Shelby County (EET) Airport Limo Service

Stretch Limo Service to and from Shelby County (EET) Airport

Private flights into Calera deserve a ground connection that is ready the moment the propeller stops. Our Shelby County (EET) Airport Limo Service places a licensed chauffeur at the FBO terminal door with your name on a sign, the cabin already cooled, luggage handled, and the route to Alabaster, Pelham, Hoover or downtown Birmingham mapped in advance. As one branch of our wider Alabama airport limo service, the EET program follows the same standards travelers expect at the big airline hubs, scaled to a quiet general aviation field where personal attention is the whole point.

Union Limousine has delivered chauffeured transportation since 1997, and the Shelby County operation applies that experience to one of the busiest corporate aviation corridors south of Birmingham. Executives flying in for meetings along the Highway 31 and Interstate 65 business parks, families arriving for a University of Montevallo graduation, and golf groups headed to the courses around Pelham all receive the same treatment: a detailed vehicle, a professional driver, and a fixed quote before the aircraft leaves its home base.

Shelby County (EET) Airport at a Glance

History and Role in Shelby County

Owned by the Shelby County Commission, Shelby County Airport occupies roughly 125 acres beside Interstate 65 at 265 Shelby W Pkwy, Calera, AL 35040, United States, about four miles southeast of Alabaster. The airport office answers at +1 205 670 6359, and the county keeps current notices on its official Shelby County Airport page. A 2005 project funded through the FAA Airport Improvement Program lengthened the runway from 4,411 feet to its present 5,000 feet, which opened the field to a broader range of business jets and turboprops. Since 1992 the airport has also been home to the National Weather Service forecast office for Birmingham, which operates from a leased parcel across the interstate from the regional Doppler radar.

Airlines and Destinations Served

EET is a general aviation airport, so no scheduled airlines operate here and there are no ticket counters or security checkpoints. Traffic is made up of corporate jets, charter flights, flight training aircraft and privately owned planes. Domestic destinations are set by each operator, with Atlanta, Nashville, Dallas, Houston and the Gulf Coast among the common legs for business aircraft based in Shelby County. Passengers who need an airline seat usually connect through Birmingham Shuttlesworth International, roughly 30 miles north, and we drive that transfer every day.

Terminal and Passenger Volume

A single passenger terminal with a pilot lounge, flight briefing area and restrooms serves the field. Full service fuel in both 100LL and Jet A, tiedown parking and major airframe and powerplant maintenance are available through the fixed base operator, and self service avgas can be pumped at any hour with a credit card. The airport is attended from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. There is no control tower; clearance delivery is handled through Birmingham approach. Because EET has no airline service, activity is counted in aircraft operations. The single 5,000 by 75 foot runway (designated 16/34) with PAPI lighting on both ends handles a steady flow of business and training flights throughout the year.

Parking at Shelby County Airport

Automobile parking in front of the terminal is free and open to the public, which suits pilots leaving a car behind for several days. Aircraft parking is by tiedown, with hangar space arranged through the airport office. Visitors meeting a flight simply park in the terminal lot and walk inside; there is no commercial garage, shuttle lot or paid short term zone at a field this size.

Pickup and Drop Off Guidance

Our chauffeur greets you inside the FBO lobby and walks you to a vehicle parked steps from the entrance. Departing passengers are dropped at that same door, where line staff can move baggage straight to the aircraft. Shelby W Parkway is a short two lane access road, so we stage the vehicle a few minutes early to stay clear of the ramp gate, and every arrangement is confirmed with the flight crew or scheduler the evening before.

Ground Transportation Around Calera

No public transit route serves the airport, the nearest taxi activity is in Alabaster and Pelham, and rental car counters do not operate on the field. For most visitors that leaves a prearranged chauffeur as the dependable way to reach Birmingham, Hoover or the Shelby County business corridor. Our Shelby County Airport car service runs sedans and SUVs for those routine transfers at any hour of the day or night.

Tips for Passengers Arriving at EET

• Share your tail number or charter confirmation when booking so we track the true arrival time
• Allow an extra 20 minutes for downtown Birmingham meetings during the weekday morning rush on Interstate 65
• Mobile reception is strong at the field, so a quick text confirms the meeting point with your chauffeur
• No cell phone lot or curbside circling is needed; your driver waits in the terminal lobby
• Summer afternoons bring fast moving thunderstorms, and we watch the forecast office next door for delays

Why a Prebooked Chauffeur Beats Taxis and Rideshare at EET?

Rideshare coverage in Calera is thin, and a driver accepting a request from Alabaster may need 25 minutes to reach the terminal with no guarantee of a vehicle large enough for crew bags and golf clubs. A reservation with Union Limousine locks in the vehicle class, the price and the meeting time, and your chauffeur is already on the property when the aircraft shuts down. Receipts are itemized for expense reports, and corporate accounts can keep a card on file for recurring flights.

Weddings and Celebrations Near Calera

Venues around Chelsea, Columbiana and the lake country near Wilsonville draw wedding parties who fly in from across the Southeast. A stretch limousine or party bus waiting at EET delivers the group as one, and our limo service in Alabama stays with you through the ceremony, the reception and the late night hotel return.

Group Transfers to Shelby County Attractions

Incentive groups and school charters landing in Calera often head first to the Heart of Dixie Railroad Museum, the official railroad museum of Alabama, whose visitor directions place it only minutes from the airport. Others continue north to Pelham for a day at Oak Mountain State Park, where the park overview lists hiking trails, an 18 hole golf course and the Alabama Wildlife Center. We hold the coach on site so the return is as relaxed as the arrival.
