Peter O. Knight (TPF) Airport Limo Service

Stretch Limo Service to and from Peter O. Knight (TPF) Airport

Private flyers landing on Davis Islands expect the car to be waiting the moment the propellers stop. Union Limousine runs a dedicated Peter O. Knight (TPF) Airport Limo Service for pilots, charter passengers, executives, and families who choose Tampa's downtown airfield for its short hop into the city. As part of our wider Florida airport limo service, every TPF ride comes with a licensed chauffeur, a clean late model vehicle, and a fixed quote you approve before the trip.

A Chauffeur Waiting Where Your Private Flight Parks

TPF sits at the southern tip of Davis Islands, roughly three and a half miles from downtown Tampa. The airfield handles general aviation traffic only, so there is no taxi line, no rideshare staging lot, and no curbside dispatcher. That is exactly why a reserved limo makes sense here. We watch your tail number or charter schedule, adjust for early or late landings, and have your chauffeur parked near the fixed base operator before you taxi in.

• Door to door rides from the TPF ramp area to hotels, homes, offices, and event venues
• Flight tracking for private, charter, and flight school arrivals
• Luggage, golf bag, and equipment handling by your chauffeur
• Hourly bookings for meetings, site visits, and evenings out in Tampa
• Group vehicles for wedding parties, sports teams, and corporate retreats

Peter O. Knight (TPF) Airport Information for Travelers

Before you land, it helps to know how this small waterfront field works. The details below come from public records and the Peter O. Knight Airport page maintained by the Hillsborough County Aviation Authority.

TPF at a Glance

• Airport Name: Peter O. Knight (TPF) Airport
• Airport Code: TPF (ICAO KTPF)
• Address: 825 Severn Ave, Tampa, FL 33606, United States
• Phone: +1 813 251 1752
• Operator: Hillsborough County Aviation Authority, with Atlas Aviation as the fixed base operator
• Runways: Runway 4/22 at 3,580 feet and Runway 18/36 at about 2,688 feet

History and Importance of the Airfield

Built in 1935 as a Works Progress Administration project, the field was named for Peter Oliphant Knight, a prominent Tampa attorney and businessman. It served as Tampa's main commercial airport until the mid 1940s, when Eastern and National moved their flights to Drew Field, the site that became Tampa International. The original administration building was replaced in 1965 with the compact flight themed building still used today. The airport remains valuable because it puts private aircraft five minutes from the downtown core, Tampa General Hospital, and the Channelside waterfront.

Airlines and Domestic Destinations

No scheduled airlines operate at TPF. Traffic consists of private owners, corporate turboprops, air charter operators, flight school aircraft, and helicopter tours. Domestic routes depend entirely on the operator you fly with, so most arrivals come from Florida airfields and short hops around the Southeast. Travelers needing airline service connect through Tampa International, about 20 minutes away by car in light traffic.

Terminal Information

The terminal is a small administration building with a pilot lounge, run by Atlas Aviation daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Services include Jet A and 100LL fuel, maintenance, flight training, aircraft rental, hangar and tie down storage, weather briefing, and rental cars on request. Arriving passengers usually walk from the ramp straight to the front of this building.

Passenger Traffic

Because TPF has no airline service, it does not report enplanements the way commercial airports do. Activity is measured in aircraft operations, and volume rises during winter months, Gasparilla season, and major Tampa events when private flyers look for a field close to downtown.

Parking Overview

Parking is limited to a small lot beside the administration building, intended for pilots, tenants, and short visits. There are no garages or economy lots. Anyone leaving a car for several days should call Atlas Aviation first to confirm space.

Pickup and Drop Off Guidance

Pickups happen at the front of the FBO building off Severn Avenue near the end of Davis Islands. Your chauffeur arrives before your wheels touch down, texts you on landing, and meets you at the lobby door with a name sign on request. For departures, we pull up at the same entrance so your bags go straight from the trunk to the aircraft crew.

Ground Transportation Options

Options on the island are thin. A rental car can be arranged through the FBO, taxis must be called in advance, and rideshare drivers can reach the field though wait times on Davis Islands are unpredictable. Public transit near the airfield is limited, and the closest bus routes run along the causeway toward downtown.

Tips for Arriving Passengers

• Share your tail number or charter company name when booking so we can track the flight
• Tell us about oversized items like golf bags, fishing gear, or camera cases
• Allow extra road time on Gasparilla weekends when Bayshore Boulevard closes
• Keep your phone on after landing so your chauffeur can confirm the meeting point

Why a Prebooked Chauffeur Works Best at TPF?

With no taxi stand on site, a spontaneous ride from TPF can mean waiting on a quiet island road after a long flight. A prebooked chauffeur is already parked when you land, knows the one road off Davis Islands, and quotes a flat rate before the trip. Surge pricing, cancelled rideshare trips, and cramped back seats with luggage on your lap never enter the picture.

Tampa Destinations We Serve From Davis Islands

Downtown Tampa, Channelside, and Harbour Island

Most TPF rides head across the Davis Islands bridge into downtown within minutes. We drop guests at waterfront hotels, the Tampa Convention Center, and the offices managed under the City of Tampa downtown district.

Beyond downtown, we drive to Hyde Park, Westshore, Ybor City, Brandon, Temple Terrace, and the University of South Florida area. Our Hillsborough County car service covers daily business travel across the county, while longer runs reach St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Sarasota.

Patients and families flying in for care at Tampa General Hospital can reach the main campus in a few minutes, since the hospital shares Davis Islands with the airfield. We keep sedans and SUVs available for these short but important rides.
