Quincy, Illinois · Contour flights to O’Hare and Nashville
Quincy Regional Airport (UIN) Car Service & Chauffeured Transportation
A terminal you can cross in a few strides, and a chauffeur who waits inside it.
Quincy Regional, Baldwin Field, puts check-in, security and the gate within a few steps of the front door, which makes the drive the only part of the trip worth planning. Executive Transportation works the Quincy end of that, for Contour departures, for private and charter flights, and for the runs to St. Louis and Chicago when the fare is not here.

Know the airport
What to know about Quincy Regional Airport
Quincy Regional Airport, Baldwin Field, code UIN, sits east of Quincy on Illinois 104 and is run by the City of Quincy. Contour Airlines flies it, there is one terminal, and the parking is free. The same field carries private and charter aircraft through its fixed base operator, which is where a chauffeured pickup happens.
Contour flies O’Hare and Nashville from here
The city lists Contour service from Quincy Regional to Chicago O’Hare and to Nashville International, with twelve round trips a week on 30-seat regional jets. O’Hare in particular is the reason the field matters to a business traveler in the river counties: it turns a long haul up the interstate into a short flight and a connection.
One terminal, and everything in it
Quincy describes one-stop airline check-in covering seat assignments, boarding passes, luggage and gate information, in a building that also carries a full service restaurant, vending, car rentals, an ATM, taxi services, a conference room with catering and air charter services. A conference room at your departure airport is not a common thing, and it is genuinely useful on a morning out.
Parking is free, which changes the question
The city states that patrons of the businesses at Quincy Regional Airport, Baldwin Field, are entitled to free parking in the municipal lot. So the argument for a chauffeur here is not the parking bill. It is the 6 a.m. start, the ice on Illinois 104 in February, and the car you would otherwise leave sitting for a week.
Where a chauffeured car meets you
The city publishes no pickup door or lane, so none is printed here. On a terminal this size it hardly matters: your chauffeur waits inside the building or at the front doors and confirms it with you when the booking is made. Charter arrivals are met at the Great River Aviation lobby instead.
Airline, terminal, parking and general aviation details checked on the city’s own pages at quincyil.gov on September 17, 2026. Schedules and services change, so confirm anything time sensitive before you travel.

Departures and arrivals at Quincy Regional
A small terminal removes most of the friction. The drive to it is the part worth handing over.
Departures
Your address to the terminal doors
- Send the flight and the timeAirline, flight number and scheduled departure. There is one terminal at Quincy, so nothing else needs deciding.
- We work backward from the departureContour runs twelve round trips a week rather than an hourly shuttle, so the early ones carry real consequences if you miss them. The pickup is set against the airline’s own check-in ask, plus the road.
- Bags lifted at your doorQuincy address, a farm outside Mendon, or a hotel in Hannibal across the river. The chauffeur handles the luggage from whichever it is.
- Dropped at the front of the terminalCheck-in, security and the gate are all within a short walk of that door. If you are flying a charter instead, the drop moves to the Great River Aviation lobby.
Arrivals
Off the aircraft and straight out
- Book with the flight numberThe flight number and the scheduled landing set the vehicle. Call dispatch if either one moves, including in the middle of the night.
- Bags come out fast hereA 30-seat regional jet does not take long to unload, which is exactly why the car needs to be waiting rather than summoned.
- Meet the chauffeur at baggage claimThe city publishes no designated pickup lane, and you never need one. Your chauffeur is inside at baggage claim when the bags come out, takes them, and walks you to the vehicle.
- On to Quincy, Hannibal or the river townsDowntown Quincy is a few minutes away. Macomb, Jacksonville, Hannibal and the farms between them are ordinary drops on this run.
Private jets and charter
Private jet and charter flights at Quincy Regional
Baldwin Field has two long runways and a full fixed base operation, and plenty of what uses them never appears on a published schedule. Executive Transportation meets private, charter and corporate aircraft here the same way it meets a Contour arrival.
- 01
Pickup at the FBO, not the airline doors
Charter passengers come through the fixed base operator rather than the passenger terminal, so the chauffeur waits at that lobby. On a field this size the car is already in view as you come off the ramp.
- 02
Luggage handled beside the aircraft
Where the operator allows vehicle access, the cases go from the hold into the trunk without a second handling. Where they do not, the handover happens at the FBO door and the timing does not change.
- 03
The crew car and the passenger car, booked together
A crew heading for a hotel and passengers heading into Quincy usually need to move at the same moment. One reservation covers both, in one vehicle or two.
- 04
A Sprinter for a full aircraft
Fourteen seats and a stand-up aisle take a whole charter in one go, with room for hard cases and sample kits. Larger parties move to a coach, and the quote still covers the vehicle.
Where general aviation runs at Quincy Regional
- Great River AviationQuincy Regional Airport, Baldwin Field, 1645 Highway IL-104, Quincy, Illinois 62305The fixed base operator the city names on its own general aviation page, with 100LL and jet fuel, hangar and tiedowns, airframe and powerplant work and a courtesy car. That lobby is where a chauffeur meets a charter arrival.
Book with the tail number, the operator and the scheduled arrival, and phone dispatch if that time changes. Somebody is awake at the other end of that line. We prefer 72 hours’ notice, but call anytime. Short-notice trips depend on availability.

