A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Effortless Group Travel to Ontario International Airport (ONT)
For residents of Fontana and the surrounding San Bernardino County, Ontario International Airport (2500 E Airport Dr, Ontario, CA 91761) is the crown jewel of convenience. Located just 10 miles west of downtown Fontana via I-10 W, ONT is the preferred gateway for locals looking to avoid the chaos of Los Angeles. However, even a short drive can become complicated when moving 20, 30, or 50 people. Charter Bus Fontana offers seamless shuttle services directly to Terminals 2 and 4, ensuring your group bypasses the parking structures entirely.
When you book a shuttle to ONT with us, you get curbside service. For departures, your driver will pull up to the designated commercial vehicle zones at your specific terminal, allowing your group to unload luggage from the undercarriage bays right at the check-in doors. No hiking from Economy Lot E with heavy bags in the California heat! For arrivals, we track your flight status to ensure we are there when you land. Once you’ve gathered your baggage, your bus will be waiting in the designated ground transportation area, ready to whisk you away to your Fontana hotel, the Auto Club Speedway, or straight home.
Because ONT is our "home turf," the drivers are intimately familiar with the traffic patterns along Archive Avenue and Haven Avenue, ensuring that even during the rush hour crush on the San Bernardino Freeway, we utilize the best routes to keep you on schedule.
Navigating LAX Transfers from the Inland Empire
While we love our local airport, we know that international flights and certain domestic connections often require a trip to Los Angeles International Airport (1 World Way, Los Angeles, CA 90045). The trek from Fontana to LAX is roughly 60 miles, but anyone who lives in the Inland Empire knows that 60 miles can easily turn into a two-to-three-hour ordeal depending on traffic on the SR-60 or I-10. This is where Charter Bus Fontana becomes absolutely essential.
Don't split your group into five different cars and risk someone getting lost or stuck in a bottleneck near Downtown LA. A private charter bus rental transforms that grueling drive into a relaxing pre-trip experience. Your group can stretch out in reclining seats, charge their devices using onboard power outlets, and use the bus’s Wi-Fi to check emails or stream entertainment while a driver handles the stop-and-go traffic.
LAX has very specific rules for charter bus operations to keep traffic moving. Your Charter Bus Fontana driver knows exactly where to go. We utilize the lower level (Arrivals) for pickups and the upper level (Departures) for drop-offs, strictly adhering to the color-coded zones designated for private buses. By booking with us, you avoid the confusion of the LAX-it lot and the stress of navigating the central terminal loop. We handle the logistics so you can focus on your flight.
Private Shuttles to John Wayne Airport (SNA) and Beyond
Sometimes your itinerary takes you to Orange County or other regional hubs. Charter Bus Fontana provides comprehensive service to John Wayne Airport (18601 Airport Way, Santa Ana, CA 92707), a popular choice for groups heading to Disneyland or events in Anaheim and Irvine. Located about 45 miles southwest of Fontana via the CA-91 W and CA-55 S, SNA is a great alternative for domestic travel.
Furthermore, we service Hollywood Burbank Airport (2627 N Hollywood Way, Burbank, CA 91505) for those headed to the studios, and San Bernardino International Airport (105 N Leland Norton Way, San Bernardino, CA 92408), which is increasingly popular for general aviation and cargo but is beginning to see passenger service expansion. No matter which runway you are aiming for, our fleet is ready.
Traveling to SNA or Burbank often involves navigating complex freeway interchanges. The drivers know how to handle the 91 Express Lanes and the various toll roads if necessary (and authorized by your group) to expedite your travel. We ensure that whether you are flying out of "The OC" or the Valley, your ground transportation is the most reliable part of your journey.
Why Choose a Charter Bus for Airport Transportation?
Choosing a charter bus for airport transfers isn't just about luxury—it's about logistics, cost-efficiency, and peace of mind. When you rely on rideshare apps for a group of 50 people, you are looking at booking at least 10 to 12 XL vehicles. The cost of surge pricing during peak hours, combined with the tip for each driver, can skyrocket instantly. Not to mention, the logistical nightmare of ensuring all 12 cars arrive at the same time is nearly impossible.
