Airport Transportation in Nashville

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Nashville International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

From Nashville International we take you to downtown Nashville and Lower Broadway, the Gulch, Midtown and Music Row, East Nashville, the Gaylord Opryland Resort, and south to Franklin and Brentwood, with airport transportation in Nashville booked before your flight.

Nashville Airport Transfers

Your driver meets you at the pickup point in your confirmation as you leave baggage claim. We track your flight, so a delay moves the pickup instead of cancelling it, and the price for the whole vehicle is fixed before you fly.

Nashville airport transfers run door to door in sedans, SUVs and vans for groups: to hotels on and around Broadway, the Music City Center, short-term rentals in the Gulch and East Nashville, the Gaylord Opryland, and homes and offices in Franklin, Brentwood and Cool Springs.

Nashville Airport Shuttle

The Nashville airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, with no stops at other hotels on the way. It has room for luggage and suits bachelor and bachelorette parties, wedding groups, families heading to Opryland, and conference teams going to the Music City Center.

Landing at Nashville Airport

Nashville International Airport (BNA) sits southeast of downtown Nashville. It has one terminal with Concourses A to D behind central security, and baggage claim on the lower level; the airport has been expanding under its BNA Vision program, so expect some construction.

International arrivals clear US immigration and customs at the airport before baggage claim. Weekends are busy with groups arriving for Broadway nights and events, so curbs and baggage claim can be crowded on Friday afternoons. Nashville is on Central time.

Entry requirements and local notes

  • Entry to the US: international travelers need a valid passport and either a visa or an approved ESTA under the Visa Waiver Program. Have your arrival address ready for the immigration officer.
  • Customs: declare food, plants and animal products, and cash over $10,000.
  • Short-term rentals: give the full street address and any gate or building code when you book; many downtown rentals have no front desk.
  • Pickup: follow the pickup instructions in your confirmation, not the taxi or rideshare signs.

At the pickup point in your confirmation, after you collect your bags. The driver's contact details are in your confirmation too, so you can let them know when you're ready.

What happens if my flight to Nashville is delayed?

Per vehicle. The price you see when you book covers the whole car or van and everyone in your party.
