Travel in comfort and privacy with door-to-door airport transfer service. No crowded rideshares, no stressful pickups. Punctual, professional drivers make sure you arrive relaxed and right on schedule — whether it is a 5 AM flight or a late-night return. Private, non-shared rides from $85, with real-time flight tracking on every arrival and 24/7 dispatch across 100+ Washington cities.
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.
Private airport transfers offer the highest level of comfort, safety, and convenience for travelers who expect more than a rideshare app can deliver. One vehicle, one driver, one destination.
Avoid shared vehicles and enjoy peace of mind with private transfer service. You will be greeted by a clean, premium vehicle and a courteous driver ready to take you directly to the terminal or home — with no stops and no delays.
Whether you are catching a 5 AM departure out of SeaTac, landing at Paine Field after a long haul, or connecting through a private FBO at Boeing Field, the routing is direct and the vehicle is yours for the duration of the trip.

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