Quick Answer

What Is A Private Airport Transfer?

A private airport transfer is a pre-booked, non-shared ride between an airport and your exact address, in a vehicle reserved for your party alone. Seattle Shuttle provides private airport transfers to and from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), Paine Field (PAE), Boeing Field (BFI), and private FBO terminals, with real-time flight tracking, a professional driver, and pricing quoted upfront starting from $85. Unlike a shared shuttle, there are no other passengers, no additional stops, and no waiting for a full vehicle before departure.

Booking a private transfer means the vehicle, the driver, and the schedule are yours. Your driver tracks your flight, adjusts for delays automatically, and takes you directly to your destination.

The region's second commercial airport, serving Snohomish County and the North Sound with a compact terminal and quick curbside access. Convenient for travelers heading to Everett, Mukilteo, Lynnwood, Edmonds, and Marysville.

Seattle Shuttle nailed it. I booked a private transfer for my in-laws — they were met inside, helped with bags, and got home comfortably.

I do not do shared rides anymore. These guys offer peace, quiet, and punctuality. It is like business class on the ground.

The vehicle was spotless, the driver was friendly, and we got to the airport early despite traffic. Totally worth it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Private Airport Transfer FAQ

Common questions about booking a private, non-shared airport transfer in the Seattle area.

How is a private airport transfer different from a regular shuttle?

A private transfer is a non-shared ride reserved for you and your party alone. There are no other passengers, no additional pickups, and no waiting for a vehicle to fill before it departs. You are taken directly from your pickup address to the terminal, or from the terminal to your exact destination. A shared shuttle sells seats individually and collects several parties along a rotating route, which lowers the per-person price but adds stops and makes arrival time less predictable.

How much does a private airport transfer cost in Seattle?

Private transfers start from $85 for a Standard Sedan class vehicle and are calculated by mileage, so your exact price is confirmed before you book. SeaTac to downtown Seattle starts from $85, to Bellevue and the Eastside from $95, to Tacoma from $95, and to Everett or Olympia from $150. Paine Field and Boeing Field transfers start from $85. Tolls and taxes are included in the quoted rate. Gratuity is optional. Meet-and-greet service is a $50 add-on and child car seats are a paid add-on, both priced upfront at booking.

Do I need to book in advance?

Booking ahead is recommended, particularly during peak travel periods, though same-day reservations are accommodated when vehicles are available. Twenty-four to 48 hours is usually sufficient for standard transfers. Book 10 to 14 days ahead during Alaska cruise season from May through September, and 2 to 4 weeks ahead for Thanksgiving week and the December 18 to January 2 holiday window.

Can I choose the vehicle type?

Yes. Private airport transfers are available in seven classes: Standard Sedan for 2 passengers, Premium Sedan for 3, Luxury Sedan for 3, Mini Van for 4, Luxury SUV for 6, Passenger Van for 10, and Sprinter Van for 14. You select the class during booking based on your group size and luggage, and the rate for that class is shown before you confirm.

Do you serve airports outside of SeaTac?

Yes. We cover all Seattle-area airports including Paine Field (PAE) in Everett for commercial flights, Boeing Field (BFI) for private and charter aviation, and private FBO terminals across the region. All are served 24 hours a day with advance booking and real-time flight tracking.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Your driver adjusts automatically. We track all flights in real time, so the pickup shifts to match your actual arrival without any call or rebooking from you. Every airport pickup includes 30 minutes of complimentary wait time after landing. If your flight is rerouted to a different time or terminal, notifying dispatch is enough to move the reservation.

Where does my driver meet me at the airport?

For standard pickups, your driver texts you the baggage claim door number and meets you curbside at that door once you have collected your bags. This is included at no extra charge. Meet-and-greet service is a $50 add-on selected at booking. Your driver waits inside the terminal at baggage claim holding a name sign and assists with luggage to the vehicle. It is the better option for first-time visitors, international arrivals, elderly passengers, and travelers with young children.

Are child car seats available for a private transfer?

Yes. Infant seats, convertible seats, and booster seats meeting Washington State safety requirements are available across every vehicle class. Specify the seat type and the child's age when booking. Child car seats are a paid add-on with the fee shown upfront in your quote.

Can I book a private transfer for a very early or very late flight?

Yes. Dispatch operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. A 3:45 AM pickup for a 6 AM departure is quoted at the same mileage-based rate as a midday trip, with no overnight, weekend, or holiday surcharge applied.

Is the same driver assigned for a round trip?

Whenever scheduling permits, round trips are assigned the same driver in both directions. This is one of the practical advantages of a pre-booked private transfer over a rideshare app, where each leg is dispatched to a different driver with no continuity.

How many passengers and bags can a private transfer carry?

Private transfer vehicles carry from 2 to 14 passengers with matched luggage capacity: Standard Sedan 2 passengers and 2 bags, Premium and Luxury Sedan 3 and 3, Mini Van 4 and 4, Luxury SUV 6 and 6, Passenger Van 10 and 10, and Sprinter Van 14 and 14. Groups larger than 14 are handled through our shuttle bus, executive coach, and motor coach charter service.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay for online bookings. Corporate accounts may issue a purchase order and settle by invoice on net-30 terms rather than keeping a card on file.

Can I add extra stops to a private transfer?

Yes. Additional stops such as a hotel pickup, an office, or a second residence can be added during booking and are priced into the mileage-based quote before you confirm. Because the vehicle is private, added stops are on your schedule rather than a shared route.

Do you provide private transfers outside the Seattle metro area?

Yes. Private transfers run throughout Washington State, including Tacoma, Olympia, Everett, Bellingham, Leavenworth, Wenatchee, Yakima, the Tri-Cities, and Spokane. Long-distance transfers are quoted on request based on mileage and routing, and are available 24 hours a day with advance booking.
