Clayton Airport Shuttles at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU)

It takes just 45 minutes via US-70 West and I-40 West to travel between downtown Clayton and Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU), and having a private shuttle makes the 30-mile trip completely stress-free! Since curbside idling isn't permitted at RDU, your driver will stage at the airport's Cell Phone Lot at 1000 Trade Drive until your whole group has collected their bags from the carousels and is ready to load. From there, your charter bus or minibus will pull right up to the designated commercial charter bus zones outside Terminal 1 or the lower-level arrivals curb at Terminal 2, so everyone boards together without dragging heavy suitcases across the parking garage! Plus, we also coordinate seamless transfers to regional hubs like Fayetteville Regional Airport (FAY) down I-95 and Pitt-Greenville Airport (PGV), giving your group guaranteed ground transportation wherever you fly.

Your team can hop aboard at convenient park-and-ride hubs along US-70 Business or near Main Street in Clayton, then relax with onboard WiFi, climate control, and reclining seats while a driver handles the rush-hour bottlenecks at the I-40 and I-440 split. We can customize shift-change loops between off-site employee parking lots and terminal gates, ensuring your staff arrives on time, rested, and ready for their shift!

Private Tour Buses for Long Layovers in Clayton

With a private event bus rental waiting for you at the terminal, a long layover or a delayed evening flight turns into an effortless group outing in Clayton and the Research Triangle!

Head straight into downtown Clayton to grab a bite along East Main Street, catch a matinee performance at The Clayton Center, or enjoy a tasting tour at Deep River Brewing Company on West Main Street before heading back for your connecting flight. You set the exact pickup and return schedule, and your bus stays with your luggage the entire time so you make it back to security with plenty of time to spare!

These are just standard minimums. Outside trip costs like and parking are paid separately.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clayton Airport Transfers

Not sure what you need? Let us help!

What is Claytoncharterbuscompany.com, and do you own the buses?

No, and that's the whole point! Claytoncharterbuscompany.com is a bus rental comparison website, not a local bus company, so you're never limited to just one fleet or stuck with whatever a single operator has parked in its lot. When you fill out our quick form, you compare party buses, minibuses, charter buses, and sprinter vans from one of the largest networks of independent bus companies in Clayton and all of North Carolina, book online through one of America's largest national booking platforms, and ride with a local provider!

How quickly can I see airport shuttle prices, and do I need an account?

You can see live availability, interior photos, and charter bus pricing in under 30 seconds—with no account needed! Just enter your pickup location, travel date, destination, and passenger count once in our online quote tool. Because multiple independent operators in our network compete for your business, you get great rates even during peak holiday travel seasons. Plus, your quotes are sent straight to your text and email so you can easily review them with your group!

What happens if our flight into RDU is delayed or we need a same-day bus?

Last-minute schedule changes are no problem when you book through Claytoncharterbuscompany.com! Because you're tapping into a massive statewide network of bus companies rather than a single garage, you can even find and book same-day airport shuttle rentals when flights get canceled or rerouted. After you book online, our confirmation department contacts you to verify your flight details and itinerary so your driver is ready when you land!

Which buses are best for airport transfers with lots of luggage?

For large groups with heavy checked bags, golf clubs, or equipment cases, a full-size 56-passenger charter bus is the best fit because it features spacious undercarriage luggage bays beneath the bus plus overhead racks inside. For mid-sized groups of 15 to 35 travelers with standard carry-ons, 30-passenger minibuses and 35-passenger minibuses offer plenty of cabin storage and cushioned seating. Smaller groups of 10 to 14 passengers can easily fit their bags in the rear cargo area of a sprinter van!

Where does our group meet the charter bus driver at Raleigh-Durham International Airport?

Once every traveler in your group has claimed their luggage at RDU, you'll head to the designated commercial bus loading zones outside Terminal 1 or the lower-level arrivals curb at Terminal 2. Your driver will wait in the RDU Cell Phone Lot on Trade Drive and pull up to the curb as soon as your group is gathered and ready to board!
