Macomb, Illinois · Chauffeured transportation
Macomb Limo Service & Car Service
A car at the door in Macomb, and the miles handed to a uniformed chauffeur.
No airline airport sits inside an hour of Macomb, so every flight out of this city starts with a real drive. University visitors, hospital travel and families making the run to St. Louis are most of the work.

Private jets and charter
Private jet and charter flights near Macomb
Charter into this part of west central Illinois usually files for Quincy or Peoria, and both airports name the operator you will walk out through.
- 01
Charter arrivals meet the car at the FBO
Charter passengers leave through the operator’s building rather than an airline concourse, and that is where the car is.
- 02
Cases at the aircraft where the ramp allows
Bags go hold to trunk when the operator permits it, and hand to hand at the door when it does not.
- 03
Crew and passengers together
A hotel run for the crew and a campus run for the passengers sit on one reservation.
- 04
A Sprinter for the visiting party
Ten people and their cases ride in one vehicle. Larger groups take a coach.

Why be driven
Four reasons Macomb travelers hand over the keys
When the nearest airport is an hour away, the trip is really four drives, not one.
Nothing is parked for a week
An hour of driving normally ends with a week of parking fees. Being dropped at the doors removes both.
The 5 a.m. start is not yours
A morning departure out of Peoria or Quincy means leaving Macomb in the dark. The chauffeur does that part while you sleep.
Campus weekends move in convoys
Move-in, commencement and game weekends bring whole families in at once, and one vehicle beats four.
One figure for the whole vehicle
Macomb trips are quoted by the hour for the whole vehicle, with the minimum stated up front, so a group rides on one figure.
We prefer 72 hours’ notice, but call anytime. Short-notice trips depend on availability.
Popular runs from Macomb
The runs Macomb books most
Peoria and the Quad Cities take most of the departures at about an hour and a half, and St. Louis Lambert takes the trips that need a wider board.
We need the return flight too when it lands somewhere other than where you left.
More reading: choosing between the regional airports, the drive down to Lambert and what a charter bus costs.
A different airport on the way home is still one reservation.

What riders say
Three riders, three different runs
Executive Transportation saved the day after another bus company fell through last minute.
The scheduling process was seamless, and the timely pickup from Bloomington airport made my journey stress-free.
Our group of 7 needed a ride from Chicago O’Hare to Springfield. The vehicle was clean and comfortable.
Universities and hospitals bring visitors into McDonough County all year, which is what corporate airport transfers are for.
Campus weekends arrive in waves rather than all at once, and that is event transportation.
Macomb questions
What Macomb riders ask before they book
The answers use the calibrated drive times Macomb schedules are built from.
How much notice do you need for a car in Macomb?
Executive Transportation prefers about 72 hours’ notice for a Macomb airport run and closer to a week for a group of fifteen or more. A coordinator is reachable at any hour, and a late request comes down to what is unbooked.
Call (217) 523-5466 or request a quote.
Do you pick up at my door in Macomb?
Yes. Executive Transportation collects at the address you give anywhere in Macomb, from a house near campus to a residence hall, the hospital entrance or an office on the square. Your bags are taken at the door and set down at the terminal.
See how airport transportation works.
Which airport is closest to Macomb?
Southeast Iowa Regional at Burlington, code BRL, is about 58 miles and 1 hour 5 minutes from Macomb, with Quincy Regional about 1 hour 10. Peoria and the Quad Cities follow at about an hour and a half, and carry far more departures.
See the Burlington BRL car service page.
How long does it take to get from Macomb to St. Louis Lambert?
Executive Transportation schedules Macomb to St. Louis Lambert at about 153 miles and two hours thirty-five on clear roads. Chicago sits beyond the table we schedule Macomb from, so a coordinator quotes O’Hare and Midway trips individually rather than from a chart.
See the Lambert car service page.
Which towns around Macomb do you serve?
Executive Transportation picks up across McDonough County, including Bushnell, Colchester, Industry and Good Hope, and from any farm address or village between them. The quote is built from the hours the run takes and the vehicle you need rather than a zone map.
See every city we cover on the service area page.
Do you pick up private jet and charter passengers near Macomb?
Yes. The closest named operators are Great River Aviation at Quincy Regional and Byerly Aviation at Peoria International, both named by their own airports. Your chauffeur waits at the operator lobby rather than the airline doors, and crew and passengers ride on one booking.
Tell us the tail number when you book the chauffeur.
Can you handle a Western Illinois move-in or commencement weekend?
Yes. Those weekends bring families into Macomb from four different airports across two days. A van or a coach is held against your arrival pattern, and the same schedule runs in reverse when the weekend breaks up and everybody flies home.

One figure, written before you leave
The vehicle is quoted by the hour with the minimum stated up front, so the traffic the run is known for is planned into the hours.

The pickup starts at the airline cut-off, then the driving, then a cushion.
