A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Flying into Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB)
Daytona Beach International Airport (700 Catalina Dr, Daytona Beach, FL 32114) is the most convenient option for travelers looking to land right in the heart of the action. Located literally adjacent to the Daytona International Speedway, landing here offers one of the most spectacular approaches in aviation. While it is a smaller airport compared to Orlando, it offers a stress-free experience that many groups prefer. However, “smaller” doesn’t mean you won’t need a plan for ground transportation, especially if you are traveling with a group of 10 or more.
When you book a private shuttle with Charter Bus Rental Company Daytona Beach, we handle the logistics of the commercial lane for you. Unlike taxis that line up or rideshares that require you to navigate to specific zones with your luggage, your charter bus or minibus will be coordinated to meet you curbside at the designated commercial vehicle pickup area outside of the baggage claim. Your driver will monitor your flight status to ensure that whether you arrive early or face delays, your ride is ready when you are.
For groups heading to the Ocean Center for conventions or beachfront hotels like the Hard Rock Hotel Daytona Beach or the Hilton Daytona Beach Oceanfront Resort, the drive from DAB is incredibly short—usually under 15 minutes. This allows you to maximize your time on the sand or in the boardroom. Our vehicles are equipped with undercarriage storage, which is vital for groups carrying heavy luggage, racing gear, or presentation materials that simply won’t fit in a standard Uber XL.
Orlando International Airport (MCO) Transfers
While DAB is the closest option, many groups choose to fly into Orlando International Airport (1 Jeff Fuqua Blvd, Orlando, FL 32827) due to the sheer volume of flight options and often lower fares. MCO is one of the busiest airports in the country, located approximately 70 miles southwest of Daytona Beach. The drive typically takes between an hour to an hour and a half, depending heavily on the traffic along Interstate 4 (I-4).
This is where Charter Bus Rental Company Daytona Beach becomes essential. I-4 is notorious for traffic congestion, construction delays, and tourist volume. Asking your group members to navigate this highway in rental cars after a long flight is a recipe for stress. Instead, let a driver handle the Florida highways while your group relaxes in a climate-controlled cabin. We offer efficient pickup services at both Terminal A, Terminal B, and the new Terminal C at MCO.
We can arrange for your bus to stage in the commercial holding lots and pull up to the curb once your group has gathered their bags. This “meet and greet” style service ensures no one gets lost in the massive MCO complex. Once aboard, your group can utilize onboard WiFi to check emails, power outlets to charge devices, and reclining seats to nap during the ride to the coast. Whether you are heading straight to the Daytona Beach Bandshell for a concert or checking into a condo in Ormond Beach, we provide a seamless bridge between Orlando and the coast.
Sanford International Airport (SFB) Shuttle Services
For budget-conscious groups or those flying via Allegiant Air, Orlando Sanford International Airport (1200 Red Cleveland Blvd, Sanford, FL 32773) is a fantastic alternative. Located about 40 miles southwest of Daytona Beach, SFB creates a middle-ground solution that is closer than MCO but often cheaper than DAB. The drive from Sanford to Daytona Beach usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour via I-4 East.
Charter Bus Rental Company Daytona Beach services SFB regularly. Because this airport is smaller and more user-friendly than MCO, the pickup process is swift. The drivers can meet your group curbside outside of the baggage claim area. This is a popular option for youth sports teams traveling for tournaments at the Daytona Beach Golf Club or spectator groups heading to the Speedway. A 56-passenger charter bus is perfect for these transfers, allowing the entire team to ride together, build camaraderie, and store all athletic equipment securely in the bays beneath the bus. Don’t worry about fitting hockey sticks, baseball bags, or surfboards into a trunk; we have the space you need.
Private Aviation and FBO Transfers
Daytona Beach is a hub for aviation enthusiasts and corporate VIPs, largely due to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and the major racing events that bring in team owners and sponsors. If your group is flying privately into Daytona Beach via Fixed Base Operators (FBOs) such as Sheltair (563 Pearl Harbor Dr, Daytona Beach, FL 32114) or Yelvington Jet Aviation, we offer executive transportation to match your level of service.
