Sheltair Tampa Car Service
Ground transportation built around Sheltair’s operation — the 24/7 FBO by International Plaza. Whether you’re a passenger stepping off a jet, a crew rotating out, or an operator moving a charter group, we coordinate with the line crew and have the car ready at the ramp.
About Sheltair Tampa
An operation, not just a terminal.
Sheltair is the Florida backbone of private aviation — and the only operator present at all three Tampa Bay airports. At Tampa International it runs a full 24-hour FBO on Jim Walter Boulevard, beside International Plaza, with crew facilities, on-field customs and a hangar complex. We work it every day, so the ground side runs as smoothly as the ramp.
24/7 dispatch
Round-the-clock coordination with Sheltair’s line crew — no arrival is too early or too late.
Crew cars & lounge
Sheltair’s crew facilities and our crew runs work in tandem for seamless crew rotations.
Customs adjacent
International private arrivals clear at the on-field customs steps from the ramp.
Hangar & ramp access
Staged at the hangar complex by International Plaza for a fast ramp-to-road transfer.
Passenger Pickup Process
What happens when you land.
Aircraft parks at Sheltair
Your inbound flight is tracked to the minute; the moment you taxi in, dispatch confirms the chauffeur is in position.
Chauffeur staged at the FBO
The vehicle waits at the Sheltair ramp or lounge — never circling, never “five minutes out.”
Ramp or lounge meet
A name-sign greeting inside the lounge, or a discreet ramp-side pickup where access allows.
Bags handled, en route
Luggage moves aircraft-to-car; you settle in as the chauffeur takes the fastest cleared route out of Westshore.
Crew Transportation
Made for the people who move the aircraft.
Charter operators, schedulers and crews get more from Sheltair than a single ride. We run standing crew rotations between the FBO and the crew hotel, hold the same trusted chauffeurs, and consolidate it all onto one account with clean monthly billing.
- 24/7 FBO-to-hotel crew rotations
- Standing operator & crew accounts
- Consolidated, audit-ready billing
