Executive Transportation in Jacksonville, IL: Limo Service & Car Service
A uniformed chauffeur at your door on the square, and the airport run taken off your hands.
Jacksonville sends people to four airports and back again: Abraham Lincoln Capital for the short connection, St. Louis Lambert for almost everything else, Quincy Regional when the schedule suits it, and Decatur now and then. The rest is college weekends, hospital visitors and evenings out.

Airports from Jacksonville
The Capital Airport, or down to Lambert?
From Jacksonville the closest airline airport is Abraham Lincoln Capital, about 40 minutes out. Quincy Regional is about 1 hour 15 minutes, Decatur about 1 hour 20 and St. Louis Lambert about 1 hour 30. Executive Transportation drives Jacksonville travelers to all of them.
These are clear-road figures measured from Jacksonville, so read them as a floor rather than a promise. Tell a coordinator which field and which flight, and the pickup is set from the check-in cut-off backwards.
Ten of these fields sit inside two hours of Jacksonville, which is an unusually good hand for a city this size and is why the fare comparison is always worth ten minutes.
Four airports, one way of quoting: by the hour, for the whole vehicle.
Where we pick up in Jacksonville
The addresses Jacksonville trips actually start at
Jacksonville work divides neatly: the square and the county offices, two campuses that bring visitors from everywhere, and the hospital and hotel runs around them. Each of those doors is somewhere a chauffeur can collect from.

Private jets and charter
Private jet and charter flights near Jacksonville
Not every flight that brings someone to Jacksonville comes off an airline. Charter and corporate aircraft clear the general aviation side of Abraham Lincoln Capital, and sometimes Quincy Regional instead, and both get the same car at the same hour as a terminal pickup.
- 01
Your car waits at the FBO, not the terminal
Charter passengers walk out of the fixed base operator, a separate building on a separate road from the airline doors. The chauffeur is parked at that entrance when you come through it.
- 02
Two fields, one booking
Some charters route into Abraham Lincoln Capital and some west into Quincy Regional. Tell a coordinator which one and the pickup is built around that lobby rather than a guess.
- 03
Crew and passengers together
The flight crew needs a hotel and the passengers need an address in Jacksonville. Both go on one reservation, in one vehicle or in two, and neither waits on the other.
- 04
A Sprinter when a whole party lands
Eight or ten arriving passengers, their cases and a stand-up aisle fit one Sprinter. A larger group takes a coach, and the quote covers the vehicle rather than the seats in it.
The FBO lobbies closest to Jacksonville
- Stellar Aviation900 Capital Airport Drive, Springfield, Illinois 62707The fixed base operator at Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport, named on the airport’s own FBO and MRO page, with Jet A and 100LL, hangar and ramp parking and a crew lounge. It is the closest FBO lobby to Jacksonville by a wide margin.
- Great River AviationQuincy Regional Airport, Baldwin Field, 1645 Highway IL-104, Quincy, Illinois 62305The fixed base operator the city of Quincy names on its own general aviation page, with 100LL and jet fuel, hangar and tiedowns, airframe and powerplant work and a courtesy car. The second option when a charter routes west instead.
Tell us the tail number, the operator and the slot, and which of the two fields you are landing at. We prefer 72 hours’ notice, but call anytime. Short-notice trips depend on availability.

Why be driven
Four reasons Jacksonville travelers stop driving themselves
Jacksonville sits on Interstate 72 with four usable airports inside ninety minutes, which is the good news. The bad news is that all four of them want you there before dawn.
Interstate 72 at 4 a.m. is not a treat
The Lambert run west and south out of Jacksonville starts in the dark for most morning departures. From the back seat that is another hour of sleep instead of another hour of concentration.
Fog on the river bottoms
Winter mornings out here come with fog off the low ground and frost on the glass. A uniformed chauffeur is at your door in it, on time, with the car already warm.
Nine days of airport parking, avoided
Leaving a car at a terminal for a week is a cost and a worry. Being collected at your door and returned to it removes both, and the number does not change.
Six people, one number
Jacksonville trips are quoted by the hour for the whole vehicle, with the minimum stated up front. A family or a work party traveling together rides on one figure and nobody files six expense claims.
We prefer 72 hours’ notice, but call anytime. Short-notice trips depend on availability.
Popular runs from Jacksonville
The runs Jacksonville books most
Three runs cover most of what leaves this city. Executive Transportation drives Jacksonville to St. Louis Lambert, to Abraham Lincoln Capital and to Quincy Regional on one booking, in one vehicle, with the luggage staying where you put it.
Book with both flight numbers and both times, and phone dispatch the moment one of them changes.
Clear-road numbers, and the Lambert leg is the one that moves with the weather. More reading on these runs: the drive down to Lambert, when the Capital Airport beats a hub and how the regional airports compare.
Out through one airport and home through another, on a single reservation.
The fleet
Fleet for Jacksonville runs
Every Jacksonville trip is quoted by the hour for the whole vehicle, so headcount and checked bags settle the choice rather than a per-seat rate. Tell us who is riding and what they are bringing.