For these VIP transfers, we often recommend our sleek sprinter vans or executive minibuses. These vehicles offer a more intimate setting with high-end amenities like leather seating and tinted windows for privacy. Your driver will be waiting on the tarmac (where permitted) or immediately distinct at the FBO entrance to whisk your executives or VIP guests to the Daytona International Speedway, the Shores Resort & Spa, or private residences in Ponce Inlet.
Connecting to Cruises at Port Canaveral
Many groups combine a stay in Daytona Beach with a cruise departing from Port Canaveral. Located about an hour south of Daytona, Port Canaveral is a major launch point for Carnival, Disney, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian cruise lines. If you are flying into DAB or MCO for a few days of fun at Daytona Beach before setting sail, Charter Bus Rental Company Daytona Beach can facilitate the transfer to the port.
Parking at the cruise terminal can be expensive (often $20+ per day per vehicle). By booking a charter bus rental, you can drop your group off right at the terminal entrance with their luggage, bypassing the need for parking shuttles or long walks. We can coordinate a drop-off at your specific cruise terminal and arrange for a pickup when you return, taking you back to the airport for your flight home. This door-to-door service is particularly popular for family reunions and destination weddings setting sail after a beachside ceremony in Daytona.
Transport for Daytona 500 & Bike Week
During major events like the Daytona 500, the Coke Zero Sugar 400, or Bike Week, the population of Daytona Beach swells, and traffic becomes extremely heavy. International Speedway Boulevard (ISB) becomes a parking lot. During these peak times, relying on rideshares from the airport is risky due to massive surge pricing and limited availability. Rental cars are often sold out months in advance.
Charter Bus Rental Company Daytona Beach is your strategic advantage during race weeks. We have access to designated bus lanes and drop-off zones at the Speedway that passenger cars cannot use. By booking your airport transfer and daily event shuttle with us, you ensure your group actually makes it to the green flag on time. We can pick you up from DAB, MCO, or SFB and take you to your hotel, and then provide daily shuttles to the track. For corporate sponsors bringing clients to the race, a wrapped charter bus also serves as an excellent mobile billboard and hospitality suite on wheels.

Frequently Asked Questions About Daytona Beach Airport Transportation
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We understand that air travel can be unpredictable. When you book your airport transfer with Charter Bus Rental Company Daytona Beach, we ask for your flight information so we 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. There is no need to panic; simply keep us updated if your flight number changes, and we will handle the rest. Your driver will be waiting for you, not the other way around.
How much luggage can a charter bus hold?
One of the biggest advantages of a full-size charter bus rental is the storage capacity. A standard 56-passenger motorcoach features massive undercarriage luggage bays that can easily accommodate one large suitcase and one carry-on bag per passenger. If you are a sports team traveling with extra equipment bags, oversized gear, or media production cases, simply let our reservation specialist know in advance. We can ensure you get a bus with maximum bay space. For minibuses, storage is more limited, usually accommodating light luggage, so please be accurate with your passenger and bag counts when booking.
Can you pick us up at MCO and drop us off at multiple hotels in Daytona?
Absolutely! We offer fully customizable itineraries. If your group is arriving at Orlando International Airport but staying at three different hotels along Atlantic Avenue in Daytona Beach, we can easily execute a multi-stop drop-off. Just provide us with the list of hotels and the number of passengers getting off at each when you book. We can also handle the reverse for departures, picking up at multiple locations before heading to the airport.
Is there WiFi on the bus?
Yes, most of our modern charter buses and minibuses come equipped with onboard WiFi and power outlets. This is perfect for corporate groups who need to stay connected, students who want to stream music, or travelers who want to update their flight status. Please confirm the availability of these specific amenities with your reservation specialist at the time of booking to ensure your specific bus is equipped with the features you desire.
How far in advance should I book my airport shuttle?
We always recommend booking as soon as you have your flight details confirmed. For standard travel dates, 3 to 6 months in advance is ideal to secure the best pricing and vehicle availability. However, if you are traveling during peak Daytona Beach events—such as the Daytona 500 in February, Bike Week in March, or Spring Break—we highly recommend booking 6 to 9 months in advance. These events draw hundreds of thousands of visitors, and charter bus availability in the region can sell out quickly.