Why be driven
Four reasons to be driven to Quincy Regional
Free parking takes the obvious argument off the table, so here is the honest one. It is about the hour you leave, the weather, and the car you would otherwise abandon for a week.
Quoted by the hour, for the vehicle
The vehicle and chauffeur are quoted by the hour, with the minimum stated up front, and the figure covers the whole car. Four colleagues on the same Contour flight ride together instead of leaving two cars in the lot.
Nobody drives home at midnight
The return leg is the half people forget. A late arrival into Quincy still has to get to Macomb, Jacksonville or across the river, and that is our job rather than yours.
Winter on Illinois 104
A 6 a.m. departure in January means leaving in the dark on roads that have not been touched. Our chauffeurs do that run all winter.
Or the long way, to a bigger fare
When the schedule does not work from Quincy, the same company drives you to Lambert or O’Hare instead. One call covers either decision.
We prefer 72 hours’ notice, but call anytime. Short-notice trips depend on availability.

Where our Quincy Regional runs start
Most Quincy Regional work starts in Quincy itself and the towns along the river, and we also drive it from further east. Every run is one quote for the whole vehicle, in either direction.
The figures below are clear-road drives to Baldwin Field. Give dispatch the flight rather than the drive: with twelve round trips a week, the pickup is built backward from a schedule that does not repeat every hour.
Calibrated clear-road figures. Treat them as the floor. Pickups in Quincy itself are a few minutes rather than a drive, and we also collect from Hannibal, Macomb, Galesburg and Jacksonville.

Free parking at Quincy Regional, and why people still book a car
Quincy gives its airport patrons free parking in the municipal lot, so this section is not an argument about money. It is an argument about who drives, and when.
- Public parkingFreeThe city states that patrons of the businesses at Quincy Regional, Baldwin Field, park free in the municipal lot.
- Each way from Springfield119 miAbout 1 hour 50 minutes on clear roads, most of it west on I-72 through Jacksonville.
- The round trip, at the IRS rate$180.88238 miles at 76 cents a mile, the business standard rate for July 1 to December 31, 2026.
A free lot still leaves somebody driving home in the dark after a delayed connection through O’Hare. Read how the regional fields compare.

The Quincy round trip uses the IRS business standard of 76 cents a mile, posted on irs.gov for July 1 to December 31, 2026. The transfer itself is quoted by the hour with a minimum stated up front, so a coordinator is the one to ask for the number.

Where does the chauffeur meet you at Quincy Regional Airport?
Executive Transportation meets arriving passengers at the terminal, and your chauffeur agrees on the exact spot with you when the booking is made. The city publishes no designated pickup lane, and on a building this size it is not needed. Charter arrivals are met at the Great River Aviation lobby instead.
Call (217) 523-5466 to arrange the pickup point.
How long is the drive from Springfield to Quincy Regional Airport?
Executive Transportation figures about 119 miles and about 1 hour 50 minutes on clear roads, mostly west on I-72 through Jacksonville. Peoria and Decatur are both about 2 hours 30 minutes, and Bloomington-Normal about 2 hours 50. Treat all of those as the floor rather than a promise.
See the Quincy service area.
Do you pick up from private jets and charter flights at Quincy Regional?
Executive Transportation meets private, charter and corporate aircraft at Baldwin Field through the fixed base operator rather than the passenger terminal. We load beside the aircraft where the operator allows it, and carry flight crew and passengers on one booking. A Sprinter takes a full charter in one vehicle.
Send the tail number when you book the chauffeur.
What happens if my Contour flight into Quincy is delayed?
Executive Transportation wants a call to dispatch the moment Contour tells you the flight has slipped. The vehicle is held against the flight number and scheduled arrival you gave at booking rather than a schedule we watch ourselves, so a call is what moves it. Somebody answers the phone in the middle of the night.
Call (217) 523-5466 to move a booked pickup.
Can you drive from Quincy to St. Louis or O’Hare instead?
Executive Transportation drives Quincy to St. Louis Lambert at about 130 miles and 2 hours 10 minutes, and north to Chicago when the connection or the fare calls for it. Plenty of Quincy travelers use the flight one way and the car the other. One call arranges either version.
See the Quincy to St. Louis airport route.
Which vehicle should a group book for Quincy Regional?
Executive Transportation runs executive sedans for two to three passengers, luxury SUVs for five to six, Sprinter vans for fourteen, and coaches for parties up to thirty-five. A 30-seat regional jet limits the luggage, so headcount decides it here more often than bags do. Tell a coordinator both.
