A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Seamless Group Transport to Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU)
Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) is the primary gateway for visitors traveling to Apex, located just about 15 to 20 miles north of the town center. While it is a convenient drive, navigating the pick-up and drop-off zones with a large group can be chaotic without a plan. When you book with Charter Bus Rental Company Apex, you bypass the stress of the "cell phone lot" and the confusion of splitting your group into five different taxis.
For departures, the drivers will pick your group up from your Apex hotel, office, or meeting point—whether you are near Beaver Creek Commons or historic Salem Street—and transport you directly to the curbside check-in at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2. We track local traffic patterns on I-540 and US-1 to ensure we leave enough buffer time so you never have to rush through security.
For arrivals, we monitor your flight status in real-time. If your flight is delayed, we adjust our schedule so we are there when you land, not when you were supposed to land. The drivers are familiar with RDU’s commercial vehicle commercial zones. We will coordinate a specific curb number for pickup, typically located on the lower level arrivals curb, allowing your group to step out of baggage claim and straight onto a waiting, air-conditioned bus. With ample undercarriage storage, every suitcase, golf bag, and piece of equipment is stowed safely, leaving you plenty of legroom to relax after your flight.
Private Jet and Executive Transfers at Raleigh Exec Jetport
For corporate executives and VIP groups flying privately, the Raleigh Exec Jetport (KTTA) in nearby Sanford is a popular alternative to RDU, located just a short drive down US-1 from Apex. This airport is a hub for business aviation and recreational flyers who want to avoid the hustle of major commercial terminals. Charter Bus Rental Company Apex offers discreet, high-end shuttle services specifically designed for executive travel.
We can provide sleek sprinter vans or executive minibuses that can meet your aircraft right on the tarmac or at the main terminal entrance. The drivers understand the level of professionalism required for corporate clients. We can transport your executive team directly to meetings at the sprawling Research Triangle Park, to accommodations at the Comfort Inn Apex, or to a corporate retreat at nearby golf courses.
The benefit of using a charter bus for executive transfers is the ability to conduct business on the road. Our executive vehicles can be equipped with WiFi and power outlets, allowing your team to prep for presentations, check emails, or hold a debriefing session immediately upon landing. We handle the driving along US-1 so you can focus on business.
Why Choose a Charter Bus for Apex Airport Transfers?
Traveling with a group presents unique challenges that individual travel does not. You have luggage logistics, varying arrival times, and the ever-present risk of someone getting lost or separated. Choosing Charter Bus Rental Company Apex for your airport transfer eliminates these variables. Instead of hoping there are enough rideshare drivers available during peak hours—and paying exorbitant surge pricing—you lock in your rate and your ride in advance.
Comfort is another major factor. After a long flight, the last thing you want is to be squeezed into the back of a compact car. Our charter buses and minibuses offer reclining seats, climate control (essential during those humid North Carolina summers), and onboard entertainment systems. For larger groups, we offer full-size motorcoaches with onboard restrooms, minimizing the need for stops once we hit the road.
Furthermore, safety is our top priority. The drivers know the Apex and Triangle area roads inside and out. Whether it’s dealing with detours along NC-55 or managing traffic as you merge onto I-40, a driver takes care of it all so you can ride with confidence. We handle the navigation, the parking fees, and the traffic, giving you a seamless door-to-door experience.
Corporate Airport Shuttles for Research Triangle Park (RTP)
Apex is an integral part of the Research Triangle, serving as a residential and business hub for many professionals working in Research Triangle Park (RTP). If your company is flying in talent for a conference, training seminar, or quarterly review, rely on Charter Bus Rental Company Apex for efficient corporate shuttles .
We can organize a shuttle circuit that picks up employees from RDU and transports them to hotels in Apex, such as the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Apex - Raleigh, and then shuttles them daily to offices in RTP. This ensures that your out-of-town colleagues never have to worry about renting a car or navigating unfamiliar highways. It also guarantees that everyone arrives at your meetings at the same time, ready to work.
Our fleet is diverse enough to handle any corporate group size. A 15-passenger sprinter van is perfect for a board of directors, while a 56-passenger motorcoach can easily handle a full department flying in for a summit. With amenities like overhead storage for briefcases and laptops, your team can keep their valuables close while their luggage is stored securely beneath the bus.
Wedding Guest Arrival Logistics in Apex
Apex is home to some of the most charming wedding venues in the Triangle, including The Oaks at Salem and the nearby Highgrove Estate. If you are hosting a wedding with many out-of-town guests, providing an airport shuttle is a thoughtful touch that sets the tone for a wonderful weekend. Guests traveling from across the state may be unfamiliar with the area, and coordinating rental cars can be an added expense and stressor they don't need.
