Angeles.
Trusted everywhere.

Avi Karpel founded A List in 1997 with a Los Angeles base minutes from LAX. What began as a local chauffeur operation grew into a nationwide and worldwide network — 480+ cities, one consistent standard.

Today A List is a member of the National Limousine Association and the Greater California Livery Association. Those memberships reflect a commitment to professional operations, but the real measure is simpler: the client who books once and calls back for the next twenty years.

  • Locally owned and operated in Los Angeles since 1997.
  • NLA and GCLA member.
  • 480+ cities served nationwide and worldwide.
  • Reservations answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Our mission

Certainty,
by design.

Anyone can send a black car. Our mission is to remove the uncertainty around it — the unanswered question, the missed confirmation, the receipt that never arrives. These commitments are built into every A List reservation.

24h

Advance reminder

A reminder 24 hours before pickup, confirming the date, time and location so nothing is left to memory.

6h

Chauffeur details

Six hours before pickup you receive your chauffeur's name, cell number, vehicle and license plate.

Live

Arrival notifications

An on-location notification when the chauffeur arrives, and a passenger-on-board notification once you are underway.

Email

Receipts, sent

An emailed receipt after every ride, itemized and ready for your records or expense report.

Flat

One agreed rate

A flat rate quoted in advance — including the same flat rate to downtown areas nationwide.

24/7

Someone awake

Reservations and dispatch are reachable around the clock, including holidays and early departures.

Safety & care

A clean car.
A careful chauffeur.

A luxury vehicle is only as good as the person driving it and the condition it arrives in. Our safety and cleaning practices are part of the service, not an afterthought.

  • Vehicles cleaned and sanitized between trips, with high-touch surfaces wiped down.
  • Hand sanitizer available in every vehicle.
  • Chauffeurs follow current local health guidance and stay home when unwell.
  • Vehicles inspected and prepared before each reservation.

Questions about our practices? Call (415) 494-8122 — we are happy to talk through them.

“The measure of a chauffeur company is not the car at the curb. It is everything that happened before it arrived.”

Who we serve

One company.
Every occasion.
