Blue Grass (LEX) Airport Limo Service

Stretch Limo Service to and from Blue Grass (LEX) Airport

Flights into Lexington touch down six miles west of downtown, directly across Versailles Road from Keeneland Race Course, and the first thing most travelers want is a chauffeur who is already waiting. Our Blue Grass (LEX) Airport Limo Service covers every arrival and departure at LEX with a licensed chauffeur, a late model vehicle and a fixed price confirmed before you fly. Union Limousine has provided chauffeured transportation since 1997, and the same standards shape our Kentucky airport limo service across Fayette County, the Bluegrass region and the whole Commonwealth.

Why Travelers Choose Our Blue Grass Airport Limo Service?

Blue Grass Airport is compact, which makes it pleasant to use, and it is growing quickly, which makes parking and curbside space tighter every season. A reserved Union Limousine chauffeur removes both pressures. Every LEX booking includes the following:

• Flight monitoring for all Allegiant, American, Delta and United arrivals, so your pickup time moves with your plane
• A curbside greeting outside baggage claim at the single LEX terminal, with help loading luggage
• Fixed, all inclusive pricing quoted in advance, with tolls, fuel and gratuity spelled out
• Licensed, background checked chauffeurs who know Versailles Road, New Circle Road and the I 64 and I 75 interchanges
• Vehicles detailed before every trip, with bottled water and the cabin temperature set before you step in
• Round the clock dispatch for 5 am departures and the late Delta LaGuardia arrival that lands after 10 pm

Chauffeured Rides for Every LEX Occasion

Lexington draws horse industry professionals, bourbon tourists, university visitors and corporate travelers, and each group needs something slightly different from an airport ride.

Keeneland, Horse Country and Bourbon Trail Visitors

Spring and fall race meets at Keeneland sit a few minutes from the LEX terminal, and the Kentucky Horse Park, WinStar Farm and the Thoroughbred farms along Old Frankfort Pike are a short drive past the airport fence. We run transfers straight to the track, to farm tours and to distilleries in Versailles, Lawrenceburg and Frankfort, with the vehicle on standby for the return leg if you prefer one chauffeur for the entire day.

Corporate Travel to Lexington Business Districts

Executives heading to downtown Lexington, the Hamburg Pavilion corridor or the Coldstream Research Campus want a quiet cabin and a predictable timeline. Our LEX airport car service pairs black sedans and SUVs with chauffeurs who understand that a client dinner at 7 pm means being parked outside the restaurant at 6:50. Corporate accounts receive consolidated invoicing and a single point of contact for every booking.

Weddings, UK Game Days and Family Travel

Wedding parties flying in for ceremonies at Lexington estates, University of Kentucky alumni returning for football at Kroger Field or basketball at Rupp Arena, and families arriving for Thanksgiving in the suburbs all book with us. Child seats, extra luggage space and multi vehicle coordination are arranged at the time of reservation so nobody waits at the curb.

Our Fleet for Blue Grass Airport Transfers

Each vehicle class below is matched to a passenger count and a purpose, and every unit follows the same detailing and maintenance schedule.

Sedans (Up to 3 Passengers)

Executive sedans are the standard choice for business travelers and couples. They fit three passengers with two large suitcases plus carry on bags, and they suit downtown hotels, the University of Kentucky campus and Keeneland on a weekday.

SUVs (Up to 6 Passengers)

Full size SUVs carry up to six passengers with generous luggage room, which works for families, golf groups bound for Kearney Hill and small corporate teams traveling together. They also handle winter weather on rural Bluegrass roads with confidence.

Stretch Limousines (Up to 20 Passengers)

Stretch limousines seat anywhere from 8 to 20 depending on the configuration. They are booked for Keeneland race day arrivals, Breeders' Cup weekend, wedding parties and milestone birthdays where the ride from LEX is part of the celebration.

Sprinter Vans (Up to 14 Passengers)

Sprinter vans move up to 14 passengers with standing headroom and a dedicated luggage area. They are the workhorse for bourbon tour groups, bridal parties, sports teams and corporate retreats heading from LEX to Frankfort, Versailles or Bardstown.

Party Buses (Up to 30 Passengers)

Party buses seat up to 30 with perimeter seating, lighting and sound systems. Bachelor and bachelorette groups flying into Lexington for a distillery weekend, and alumni groups arriving for a UK home game, book them so the group stays together from the terminal onward.

Mini Charter Buses (Up to 35 Passengers)

Mini coaches carry up to 35 passengers in forward facing seats with undercarriage luggage bays. They are sized for conference delegations, equestrian event staff and school groups arriving on a single flight.

Full Size Charter Buses (Up to 56 Passengers)

Full size motorcoaches seat up to 56 and include restrooms, reclining seats and overhead storage. They are reserved for conventions at Central Bank Center, large wedding transfers and tour operators arriving at LEX with a full manifest.

Service Area Across Kentucky from LEX

Lexington is the hub, and our chauffeurs drive statewide.

Lexington Neighborhoods and Fayette County

Transfers to downtown Lexington, Chevy Chase, Ashland Park, Beaumont, Hamburg, Masterson Station and the Distillery District typically take 15 to 25 minutes from the LEX curb. Hotels near Rupp Arena and along Newtown Pike are the most common drop points for conference guests.

Bluegrass Region Towns

Georgetown, Versailles, Nicholasville, Richmond, Winchester, Paris, Frankfort, Danville and Berea all sit within an hour of the airport. Frankfort, the state capital, brings a steady flow of government and association travel, and visitors checking agency contacts or state events before a trip often start at the official Commonwealth of Kentucky portal. Our limo service in Kentucky reaches every one of these communities with the same fixed pricing used inside Lexington.

