A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Stress-Free Transfers at St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE)
St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE), located at 14700 Terminal Blvd, Clearwater, FL 33762, is a favorite for travelers looking to land directly in the heart of Pinellas County. While it is smaller than its neighbor across the bay, PIE serves a massive volume of visitors, particularly those flying with budget-friendly carriers like Allegiant Air. For groups, the smaller size of the airport can actually be a benefit, as it allows for quicker exits and less walking distance to ground transportation. However, finding multiple rideshares or taxis for a group of 20, 40, or 50 people at PIE can quickly turn into a logistical nightmare, especially during peak tourist seasons when demand spikes.
When you book a private shuttle with Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater, we eliminate the uncertainty of arrival. Your driver will be staged at the designated Ground Transportation lot, ready to greet your group as soon as you collect your bags. We monitor your flights in real-time, so even if you arrive early or face a delay, your transportation will be synchronized with your landing. Instead of splitting up into five or six different vehicles and hoping everyone arrives at your hotel on Clearwater Beach at the same time, your entire group can board a single, climate-controlled motorcoach. With ample undercarriage storage for suitcases and golf clubs, you can settle into a reclining seat and enjoy the air conditioning immediately, bypassing the heat and humidity of the Florida tarmac.
Seamless Connections from Tampa International Airport (TPA) to Clearwater Beach
While PIE is the local hub, many of our clients choose to fly into Tampa International Airport (TPA), located at 4100 George J Bean Pkwy, Tampa, FL 33607, due to its wider variety of international flights and major airline carriers. TPA is consistently ranked as one of the best airports in the country, but for groups headed to Clearwater, it requires crossing the bay. The drive from TPA to Clearwater Beach takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on traffic along the Courtney Campbell Causeway or the Howard Frankland Bridge. For a large group unfamiliar with the area, organizing a convoy of rental cars to navigate these bridges during rush hour is a recipe for stress and separation.
Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater simplifies this transfer entirely. We provide curbside pickup services at the dedicated bus zones located at the commercial vehicle lanes at TPA. Whether you are landing at the Red Side or the Blue Side, the drivers know exactly where to stage to ensure a smooth loading process. Once onboard, your group can relax and take in the scenic views of Old Tampa Bay as we cross the causeway. We can transport you directly to major Clearwater hotels like the Sandpearl Resort, the Wyndham Grand, or the Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa. By consolidating your group into one charter bus, you ensure that everyone checks in simultaneously, allowing your itinerary to start the moment you cross the bridge into Clearwater.
Private Aviation Transfers at Clearwater Air Park (CLW)
For executive teams, VIPs, and private groups utilizing general aviation, Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater offers discreet and professional service to and from Clearwater Air Park (CLW), located at 1000 N Hercules Ave, Clearwater, FL 33765. This facility is located closer to the downtown area and the beaches than the larger commercial airports, making it a prime choice for those flying private. We understand that time is money for corporate clients and that privacy is paramount. Our fleet includes sleek, modern sprinter vans and executive minibuses that are perfectly suited for smaller groups arriving via private jet or charter flight.
Our chauffeurs are well-versed in the protocols of private aviation terminals (FBOs). We will coordinate directly with your flight crew or handling agent to ensure the vehicle is pulled up tarmac-side or as close as security regulations allow the moment your aircraft doors open. Inside the vehicle, your executives can enjoy premium amenities such as leather seating, power outlets for charging devices, and privacy tinting. Whether you need a quick transfer to a boardroom meeting in downtown Clearwater or a ride to a luxury beachfront estate, our private aviation transfer service offers the white-glove experience you expect. We ensure that the transition from air to ground is indistinguishable in quality and comfort.
Coordinating Corporate Arrivals for Clearwater Conferences
Clearwater is a premier destination for conferences, trade shows, and corporate retreats, often hosted at venues like the Sheraton Sand Key Resort or the Opal Sands Resort. When you are responsible for moving hundreds of employees or conference attendees, relying on individual reimbursement for taxis is inefficient and costly. Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater specializes in corporate logistics, creating custom shuttle loops between airports and your event venue. We can manage manifests for arrivals at both PIE and TPA, ensuring that waves of employees arriving on different flights are grouped efficiently onto waiting motorcoaches.
Onboard our corporate charters, productivity doesn't have to stop. Your team can utilize our complimentary WiFi to answer emails, check into the hotel virtually, or review presentation decks before arriving at the venue. Our buses can also be equipped with PA systems, allowing team leaders or event organizers to make announcements, distribute itineraries, or provide a welcome briefing while en route to the hotel. We understand that first impressions matter in business; arriving in a clean, modern, professional charter bus sets the right tone for your corporate event. Let us handle the complex logistics of flight tracking and group coordination so you can focus on the content of your conference.
