Services · Airport transportationAnacortes Airport Shuttle provides private, pre-arranged airport transportation between Skagit County, Whidbey Island, and Sea-Tac (SEA), Paine Field (PAE), and Bellingham International (BLI). Every reservation books the whole vehicle for one party, flight tracking is included, and pickup times are calculated backwards from your departure rather than from a timetable.
Distances shown from Anacortes. Fares from every other pickup town are on the routes page.
| Airport | Code | From Anacortes | Drive time | Sedan from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Seattle–Tacoma International | SEA | 90 mi | 90–120 min | $300 |
| Paine Field, Everett | PAE | 60 mi | 65–85 min | $250 |
| Bellingham International | BLI | 48 mi | 50–65 min | $150 |
All prices are starting fares for the vehicle class named. Your exact total depends on your pickup address, vehicle class, and any add-ons — request a quote to see every class before you book.
We work backwards from your departure, not forwards from a fixed schedule.
Give us the flight number and departure time rather than a guessed pickup time. We calculate the rest.
Timed against real traffic patterns for your day and hour, with buffer for bag drop and security.
Within 24 hours you get your driver's name, contact number, vehicle, and plate number.
Your driver contacts you 30 to 60 minutes ahead so there is no waiting at a window.
No shared passengers and no detours between your door and the terminal.
Delivered to your airline's departure door rather than a central shuttle bay.
Departures are a planning problem. Arrivals are a reliability problem, and they are where most ground transportation falls apart.
Your flight lands late, or early, or you sit on a taxiway for forty minutes. A driver working from your original scheduled time is either gone or charging you for the wait. We track the flight instead, and the pickup moves with it — there is nothing for you to call about and nothing to rebook.
Add meet-and-greet and your driver is inside at baggage claim with a name sign, which for a late-night arrival with luggage and children is worth considerably more than it costs.
Arrivals
Provide the flight number and we watch it. Delays and early arrivals are absorbed on our end rather than yours.
Your driver handles the bags at pickup and at the terminal. Vehicles are sized to your declared luggage count.
We never add another booking to your ride. No shared seats, no additional stops, no route detours.
Taxes, airport fees, and tolls on the booked route are part of the quoted fare.
Gratuity, child car seats, pet transport, and meet-and-greet are optional extras you select yourself.
A 4:00 AM pickup is priced identically to a midday one. Pre-dawn departures are among our most common bookings.
The most common booking error is sizing on passenger count alone. A family of four with six checked bags needs an SUV, not a mini van.
| Vehicle | Passengers | Luggage | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Sedan | 2 | 2 | Solo and couple travel, best value |
| Premium Sedan | 3 | 3 | Executive and corporate travel |
| Mini Van | 4 | 4 | Families, easiest for car seats |
| Luxury SUV | 6 | 6 | Our most requested airport vehicle |
| Ford Transit Van | 10 | 10 | Corporate teams and group travel |
| Mercedes Sprinter Van | 14 | 14 | Large parties and cruise groups |
At least 24 hours, and considerably earlier for pre-dawn departures, summer travel, holiday weekends, and cruise sailing days. Advance booking is what lets us guarantee both the vehicle class and the pickup time.
We track your flight when you provide the number at booking and adjust the pickup automatically. There is no need to call us from the plane or rebook on arrival.
We work backwards from your departure. From Anacortes, a 10:00 AM flight typically means a 6:30 AM pickup; from Mount Vernon it is closer to 7:00 AM. We confirm the exact time when you book.
Pre-arranged car service uses a different area from the rideshare app lot, and your driver sends exact instructions on travel day. With the meet-and-greet add-on they wait inside at baggage claim with a name sign.
No. Every reservation is private and exclusive to your party, with no additional stops between your pickup and your destination.
No. The fare is the same at 4:00 AM as at 2:00 PM. There is no surge pricing at any hour.
Yes, as a paid add-on selected at checkout. Choose the seat type and quantity when booking so the seat is installed before pickup.
It depends on your route. Bellingham is 48 miles from Anacortes against Sea-Tac's 90 and costs considerably less to reach, so if Alaska or Allegiant fly your destination from BLI it is usually the better choice. Paine Field is worth the same check.