Longer Runs and Airport Connections

When a schedule change leaves you at LEX with a connection elsewhere, we drive to Louisville Muhammad Ali International, Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International in Hebron and Bowling Green. Our Kentucky airport chauffeur service also handles the reverse, bringing passengers from those airports into Lexington for Keeneland, Rupp Arena or the Bourbon Trail.

Blue Grass (LEX) Airport Information

Knowing how LEX is laid out makes the ride smoother. Here is a traveler's briefing on the airport itself.

Quick Reference

• Airport Name: Blue Grass Airport
• Airport Code: LEX
• Address: 4000 Terminal Dr, Lexington, KY 40510, United States
• Phone: +1 859 425 3100
• Official Website: bluegrassairport.com

History and Regional Importance

The airfield opened in the 1930s on farmland west of Lexington, and scheduled airline service began shortly after World War II, a run of commercial flying the airport marked as 79 years in its 2025 results. The current terminal dates to 1977 and has been enlarged several times, including a Concourse B extension in 2007 that added six gates. Operated by a public airport board for Lexington and Fayette County, the airport covers 911 acres with a 7,004 foot main runway and a 4,000 foot crosswind runway opened in 2010. It is the primary gateway for central and southeastern Kentucky and the arrival point for Keeneland racing, the region's Thoroughbred sales and the Breeders' Cup when Lexington hosts it.

Airlines Operating from LEX

Four carriers serve Blue Grass Airport: Allegiant Air, American Airlines through American Eagle regional partners, Delta Air Lines with Delta Connection, and United Airlines through United Express. Regional operators including PSA, SkyWest and Envoy fly many of the mainline branded schedules, and Delta carries roughly a quarter of all LEX passengers.

Domestic Destinations

Nonstop service reaches 19 hubs and leisure markets across the country:

• Allegiant: Fort Lauderdale, Orlando Sanford, Punta Gorda, St. Petersburg/Clearwater and Sarasota Bradenton, plus seasonal Destin/Fort Walton Beach and Myrtle Beach
• American: Charlotte, Chicago O'Hare, Dallas/Fort Worth and Philadelphia, plus seasonal Miami
• Delta: Atlanta, Detroit, New York LaGuardia and Washington Reagan National, plus seasonal Minneapolis/St. Paul
• United: Chicago O'Hare and Denver, with the Denver route upgraded to larger Airbus aircraft

Terminal Information

LEX has one passenger terminal with ticketing, a single security checkpoint and baggage claim all within a short walk, and gates split between Concourse A and Concourse B. Walking from the curb to any gate takes under ten minutes, which is why many Kentucky travelers prefer it to larger hubs. Shops, dining and a business center sit past security, and the airport has announced a multi phase development program called Future LEX to expand passenger areas in the coming years.

Passenger Traffic

Blue Grass Airport handled 1,614,053 passengers in 2025, an all time record and 2.7 percent above the 1,571,805 recorded in 2024, which had itself passed the 2019 mark. Atlanta is the busiest route, followed by Chicago on American and United. Spring and fall Keeneland meets, Breeders' Cup weekend and University of Kentucky move in and graduation weekends are the peak periods for curbside congestion.

Parking Overview

Short term parking is capped at $17 per day and long term at $14 per day, both with the first 30 minutes free, and valet runs $25 per day in front of the terminal. The long term lot regularly fills during peak travel, at which point an overflow lot opens with a shuttle, and the airport posts live lot status on its parking page. Parking is ticketless with license plate recognition and card only payment, and a free cell phone waiting area sits on Terminal Drive before the terminal.

Pick Up and Drop Off Guidance

Departing passengers are dropped at the terminal curb in front of ticketing. Arriving passengers exit baggage claim to the same curb, where taxis and hotel shuttles stage, while rideshare pickups are directed to a signed Ride App area between the terminal and the rental car facility, as described in the airport's ground transportation guidance. Our chauffeurs meet you inside at baggage claim with a name sign, then walk you to the vehicle, so there is no app to open and no zone to find.

Ground Transportation Options

Alongside chauffeured service, LEX offers curbside taxis, Lyft and Uber, hotel courtesy shuttles, on site rental car counters and a Lextran express bus to the downtown Transit Center on Vine Street that runs weekdays from 6 am to 6 pm. Taxi supply thins after the last evening arrivals, and the bus does not operate on weekends, which is when many Keeneland and UK visitors fly in.

Tips for Arriving Passengers

• Share your airline and flight number when booking so dispatch can track delays out of Atlanta, Charlotte or Chicago
• Turn your phone on before deplaning; a text from your chauffeur with the meeting point and vehicle description will be waiting
• Fog and ice are common in the Bluegrass from December through February, so check the National Weather Service Louisville forecast, which covers Lexington, before an early departure
• Allow extra time on Keeneland race days and UK home football Saturdays, when Versailles Road traffic builds quickly
• For departures, LEX has one checkpoint; the TSA security screening overview explains what to expect, and arriving 90 minutes ahead is comfortable for most domestic flights

Why a Prebooked Chauffeur Beats Taxis and Rideshare?

Taxi availability at LEX fades after the last evening arrivals, and rideshare pricing surges on race days and during the Breeders' Cup. A prebooked chauffeur is confirmed days in advance at a fixed rate, tracks your flight, waits through delays and meets you at baggage claim. For groups, a single Sprinter or coach replaces four or five separate rideshare cars and keeps luggage together.