Wedding and Event Shuttles for Out-of-Town Guests
Clearwater Beach is consistently voted one of the best beaches in the United States, making it a massive draw for destination weddings. However, inviting guests from all over the country means coordinating arrivals at different times and potentially different airports. You want your guests to feel taken care of from the moment they land, rather than stressed about renting cars or navigating unfamiliar highways like US-19 or Gulf to Bay Boulevard. Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater offers comprehensive wedding shuttle packages that include airport transfers for your out-of-town loved ones.
We can organize a greeting service where guests are met at baggage claim and escorted to their private shuttle. This is especially helpful for elderly relatives or families traveling with small children who might find the airport environment overwhelming. Once everyone is on board, you can start the celebration early! We can play your custom wedding playlist over the sound system, and guests can use the ride to catch up with family members they haven't seen in years. Whether you need a sprinter van for the bridal party arriving early or a full 56-passenger coach for the general guest list, we ensure everyone arrives at the hotel or venue relaxed, refreshed, and ready to celebrate your union.
How We Handle Flight Delays and Schedule Changes
In the world of air travel, delays are an unfortunate reality. Thunderstorms over the Gulf of Mexico or air traffic control issues in other parts of the country can shift arrival times by minutes or hours. At Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater, we believe that a delayed flight shouldn't mean a cancelled ride. Our reservation team monitors all incoming flights using advanced tracking software. If your flight into St. Pete-Clearwater (PIE) or Tampa (TPA) is delayed, we automatically adjust the dispatch schedule for your driver. You do not need to panic or make frantic phone calls from the runway; we already know.
Our warm and welcoming reservation agents are here to answer your request and help you with any questions regarding schedule changes. If a flight is cancelled entirely or diverted, we work with you to reschedule the pickup for the new arrival time. We provide 24/7 support, meaning that even if your flight gets pushed to 2:00 AM, a driver will be there waiting for you. Our goal is to be the most reliable part of your travel experience. You have enough to worry about when travel plans go awry; getting to your final destination in Clearwater shouldn't be one of them. We are flexible, responsive, and dedicated to ensuring you are never left stranded.
Luggage Storage Solutions for Group Airport Travel
One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a group is luggage management. Standard rideshares and even rental vans rarely have the capacity to handle the suitcases, carry-ons, and personal items of 15 or more people—not to mention golf clubs for a trip to the Innisbrook Resort or equipment for a trade show. When you book a full-size charter bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater, space is never an issue. Our motorcoaches are equipped with massive undercarriage storage bays designed to hold heavy luggage for up to 56 passengers comfortably.
Inside the cabin, overhead parcel racks provide convenient storage for backpacks, purses, laptops, and other items you want to keep accessible during the drive. This keeps the aisles clear and ensures that every passenger has plenty of legroom to stretch out. For sports teams traveling to tournaments in Clearwater, our buses can easily accommodate equipment bags, uniforms, and coolers without compromising passenger comfort. You won't have to play "Tetris" with your luggage or sit with a suitcase on your lap. Your driver will assist in loading and unloading the storage bays, making the transition from the curb to the hotel lobby seamless and physically effortless for your group.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clearwater Airport Transportation
How far in advance should I book my airport transfer to Clearwater?
We recommend booking your airport charter bus as soon as your flight details are confirmed, ideally at least 3 to 6 months in advance. Clearwater is a popular tourist destination, especially during spring break and the winter holidays. Booking early ensures that we have the specific vehicle size you need available for your group. However, we understand that last-minute trips happen. Our team is available 24/7 at 863-213-3575 to try and accommodate short-notice requests whenever possible.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
At Charter Bus Rental Company Clearwater, we actively track the flight numbers you provide at the time of booking. If your flight is delayed, our dispatch team adjusts the driver's schedule accordingly to ensure they are there when you actually land. There is no need to stress about losing your reservation due to airline delays. We include a standard grace period in our wait times, and we stay in communication with you to ensure a smooth pickup regardless of when you arrive.
Can you accommodate groups with a large amount of luggage or golf clubs?
Absolutely. One of the primary advantages of renting a full-size charter bus or a minibus is the ample storage space. Our 56-passenger motorcoaches feature spacious undercarriage luggage bays that can easily hold suitcases for every passenger, as well as oversized items like golf clubs, musical instruments, or trade show materials. If you have an unusually large amount of gear, please let our reservation specialists know when you call so we can ensure we match you with the correct vehicle type.
Do your buses have child safety seats for airport transfers?
While charter buses are one of the most comfortable forms of transportation on the road, they are not equipped with child seating accommodations. However, our vehicles offer a comfortable environment for children, and families are welcome to bring their own seating arrangements if needed. If you plan to bring car seats, please inform our reservation team at 863-213-3575 so we can ensure the bus you rent has the proper seat belt configurations to secure your child's seat safely.
