Advance reservations • Private transportation
A private airport ride with an agreed itinerary.
The word shuttle can describe different kinds of transportation. This page covers prearranged private ground transfers, with availability and the trip details confirmed through the booking process.
Share your flight, the address at the other end, and everyone traveling with you. Do not assume a fixed shared-bus timetable, a particular vehicle, or unlimited waiting is included.
A clear reservation should state where to meet, when to be ready, what journey is covered, and how changes are handled. Ask questions before confirming so the arrangement fits your travel plans.

- Destination
- Your pickup or drop-off address

Plan the parts that matter for this trip.
Before you reserve
List passenger ages where seating requirements matter, luggage quantities, and mobility equipment. Confirm suitability rather than relying on a general description of a shuttle.
Meeting after a flight
Keep the confirmed instructions accessible and allow time to collect bags. Contact the team if your incoming flight changes and ask about the applicable delay arrangements.
Leaving for TYS
Have your group ready at the agreed point. Provide the airline and departure time so the road journey and recommended airport arrival can be considered together.
Confirm the details that matter before booking.
State whether the request is for an arrival, departure, or airport connection. Include the airport code so the starting point and destination are unambiguous.
Give the passenger count, luggage quantities, and any child-seat or accessibility needs. Ask the team to confirm suitable arrangements; do not assume a vehicle feature is included.
Review the meeting instructions, total price, waiting policy, and change terms. Keep the confirmation accessible and contact the team if your itinerary changes.
Plan the itinerary before your travel day.
Know the arrangements before you reserve.
Send your date, addresses, passenger details, and requested stops to receive a personalized quote. Confirm what is included, payment arrangements, and the applicable cancellation or change terms.
If the trip has several legs, ask for each to be identified in the reservation. Additional outings and return travel should be agreed explicitly so everyone knows which journeys are covered.
