A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Navigating Indianapolis International Airport (IND) with a Group
As the primary commercial hub for the region, Indianapolis International Airport (IND) serves millions of passengers annually. Located just 15 minutes southwest of downtown at 7800 Col. H. Weir Cook Memorial Dr, Indianapolis, IN 46241, it is consistently ranked as one of the best airports in North America. However, for group leaders, navigating the Ground Transportation Center (GTC) can still be tricky without a plan. When you book with Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis, we handle the logistics for you.
Arrivals: Once your group has collected their bags at the baggage claim on the lower level of the Colonel H. Weir Cook Terminal, you won't have to wander far. The drivers coordinate closely with your group leader to meet you at the designated charter bus pickup zones located within the Ground Transportation Center just outside the terminal. Instead of hauling luggage across long parking garages, your group can load their bags directly into the undercarriage storage of your private charter bus and settle into reclining seats immediately.
Departures: Departing is just as easy. Your driver will drop your group off curbside at the departures level, allowing for easy access to ticketing and security. We recommend scheduling your bus to arrive at least two hours before domestic flights to ensure everyone has ample time to check bags and get through security checkpoints.
Private Shuttles for Regional and Executive Airports
For corporate executives, private tour groups, or sports teams flying via private charter, the major commercial terminals aren't always the entry point. Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis also provides high-end transportation services to the region's general aviation airports. We can arrange for a sleek sprinter van or a luxury minibus to meet your plane directly on the tarmac (where permitted) or at the FBO entrance.
Eagle Creek Airpark (KEYE): Located just minutes from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway at 4101 Dandy Trail, Indianapolis, IN 46254, this is a popular choice for race teams and VIPs. The drivers are familiar with the layout and can ensure a discreet and swift transfer to your hotel or the track.
Indianapolis Executive Airport (TYQ): Situated in Zionsville at 11329 E State Rd 32, Zionsville, IN 46077, this airport serves many business travelers heading to the north side of Indy. Whether you need a shuttle to a corporate headquarters in Carmel or a hotel in Fishers, we have the perfect vehicle for your executive team.
Mount Comfort Airport (KMQJ): Located east of the city at 3867 N Aviation Way, Greenfield, IN 46140, this is another excellent option for private charters. No matter which runway you land on, Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis will be there with the engine running and the A/C blasting.
Corporate Airport Transportation to Downtown Indy
Indianapolis is a major convention city, and time is money when you are here for business. If you are bringing a team to the Indiana Convention Center (100 S Capitol Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46225) or a meeting at a downtown hotel like the JW Marriott Indianapolis (10 S West St, Indianapolis, IN 46204), relying on rideshare apps can result in split groups and surge pricing. With a corporate charter bus rental, your entire team travels together, allowing for last-minute briefings or simply a moment of relaxation before the work begins.
Our fleet includes vehicles equipped with productivity-boosting amenities. Request a bus with high-speed WiFi and individual power outlets so your team can send emails or finish presentations during the transfer from IND to the Wholesale District. We can also organize ongoing shuttle routes between your hotel and the convention center for multi-day events, ensuring no one is late for a keynote speech. Impress your clients and take care of your employees with professional, reliable airport transfers that reflect the quality of your business.
Sports Team & Fan Logistics: From the Tarmac to the Turf
Indianapolis is the amateur sports capital of the world and home to iconic professional venues. Whether you are an NCAA team flying in for a tournament or a group of die-hard Colts fans flying in for a game at Lucas Oil Stadium (500 S Capitol Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46225), equipment management is key. Standard airport taxis simply cannot accommodate hockey gear, football pads, or a dozen oversized luggage pieces.
When you rent a full-size 56-passenger charter bus from Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis, you gain access to massive undercarriage luggage bays perfect for storing sporting equipment, coolers, and banners. We provide transport for teams traveling to the Gainbridge Fieldhouse (125 S Pennsylvania St, Indianapolis, IN 46204) or the natatorium at IUPUI. Of course, for the biggest event of them all—the Indy 500—we offer specialized shuttles from the airport directly to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (4790 W 16th St, Indianapolis, IN 46222), helping you bypass the worst of the race-day traffic with a driver who knows the local routes.
University Shuttles: IU, Purdue, and Butler Transport
With several major universities within a short drive of Indianapolis, IND is the primary airport for thousands of students and visiting faculty. Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis offers reliable campus shuttle services for orientation weeks, Greek life events, and holiday breaks.