Charter Bus Rental Company Apex can create a custom shuttle schedule for your wedding weekend. We can pick up groups of family and friends from RDU and take them directly to their hotel blocks in Apex or Cary. We can also provide return trips to the airport after the farewell brunch.
By consolidating your guests into one or two vehicles, you simplify the arrival process. We can even play a personalized welcome message or wedding playlist over the bus’s PA system to get the celebration started the moment they step off the plane. Let us handle the logistics of flight tracking and terminal pickups so you can focus on the final details of your big day.
Long-Distance Airport Transfers to Charlotte (CLT) and Greensboro (GSO)
While RDU is the closest airport, sometimes flight availability or pricing makes Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) or Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO) a better option for large groups. However, Charlotte is about 2.5 hours away, and Greensboro is over an hour away. That is a long drive to make in a rental car convoy.
Charter Bus Rental Company Apex offers long-distance airport transfer services to connect Apex with these regional hubs. If your group finds a better flight deal out of Charlotte, we will be there to pick you up. The ride back to Apex becomes a comfortable journey where your group can nap, socialize, or watch movies on onboard TV monitors. We handle the highway driving on I-85 and I-40, making a long commute feel short and relaxing. This service is particularly popular for sports teams , school bands, and large tour groups where flight logistics are complex.
We ensure that your long-distance transfer includes plenty of storage for extended-stay luggage. With a charter bus, the ride from the airport becomes part of the trip itself, rather than a chore to be endured.
Custom Itineraries: From the Tarmac to the "Peak of Good Living"
Your trip doesn't end once you leave the airport terminal. One of the biggest advantages of booking with Charter Bus Rental Company Apex is the flexibility to create a custom itinerary immediately upon arrival. Are you landing early and can't check into your hotel yet? We can take your group straight to lunch at a local favorite like Scratch Kitchen and Taproom in downtown Apex, or for a stroll through the Apex Community Park to stretch your legs.
Perhaps your group needs to make a stop at a grocery store to stock up for the week, or you want to do a quick sightseeing tour of the Jordan Lake State Recreation Area before heading to your accommodations. With a private bus rental, you call the shots. You aren't beholden to a hotel shuttle's fixed route or a rideshare driver who needs to pick up their next fare. The bus is yours for the duration of your booking.
We serve all surrounding areas, including Holly Springs, Cary, Morrisville, and Fuquay-Varina. No matter where your final destination is relative to the airport, we will map out the most efficient route to get you there. We take pride in welcoming visitors to our community and showing them why Apex is consistently ranked as one of the best places to live (and visit!).

Frequently Asked Questions About Apex Airport Transportation
What happens if our flight is delayed?
We understand that air travel can be unpredictable. When you book an airport transfer with Charter Bus Rental Company Apex, we ask for your flight information so our dispatch team can track your arrival in real-time. If your flight is delayed, we adjust the driver's schedule accordingly to ensure they are there when you land. You will not be left stranded; we communicate with you to ensure a seamless pickup regardless of delays.
How much luggage can a charter bus hold?
One of the main benefits of a full-size charter bus is the storage capacity. A standard 56-passenger motorcoach features spacious undercarriage luggage bays that can typically accommodate one large suitcase per passenger, along with overhead bins in the cabin for carry-on items. If you have an excessive amount of equipment—such as band instruments, sports gear, or trade show materials—please let our reservation specialists know in advance so we can ensure we match you with the correct vehicle size.
Does the bus pick us up at the curb?
At Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) and most major airports, there are specific designated zones for charter buses and commercial vehicles. We cannot pick up in the standard passenger car lanes due to airport regulations. However, these commercial zones are typically located on the curbside of the baggage claim levels (usually the lower level). Your driver will communicate the exact zone number or location to your group leader upon arrival to ensure you find the bus easily.
Is it cheaper to rent a bus or use rideshares for a large group?
For large groups, renting a charter bus is often more cost-effective and certainly more convenient than using rideshares. When you factor in the cost of multiple Ubers or Lyfts—especially during surge pricing times or peak travel hours—plus the tip for each driver, the costs add up quickly. Additionally, rideshares separate your group and offer no guarantee that everyone will arrive at the same time. A charter bus offers a fixed cost that can be split among passengers, keeping the group together and providing a higher level of comfort and reliability.
How far in advance should I book my airport shuttle?
We always recommend booking as soon as you have your flight details confirmed. For peak travel times—such as holidays, spring break, or major local events like graduations at nearby universities—we suggest booking at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure vehicle availability. However, we can often accommodate last-minute requests depending on our fleet availability. Call us 24/7 to check availability for your specific dates.
