Portsmouth International (PSM) Airport Car Service

PSM (officially Portsmouth International Airport at Pease, located on the site of the former Pease Air Force Base which closed in 1991 and was redeveloped as the Pease International Tradeport) sits in Portsmouth and Newington, New Hampshire in Rockingham County, accessible via the Spaulding Turnpike (SR 16), US 4, and the Pease Boulevard exits from Interstate 95. The airport is owned by the Pease Development Authority. Allegiant Air provides the primary scheduled commercial service, with corporate charter and general aviation operations rounding out traffic. PSM also serves as the host airfield for the New Hampshire Air National Guard's 157th Air Refueling Wing flying the KC 46 Pegasus. Our chauffeurs stage at the commercial vehicle lane outside the terminal.

PSM to downtown Portsmouth and Market Square (the historic colonial heart of Portsmouth with its restaurants, galleries, and waterfront) runs about 5 to 10 minutes via the Pease Boulevard exit to SR 1. PSM to Kittery, Maine (just across the Memorial Bridge over the Piscataqua River, home of the famous Kittery Trading Post and the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard) runs about 10 to 15 minutes via Interstate 95 northbound. We handle daily transfers to downtown Portsmouth hotels including the Hotel Portsmouth, the Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside Hotel, and the AC Hotel by Marriott Portsmouth Downtown.

Lonza Pharma and Biotech (the major Swiss specialty pharmaceutical manufacturer with one of its largest US operations at Pease, producing biologics and gene therapy products), Liberty Mutual Insurance operations, and dozens of other firms at the Pease International Tradeport generate consistent corporate aviation and ground transportation demand.

The New Hampshire and southern Maine Seacoast peak summer season runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with July and August generating the heaviest demand. Kennebunkport (Bush family compound at Walker's Point), Ogunquit (the famous Marginal Way coastal walk), and Hampton Beach all drive heavy weekend resort traffic through PSM. We recommend three to four weeks of lead time for peak summer SUV and Sprinter bookings, since Seacoast hotel inventory fills four to six months ahead.
