CLT Airport Shuttle Transportation Service Options

By Patrick Young


Trying to find someone to take you to the airport is a huge hassle, especially if your flight leaves really early in the morning, or during a weekday when people are working. Instead of trying to find that elusive person who has a schedule that can accommodate your flight times, you could just hire a shuttle service to get you there, instead. If you live in the Charlotte, NC area, then a CLT airport shuttle transportation service can help.

These Charlotte based ride providers do not just service people in the city. Since there are many suburbs and rural communities in the Charlotte area, most of these services will drive out to get you and take you to the airport. Keep in mind that the further and more remote you live, the higher the fare may be. If you need a ride to and from the airport, ask about discounts for booking a round trip shuttle ride to save money.

You can choose two ways to book your shuttle, either online or by phone. They will need your name and address to confirm the booking, but some will also ask for your flight numbers. This is to make sure they have your flight departure down properly so they can plan a pickup time that is appropriate. If this service is provided, they can also use it to check in on your flight for possible delays to adjust your pickup time.

Another piece of info they must have is whether you mind a group van ride, or if you prefer your own private car. If you choose private, the far will be higher but you will get there faster. A sedan may be sent, or if you want to splurge and arrive in style, you can choose to book a limo instead.

If you do not mind sharing a ride with others, then you can take that option instead, which saves you money but takes more time. That is because after picking you up, there may be one or more stops to pick up additional people. Modified cargo vans or mini buses may be used for this type of service.

You can rest assured that the drivers are safe, friendly and fully licensed and insured to do the job. They know the area well so they will not get lost. They know the airport well enough to know which terminal to let you out at, depending on which airline you are flying with.

All vehicles in the fleet are inspected on a regular basis and given routine maintenance. This is to ensure the safety of everyone in the car and to make sure there are no delays.

Though the full price of the fare is known up front, you should always tip your driver. This is the only additional cost, and is a token of your appreciation for a job well done. Even with tip, a shuttle is one of the best values going for a ride to the airport, and you won't have to beg a friend or family member for a ride.
