South Bend Airport Shuttles at South Bend International Airport (SBN)
With one quick form, you can arrange seamless curbside pickups and drop-offs at South Bend International Airport (SBN) at 4477 Progress Drive, just off US-20 and I-80/I-90 (the Indiana Toll Road)! Because commercial vehicles cannot idle at the terminal curb, your driver can stage off-site or along Lincoln Way West until your whole group has gathered its bags at the lower-level baggage claim. Once you text your driver, your private shuttle pulls right up to the outer commercial ground transportation lane outside the main terminal doors so everyone loads up together in minutes! Need a regional airport transfer for a connecting flight? You can also book a long-distance charter bus along I-90 to Chicago O’Hare (ORD), Chicago Midway (MDW), or down I-69 to Indianapolis International Airport (IND)!
Shuttle Services for Airport Employees
It's easier than ever to keep airline crews, TSA staff, and ground operations teams moving on time with a custom employee shuttle service in South Bend! Airport work never stops at 5 p.m., and your staff shouldn’t have to stress over winter weather on Bendix Drive or long walks from remote employee parking lots off Lathrop Street. You can book a 20-passenger minibus or 35-passenger minibus on an hourly, daily, or long-term contract to run continuous loops between remote lots, fixed-base operators (FBOs) like Corporate Wings and Atlantic Aviation, and the main SBN terminal. Flight crews will love relaxing in climate-controlled cabins with onboard WiFi and power outlets to check flight manifests between shifts. Need to adjust routes or set up a recurring schedule? Our live support team is available 365 days a year to build a package around your shift rotations!

*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 Tri-State Tollway (I 80 / I 294) and Tri-State Tollway (I 294) tolls and parking are paid separately. Call (574) 347-8425 any day of the year for a custom airport transfer package!

Does Charterbussouthbend.com own the airport shuttle buses?
No, and that’s the whole point! Charter
Where do we meet our charter bus driver at South Bend International Airport?
Since SBN prohibits curbside idling, your driver will wait in an off-site staging area until your entire group has claimed its luggage at the lower-level baggage claim. Once everyone is together with their bags in hand, call or text your driver to pull up to the commercial ground transportation curb outside the main terminal. If part of your group arrives on the South Shore Line train at the east end of the terminal, everyone can meet at baggage claim before boarding together! Plus, our confirmation department calls you after booking to verify your exact pickup plan.
What size bus should I book if my group has a lot of luggage?
It depends on your headcount and how many checked bags each flyer is bringing! For groups of 30 to 56 passengers with full-size suitcases, equipment cases, or golf clubs, we recommend a full-size 56-passenger charter bus because it includes deep undercarriage luggage bays beneath the bus plus overhead racks inside. Smaller groups with light carry-ons can book an 18-passenger minibus, 30-passenger minibus, or sprinter van. Just mention your luggage count when requesting your quote so you get the right storage space!
