Pricing depends on the type of bus, the day of the week, how many hours you need the vehicle, and the specific amenities on board.

You see a clear price estimate before you book, so there are no surprises.

Fill out one quick form and find the right airport shuttle for your group at Gerald R. Ford International Airport (GRR) (5500 44th St SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49512).
