St. Petersburg Airport Transportation Made Simple
Instead of calling five local bus companies and waiting around on callbacks, you share your flight date, pickup location, and passenger count once to compare options from one of the largest networks of independent operators in St. Petersburg and all of Florida. Skip the 8-car caravan down I-275, avoid surge-priced rideshares at the terminal curb, and keep your whole group together with all their luggage stored securely onboard! Once you reserve your vehicle online through the national booking platform, a dedicated confirmation department calls you to verify every terminal stop, hotel drop-off, and pickup time. Yes, finding your next St. Petersburg airport shuttle really is that easy!

Take a Look at Your Airport Transportation Bus Options
Whatever your headcount or luggage load looks like, there is a vehicle in the network built for your flight! Small executive teams and VIP flyers can book a sprinter van with a driver for quick transfers to waterfront hotels along Beach Drive in Downtown St. Pete. Medium-sized groups love our 15- to 35-passenger minibuses—including popular 18-passenger minibuses and 25-passenger minibuses—for easy hops down Ulmerton Road or across the Howard Frankland Bridge. Flying in with a massive tour group, sports roster, or convention crowd with a week's worth of heavy suitcases? Rent a full-size 56-passenger charter bus equipped with spacious undercarriage luggage bays, overhead storage bins, reclining seats, climate control, onboard WiFi, power outlets, and a onboard restroom. You can even book a party bus rental with wraparound leather seating, color-changing LED lighting, and Bluetooth sound to kick off a bachelorette weekend on St. Pete Beach the moment you land!

*Planning estimates from the independent bus companies in the network, not a quote for your date. Each route is figured from weekday hourly rates for the bus's drive there and back, rounded up to whole hours, with the 2-hour minimum. Your exact price depends on your travel date, passenger and luggage count, and the bus you pick. Standard minimums: 2 hours Monday through Wednesday or earlier in the day, 3 hours or more after 5 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and up to 5 hours on the busiest dates. These are just standard minimums. Call us and we can often set up less time, a one-way, split time or a custom package. Outside trip costs like and parking are paid separately. Call (561) 493-2851 any day of the year for a custom airport transfer package!

Where do charter buses pick up and drop off at PIE and TPA?
At St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport (PIE), charter buses cannot idle at the curb, so your driver waits in the staging area off Terminal Boulevard until your whole group has collected their bags and is ready for curbside loading outside Baggage Claim A or B. At Tampa International Airport (TPA), full-size motorcoaches and minibuses use the designated commercial Bus & Limo zones located at the ends of the Red and Blue Baggage Claim curbs. For private flights at Albert Whitted Airport (SPG) on 1st Street SE, your driver coordinates directly with the FBO for ramp-side or lobby pickup. Make sure your entire group and all luggage are gathered together before texting your driver to pull up!
How much luggage can we bring on an airport charter bus?
Full-size 56-passenger charter buses feature cavernous underneath luggage bays that easily hold one large checked suitcase per passenger, plus overhead racks inside the cabin for carry-on bags! Smaller minibuses (like a 20-passenger minibus or 30-passenger minibus) offer overhead storage and rear luggage compartments, which work great for groups traveling with light luggage or duffels.
