Martin State (MTN) Airport Car Service

MTN (officially Martin State Airport, named for the historic Glenn L. Martin Company aircraft plant that built the B 26 Marauder, the Mars flying boat, and other aircraft during World War II) sits in Middle River, Maryland in Baltimore County about 9 miles east of downtown Baltimore, accessible via Interstate 695 (Baltimore Beltway) and Eastern Boulevard (US 40 Truck). The airport is owned and operated by the Maryland Aviation Administration and shares the airfield with the 175th Wing of the Maryland Air National Guard. There is no scheduled commercial service; MTN handles general aviation, corporate charter, flight training, and military operations. Our chauffeurs stage at the terminal area for charter and FBO pickups.

MTN to downtown Baltimore and the Inner Harbor runs about 20 to 25 minutes via Interstate 695 westbound to Interstate 95 southbound. We handle daily transfers to Inner Harbor hotels including the Royal Sonesta Harbor Court, the Four Seasons Hotel Baltimore, the Sagamore Pendry Baltimore (the historic Recreation Pier hotel in Fells Point), and the Hyatt Regency Inner Harbor.

Yes. MTN is one of the busiest corporate charter and general aviation airports in the Baltimore region, with hangar facilities, FBO services, and ramp space for business jets including Gulfstream G650, Bombardier Global Express, Dassault Falcon 7X, and Cessna Citation aircraft. The 7,000 foot main runway and full Class D airspace operations accommodate every category of business aviation. We hold standing accounts with several charter operators and corporate flight departments running scheduled MTN rotations.

Yes. Northrop Grumman Mission Systems (the defense electronics, radar, and battle management division, with major operations at the historic Martin Aircraft factory site adjacent to MTN) runs within minutes of the airport. We hold standing accounts with Northrop Grumman executive visitors, classified program review delegations, Department of Defense customer transport, and supplier logistics teams running cleared facility transfers. 

Yes. Aberdeen Proving Ground (the US Army's oldest active proving ground, home to US Army Test and Evaluation Command, Communications Electronics Command, and the Edgewood Chemical Biological Center) runs about 30 to 40 minutes from MTN via Interstate 95 northbound to MD 22. We handle daily transfers for visiting flag officers, civilian Department of Army contractors, ATEC test program delegations, and corporate vendors serving the broader APG mission. 

Yes. Towson (home of Towson University and the Towson Town Center business corridor) runs about 20 to 25 minutes from MTN via Interstate 695 westbound, and Hunt Valley (the major Baltimore County executive office corridor) runs about 30 minutes via Interstate 695 to Interstate 83 northbound. We handle daily corporate transfers for McCormick and Company (the spice and seasoning company headquartered in Hunt Valley) and the broader north Baltimore County business base.

Yes. The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU APL, the federally funded research and development center in Laurel, Maryland, conducting research for the Department of Defense, NASA, and other federal sponsors) runs about 45 to 60 minutes from MTN via Interstate 695 westbound to Interstate 95 southbound. We handle daily APL visitor transfers, classified program meeting transport, and sponsor delegation logistics.

Yes. The 175th Wing of the Maryland Air National Guard at Warfield Air National Guard Base (located on the MTN airfield, operating both the A 10 Thunderbolt II Cyber Operations and the 175th Cyberspace Operations Group) generates regular military and family transportation demand through MTN. We handle daily transfers for visiting officers, civilian contractors, change of command ceremonies, drill weekend family pickups, and PCS arrivals.

Corporate aviation demand at MTN concentrates around Northrop Grumman Mission Systems classified program review weeks, Aberdeen Proving Ground major test campaigns, McCormick and Company board meetings, JHU APL sponsor visit weeks, and Preakness Stakes weekend (when Baltimore charter activity spikes across the entire region). We recommend one to two weeks of lead time for charter day SUV and Sprinter bookings, with longer lead times around Preakness weekend in May.

Yes. Dispatch runs around the clock with a live human on the line, and we operate red eye corporate charter arrivals, 4 am 175th Wing early formation transfers, and late night downtown Baltimore event pickups. There is no surcharge for late night or early morning service on standard bookings.