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.
Employers and institutions around Morgan County move visitors in and out all year, and corporate airport transfers are arranged one trip, one team or one travel calendar at a time.
College weekends, weddings and reunions bring parties that arrive in waves rather than all at once, which is what event transportation is built for.
Jacksonville questions
What Jacksonville riders ask before they book
The answers below use the calibrated drive times Jacksonville schedules are built from, and the airports’ own published pages.
How much notice do you need for a car in Jacksonville?
Roughly 72 hours of notice is what a Jacksonville airport run wants, and nearer a week once a group passes fifteen. There is someone on the line at any hour, and a late request turns on which vehicles are still uncommitted.
Call (217) 523-5466 or request a quote.
Do you pick up at my door in Jacksonville?
Yes. Pickup happens at whatever Jacksonville address goes on the booking: a house off the square, a campus building, a hospital entrance or a hotel. Your bags are carried from the step to the trunk and out again at the terminal.
See how airport transportation works.
Which airport is closest to Jacksonville?
Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport, code SPI, is about 40 minutes and 37 miles from Jacksonville, which makes it the closest airline field by a clear margin. Executive Transportation still drives Jacksonville travelers to Lambert, Quincy or Decatur when the fare or the schedule is better there.
See the Abraham Lincoln Capital car service page.
How long is the drive from Jacksonville to Lambert, and to the Capital Airport?
Executive Transportation schedules Jacksonville to St. Louis Lambert at about 90 miles and 1 hour 30 minutes on clear roads, and Jacksonville to Abraham Lincoln Capital at about 37 miles and 40 minutes. Both are floors rather than promises, since weather and road work move either one.
See the Jacksonville to Lambert route page.
Which towns around Jacksonville do you serve?
Executive Transportation picks up across Morgan County and the towns next to it, including South Jacksonville, Chapin, Franklin, Waverly, Meredosia and Winchester, and from any address between them. The quote is built from the pickup address and the vehicle, never from a zone.
See every city we cover on the service area page.
Which vehicle should a group leaving Jacksonville book?
The whole vehicle is what gets quoted by the hour here, never the seat. An executive sedan holds two or three, a luxury SUV five or six, a Sprinter van as many as fourteen, and a shuttle or limousine coach fifteen to thirty-five. Eight to ten riders who want to arrive together take the stretch limousine.
Compare them on the fleet page.
Do you pick up private jet and charter passengers near Jacksonville?
Yes. Charter and corporate flights near Jacksonville usually clear through Stellar Aviation at Abraham Lincoln Capital, or Great River Aviation at Quincy Regional. Your chauffeur waits at whichever lobby you are landing at rather than the airline terminal, and crew and passengers ride on one booking.
Tell us the tail number when you book the chauffeur.
Can you cover an Illinois College weekend or a wedding in Jacksonville?
Yes. College weekends and weddings around the square arrive in waves rather than all at once, so the schedule matters more than the vehicle. Executive Transportation lines up a coach or a run of Sprinters to match how the party arrives, then runs it backwards at the end of the night.

Book the ride
Request your Jacksonville ride
Three things Jacksonville riders say made the difference.
Quoted by the hour, in writing
The vehicle and chauffeur are quoted by the hour with the minimum stated up front, so a slow morning on Interstate 72 is planned into the hours. Six riders ride on one figure.
Laid out from the cut-off backwards
The schedule is laid out from the cut-off backwards, drive first and weather cushion last. That is why a dawn departure out of Jacksonville still works.
Dispatch answers day and night
Most Jacksonville bookings are an early start or a late landing, and somebody answers at either end of them.