We regularly transport groups from the airport to Indiana University in Bloomington (approx. 50 miles south), Purdue University in West Lafayette (approx. 65 miles northwest), and Butler University (4600 Sunset Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46208) right in the city. Parents can rest easy knowing their students are traveling in a vehicle with a driver, rather than navigating highway driving on their own after a long flight. For visiting athletic teams or academic conferences, our airport-to-campus shuttles provide a seamless door-to-door experience.
Wedding Guest Shuttles for Out-of-Town Visitors
Your wedding day should be magical, not stressful. If you have guests flying in from all over the country, don't leave them to fend for themselves in an unfamiliar city. Provide a VIP experience with a private airport shuttle service dedicated to your wedding party. We can pick up your guests at IND and transport them directly to their hotels, whether they are staying at the historic Omni Severin Hotel (40 W Jackson Pl, Indianapolis, IN 46225) or the chic The Alexander (333 S Delaware St, Indianapolis, IN 46204).
Once your guests are settled, we can transition your airport shuttle into a wedding day shuttle, moving guests between the hotel, the ceremony, and the reception. This ensures everyone arrives on time and gets home safely after a night of celebration. From sprinter vans for the bridal party to full coaches for the guest list, we have the right vehicle to match your wedding style and budget.
Choose the Right Bus for Your Airport Transfer
At Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis, we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Your group is unique, and your vehicle should match your specific needs.
- Sprinter Vans (10-15 Passengers): Perfect for executive teams or families. These agile vehicles can navigate tight hotel driveways easily and offer a quick, luxurious ride from the airport.
- Minibuses (18-35 Passengers): Ideal for wedding parties, small corporate teams, or extended family reunions. These buses offer a balance of intimacy and space, often featuring overhead storage for carry-ons.
- Full-Size Charter Buses (56 Passengers): The ultimate solution for large groups, sports teams, and school trips. These motorcoaches feature cavernous undercarriage storage for heavy luggage, onboard restrooms for comfort, and reclining seats for relaxation.
No matter which vehicle you choose, you can request premium amenities to make the ride better. Ask for WiFi to check flight statuses, power outlets to charge phones before landing, and PA systems for group leaders to make announcements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Indianapolis Airport Transportation
Where will the bus pick us up at Indianapolis International Airport (IND)?
For most charter buses and large shuttles, the designated pickup area is the Ground Transportation Center (GTC). This is located on the first floor of the parking garage, just a short walk from the baggage claim area in the main terminal. When you book with Charter Bus Rental Company Indianapolis, we will provide you with your driver's contact information so you can coordinate the exact meeting moment once you have your luggage. For smaller vehicles like sprinter vans, curbside pickup may be available depending on current airport security regulations.
What happens if our flight is delayed?
We understand that air travel can be unpredictable. When you book your airport transfer with us, we ask for your flight information so we can track your arrival status in real-time. If your flight is delayed, we will adjust your driver's schedule accordingly to ensure they are there when you land. We include a grace period in our airport transfers to account for the time it takes to deplane and retrieve luggage. If you know of a significant change to your itinerary, simply call our 24/7 dispatch team at 317-210-2240.
Is there enough room for all our luggage?
Yes! One of the biggest advantages of renting a charter bus is the storage capacity. A full-size 56-passenger motorcoach features spacious undercarriage luggage bays that can easily accommodate one large suitcase and one carry-on item per passenger. Inside the cabin, there are overhead bins for personal items like backpacks and purses. If you are booking a minibus or sprinter van and have an excessive amount of luggage (like trade show equipment or sports gear), please let our reservation specialist know so we can recommend the appropriate vehicle size to ensure everything fits comfortably.
Can you take us to cities outside of Indianapolis?
Absolutely. While we are based in Indianapolis, our service area extends throughout the state of Indiana and the Midwest. We frequently provide airport transfers from IND to university towns like Bloomington (IU) and West Lafayette (Purdue), as well as neighboring cities like Fort Wayne, Evansville, and Louisville, KY. Whether you need a simple drop-off or a round-trip service that stays with you for a multi-day trip, we can accommodate your long-distance travel needs.
How far in advance should I book my airport shuttle?
We recommend booking your airport charter bus as soon as you have your flight details confirmed. For peak travel seasons (summer, holidays, and major Indianapolis events like the Indy 500 or large conventions), we suggest booking at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and the best pricing. However, we understand that last-minute trips happen. Our team is available 24/7, and we can often accommodate short-notice requests, so don't hesitate to call us even if your trip is just around the corner.
