Chattanooga Metropolitan (CHA) Airport Car Service

CHA (officially Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport, also known as Lovell Field after early Tennessee aviation pioneer William L. Lovell) sits about 6 miles east of downtown Chattanooga in Hamilton County, Tennessee, accessible via Interstate 75 and Airport Road. The airport is owned and operated by the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport Authority. Delta, American, United, Allegiant, Avelo, and Sun Country provide scheduled commercial service from a single terminal building. CHA serves as the primary commercial gateway for southeastern Tennessee and the broader Volkswagen Chattanooga manufacturing corridor. Our chauffeurs stage at the commercial vehicle lane outside the terminal.

CHA to downtown Chattanooga and the Tennessee Riverfront runs about 15 minutes via Interstate 75 southbound to Interstate 24 westbound, and CHA to Lookout Mountain (the iconic Chattanooga landmark with Rock City and Ruby Falls atop the summit) runs about 20 to 25 minutes. We handle daily transfers to downtown Chattanooga hotels including The Read House (the historic 1872 grand hotel), the Edwin Hotel (Autograph Collection), and the Westin Chattanooga.

Yes. Volkswagen Chattanooga Assembly (the Volkswagen Group's only US passenger vehicle assembly plant, producing the Atlas, Atlas Cross Sport, and the new ID.4 electric vehicles, anchoring the Chattanooga automotive manufacturing corridor) runs about 15 to 20 minutes from CHA via Bonny Oaks Drive. We hold standing accounts with Volkswagen executive visitors, German engineering delegations, supplier logistics, and the broader Chattanooga automotive supplier base including the BMW and Mercedes Benz Sprinter Van assembly partners.

Yes. The Tennessee Aquarium (the largest freshwater aquarium in the world when it opened in 1992, anchoring downtown Chattanooga's Tennessee Riverfront) and the Hunter Museum of American Art (the regional art museum perched on the bluff overlooking the Tennessee River) both sit about 15 to 20 minutes from CHA via downtown Chattanooga. We handle daily museum visitor transfers, corporate hospitality logistics for major Tennessee Aquarium events, and Bluff View Art District tour pickups.

Yes. The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC, home of the Chattanooga Mocs FCS football team, one of the most consistent FCS playoff contenders) and Finley Stadium run about 15 to 20 minutes from CHA. We handle parent weekend transfers, Mocs home football game weekend transport, McKenzie Arena basketball pickups, graduation week, and visiting Southern Conference team logistics.

Yes. Rock City Gardens (the legendary 4,100 foot rock formation gardens atop Lookout Mountain, famous for the See Rock City barn advertisements painted across the South) and Ruby Falls (the 145 foot underground waterfall, the deepest commercial cave in the United States) both sit atop Lookout Mountain about 20 to 25 minutes from CHA. We handle daily tourist attraction transfers, the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway pickup logistics, and Battlefield Park visitor transport for Civil War history tours.

Yes. The Riverbend Festival (the annual May or June Chattanooga music festival on the Tennessee Riverfront, drawing major touring acts to downtown Chattanooga for multi day performances on the Coca Cola Stage, the Bud Light Stage, and the broader Riverfront stages) runs about 15 minutes from CHA. We handle festival weekend airport transfers, VIP hospitality logistics, and downtown Chattanooga hotel pickups during the festival window.

Yes. Erlanger Health System (the major regional academic medical center serving the Tennessee Valley, the Level I trauma center for the broader Chattanooga region) and CHI Memorial Hospital (part of CommonSpirit Health following the 2019 system merger, the major Catholic health system in Chattanooga) both sit about 15 to 20 minutes from CHA. We handle patient transfers, visiting physician transport, family member airport pickups for extended hospital stays, and corporate transfers for both health systems.

The Riverbend Festival generates the heaviest event tourism demand of our Chattanooga year. We recommend three to four weeks of lead time for festival weekend SUV and Sprinter bookings. The Nightfall Friday concert series on the Miller Plaza throughout the summer and the annual Head of the Hooch rowing regatta on the Tennessee River in November also drive seasonal demand spikes.

Yes. Dispatch runs around the clock with a live human on the line, and we operate red eye arrivals, 4 am Volkswagen Chattanooga early shift corporate transfers, and late night downtown Chattanooga Bluff View and Tennessee Riverfront district pickups. There is no surcharge for late night or early morning service on standard bookings.