With Charter Bus Fontana, you pay a transparent, upfront price for a single vehicle that accommodates everyone. We offer:
- Reliability: We operate on your schedule, not a bus route schedule. We are there when you need us, 24/7/365.
- Comfort: After a long flight, the last thing you want is to be cramped in a backseat. Our buses offer ample legroom, climate control to beat the Fontana heat, and onboard restrooms on full-sized coaches.
- Coordination: We serve as a central point of contact. One call to 840-237-2990 sorts out the ride for every single person in your group.
Custom Itineraries for Corporate Flyers and Flight Crews
Business travel requires a level of precision that Charter Bus Fontana is proud to deliver. We frequently work with corporate clients in the Fontana and Rancho Cucamonga area to shuttle teams to conferences, meetings, and airports. If you have executives flying into ONT for a meeting at the Fontana Community Center or a site visit at the California Steel Industries, a private shuttle sets a professional tone from the moment they land.
We also specialize in transportation for airline flight crews. We understand that layovers are short and rest is precious. We provide prompt, efficient shuttles between the tarmac and crew hotels in Fontana, Ontario, or Riverside. Our reservation specialists can build recurring shuttle contracts for businesses that have frequent travel needs, ensuring a consistent, high-quality experience every time. With amenities like tray tables and Wi-Fi, your team can turn the drive into a mobile office, finalizing presentations or responding to emails before they even reach the TSA checkpoint.
Luggage Solutions for Long-Haul Travelers
One of the biggest headaches of group air travel is luggage. If you are a sports team traveling with equipment bags, a band with instruments, or a family reunion group with gifts and suitcases, standard cars simply cannot cope. A minibus might fit the people, but where do the bags go?
Charter Bus Fontana has the solution. Our full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches come equipped with massive undercarriage storage bays. These compartments can easily hold a suitcase and a carry-on for every single passenger on board. Inside the cabin, overhead parcel racks provide safe storage for backpacks, purses, and laptop bags, keeping the aisle clear and your legroom unobstructed. Even our smaller minibuses and sprinter vans are selected with luggage capacity in mind. When you book, simply tell our reservation specialist about your luggage needs, and we will match you with the perfect vehicle to ensure nothing—and no one—gets left behind.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fontana Airport Transportation
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We understand that air travel is unpredictable. When you book an airport pickup with Charter Bus Fontana, we ask for your flight information so we can track your arrival status in real-time. If your flight is delayed, we will adjust the driver's schedule accordingly to ensure they are there when you land. We include a grace period in our airport transfer packages to account for minor delays in baggage claim or customs. Communication is key; as long as we have your flight details, we will be there waiting for you.
How much luggage can we bring on a charter bus?
On a standard 56-passenger motorcoach, there is ample room for virtually any amount of luggage a group of that size would have for air travel. The undercarriage bays are huge and designed to hold large suitcases, sports equipment, or musical instruments. Generally, each passenger can bring one large checked bag and one carry-on item. If you are renting a minibus or a sprinter van, luggage space is more limited. Please be sure to let our reservation specialist know exactly how much luggage you anticipate so we can recommend the correct vehicle size. If you have excessive equipment, we may recommend sizing up to ensure everything fits comfortably.
Is the cost of the bus rental per person or per hour?
At Charter Bus Fontana, we rent the vehicle, not the seat. This means you pay a flat rate for the bus rental, which makes it incredibly cost-effective for larger groups. The price is calculated based on the duration of the trip (hourly) or a flat transfer rate for simple point-to-point airport drops, plus mileage for longer distances. Splitting the cost of a single charter bus among 50 passengers often comes out to be significantly cheaper than buying individual tickets for a shuttle service or paying for 15+ rideshares.
Are your buses ADA accessible?
Yes, absolutely. Charter Bus Fontana is committed to providing inclusive transportation for all travelers. We have ADA-compliant charter buses available upon request at no additional cost. These buses feature wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and designated securement areas for wheelchairs. Please let us know at the time of booking—ideally at least 48 hours in advance—if you require an ADA-accessible bus so we can ensure the specific vehicle is assigned to your route.
