A Northeast roadshow — typically New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., sometimes with stops in Connecticut and New Jersey — can be run by train, private jet or car. Amtrak connects the city centers efficiently, but a chauffeured vehicle gives teams a private workspace, door-to-door timing and flexibility for suburban meetings. Many roadshows combine approaches: local chauffeured cars in each city plus rail or air between cities, or one vehicle for the whole trip when meetings are spread out.
Options compared
| Approach | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| One car for the whole trip | Private workspace; luggage stays in car; door to door | Long drives (NYC–Boston ~4–4.5 hours) |
| Train + local cars | Fast between downtowns; productive on board | Station transfers with luggage |
| Private jet + local cars | Fastest for long legs | Cost; airport transfers |
