Inland Empire Airport
ONT Airport Car Service
Private chauffeur transportation to and from Ontario International Airport with flight monitoring, professional drivers and coordinated airport pickup.
About Ontario International Airport
Ontario International Airport sits in the Inland Empire, roughly forty miles east of Downtown Los Angeles, with direct freeway access from the 10, 15 and 60.
It is the natural gateway for Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, Riverside and San Bernardino, and an increasingly practical alternative for travellers heading toward Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley without crossing the Los Angeles basin.
Terminals are modern and uncrowded, so arrivals move from gate to ground transportation quickly — useful when the drive itself is the longer part of the journey.

Chauffeur Service
Private Transportation to and from Ontario International Airport
ELS provides pre-arranged chauffeur transportation between ONT and corporate offices, hotels, private residences, meetings, resorts, events, other airports and long-distance destinations across Southern California.
Distance is the defining characteristic of ONT transfers. Runs to Los Angeles, Orange County or Palm Springs are substantial drives, and a confirmed chauffeur with a quoted rate is considerably more predictable than app-based transportation over that kind of distance.
Executives travelling alone typically take a luxury sedan; arrivals with luggage or a small team take a Cadillac Escalade ESV; conference groups and desert-bound parties take a Sprinter.

Arrivals
Arriving at Ontario International Airport
We coordinate the chauffeur from your actual arrival information, so the vehicle is in position as you reach the ground transportation area rather than waiting on a scheduled time.
Pickup location depends on terminal, airport regulations and the type of service reserved. Ontario applies its own ground transportation procedures to authorized professional operators; your chauffeur or ELS dispatch will confirm the appropriate meeting location before pickup.
For long onward drives to Palm Springs or the coast, let us know if you would like a stop en route so it can be built into the itinerary.
Departures
Departing from Ontario International Airport
Your chauffeur coordinates the departure time around your airline, terminal, departure time, traffic on the 10, 15 and 60, your own preference and the arrival time your airline recommends.
Because many ONT departures begin with a long drive from Los Angeles or Orange County, we plan conservatively. We do not guarantee travel times, but we do monitor conditions on the day and adjust the pickup where sensible.
Drop-off is at the appropriate permitted departure location according to current airport regulations, with luggage assistance at the curb.
Meet & Greet
Meet & Greet at Ontario International Airport
Meet & Greet may be requested at ONT when available and permitted. Your chauffeur coordinates the appropriate meeting point and may carry a personalized name sign, which is helpful for visiting clients and conference guests.
Meeting procedures follow current airport regulations and are limited to publicly permitted areas. ELS does not promise access to secure or restricted areas of the airport.
