Charleston Private Aviation & FBO Transportation
Charleston private aviation chauffeur service from YAZ Limousine coordinates ground transportation for private jet arrivals across the Charleston region’s general-aviation fields. Charleston Executive Airport (JZI) is on Johns Island, is operated by the Charleston County Aviation Authority, and Atlantic Aviation operates the FBO; JZI is noted as close to the resort communities of Kiawah and Seabrook and primarily serves corporate and business jets — making it the natural field for Kiawah-bound private arrivals. Charleston International Airport (CHS) also has general-aviation operations served by an Atlantic Aviation FBO. Mount Pleasant Regional Airport (LRO/Faison Field) is minutes from the Old Village of Mount Pleasant and historic downtown, and Berkeley County Airport (MKS) serves the Moncks Corner and Berkeley County area.
Aircraft-side pickup where authorized by the airport, FBO and local security procedures, luggage transferred aircraft-to-vehicle where airside access is authorized — then onward to your Downtown Charleston hotel, Kiawah or Seabrook, Boeing, Mount Pleasant, or any destination across the region. Charleston private aviation service is coordinated through YAZ’s Nashville dispatch with local affiliate operators using YAZ’s centralized reservation, dispatch and trip-management process (the YAZ Trip Management Standard). Specific FBO procedures, ramp access, and tail-number coordination details are confirmed with our dispatch team when you book.
How an FBO Pickup Works
Provide your tail number, FBO, and ETA at booking. Dispatch monitors the aircraft in real time, coordinates with your flight crew and FBO staff, and stages the chauffeur on the field before your aircraft lands. Aircraft-side pickup is included where authorized by the airport, FBO and local security procedures — otherwise the chauffeur meets you in the FBO lobby — with luggage transferred aircraft-to-vehicle where airside access is authorized. Automatic re-staging covers delays, early arrivals, re-routes, and FBO switches.
