Sprinter Van Rental at Wilkes-Barre Scranton (AVP) Airport

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Van Rental at Lehigh Wilkes-Barre Scranton International (AVP) Airport

Groups landing at AVP want one vehicle that carries every passenger, swallows every bag, and pulls away the moment the last traveler clears baggage claim. Our Wilkes-Barre Scranton International (AVP) Airport Sprinter van rental delivers exactly that for parties of up to 14 anywhere in Pennsylvania. As part of our Pennsylvania airport Sprinter van service, we station chauffeurs at the Avoca terminal for corporate arrivals, wedding parties bound for the Poconos, campus visits, and family reunions spread across Luzerne and Lackawanna counties.

The Wyoming Valley and the Lackawanna Valley sit close together, yet a group split across three rideshare cars can arrive at three different times. A single Union Limousine Sprinter van keeps colleagues, relatives, or teammates together from the terminal curb through Interstate 81 and onto whichever doorstep comes next.

Why Groups Choose a Sprinter Van at AVP?

A Sprinter van gives a party of eight to fourteen the headroom to stand, the aisle to move, and a rear cargo bay sized for a week of luggage. Wide sliding doors make loading quick even during a lake effect snow squall, and tall windows turn the ride through the Moosic Mountains into part of the trip.

• Room for up to 14 passengers with individual seating and no middle seat squeeze
• Rear luggage compartment that handles hard cases, golf bags, ski gear, and trade show crates
• Chauffeur monitors your inbound flight and adjusts the pickup time on their own
• One fixed quote for the group, which is easier to expense than a stack of receipts
• Climate control, USB power, and reading lights for early departures and late arrivals

Corporate Arrivals in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre

Regional headquarters, distribution centers along the Interstate 81 corridor, and the growing office parks near Montage Mountain bring teams through AVP every week. We meet visiting executives at baggage claim, load presentation materials in the back, and deliver the group to downtown Scranton, the Mohegan Pennsylvania resort, or a Hazleton plant in one movement. Passengers can open laptops on the way and walk into the meeting prepared.

Weddings, Reunions, and Pocono Getaways

Guests flying in for a wedding at a Wilkes-Barre venue or a lakeside celebration in the Poconos rarely know the area. A Sprinter van with a local chauffeur removes the guesswork. We can run a loop between AVP, the hotel block, and the ceremony site, then stay on the clock for the return trip after the reception ends.

University Visits and Sports Travel

The University of Scranton, Wilkes University, King's College, and Marywood University all sit within thirty minutes of the runway. Admissions groups, visiting faculty, and traveling teams book Sprinter vans for campus tours, tournaments at Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza, and RailRiders games at PNC Field. Coaches appreciate that equipment rides with the players.

Our Full Fleet for AVP Ground Transportation

Sprinter vans are the most requested Union Limousine vehicle for AVP groups, though every trip has its own headcount. Every vehicle in our Sprinter van service lineup and the wider fleet below can be dispatched to the Avoca terminal.

• Sedans, up to 3 passengers: solo executives, couples, and airport transfers with light luggage
• SUVs, up to 6 passengers: small teams, families with car seats, and winter travel on hilly routes
• Stretch limousines, up to 20 passengers: wedding parties, milestone birthdays, and celebration arrivals
• Sprinter vans, up to 14 passengers: corporate groups, campus visits, and Pocono weekend trips
• Party buses, up to 30 passengers: bachelor and bachelorette weekends, concert nights, and casino outings
• Mini charter buses, up to 35 passengers: conference shuttles, sports teams, and reunion transfers
• Full size charter buses, up to 56 passengers: church groups, school trips, and statewide tours

Travelers who need a smaller vehicle can compare our AVP airport limo service for stretch options or our AVP airport car service for sedans and SUVs. Groups continuing to the Lehigh Valley can also arrange Lehigh Valley International Airport Sprinter van rental for connections through ABE.

Service Area Across Pennsylvania

Our Sprinter van service in Pennsylvania covers the entire Commonwealth, and AVP is the natural gateway for the northeastern counties. From the terminal, common destinations include Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Pittston, Kingston, Dunmore, Clarks Summit, Hazleton, and the Pocono resort towns of Lake Harmony, Tannersville, and Jim Thorpe. Longer runs reach Harrisburg, Allentown, State College, and Philadelphia, and we regularly cross into New York City for groups who prefer to fly into a calmer airport and finish the trip by road.

Local businesses hosting visitors can pair airport pickups with our Luzerne County car service and Lackawanna County car service for meetings, dinners, and hotel transfers during the stay. Route planning accounts for construction on Interstate 81, tolls on the Northeast Extension, and seasonal traffic heading toward Montage Mountain.

About Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport (AVP)

Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport sits at 100 Terminal Rd, Avoca, PA 18641, United States, in Pittston Township midway between the two cities in its name. The airport information line is +1 570-602-2000, and the official website is http://flyavp.com/.

History and Regional Importance

Commercial service began in the late 1940s with Colonial Airlines and American Airlines, and the three letter code AVP comes from the nearby borough of Avoca. The field earned its international designation in 1975 when cargo flights to Canada started. Today the airport is owned jointly by Luzerne and Lackawanna counties and governed by a joint airport board drawn from both counties, with a 7,500 foot main runway and a modern terminal that opened in 2006. For northeastern Pennsylvania and the Pocono Mountains, AVP is the closest commercial airport and a key economic engine for the region.

Airlines and Domestic Destinations

Three carriers currently serve AVP with scheduled passenger flights. American Airlines connects the airport to its Charlotte and Chicago O'Hare hubs, United Airlines flies to Chicago O'Hare and Washington Dulles, and Breeze Airways operates leisure routes to Orlando, Tampa, Fort Myers, Myrtle Beach, and Fort Lauderdale. Schedules shift by season, so travelers should confirm current routes before booking ground transportation for a group.

Terminal Information and Passenger Traffic

AVP operates a single compact terminal. Ticketing and the TSA checkpoint occupy the upper level, and baggage claim, rental car counters, and the ground transportation curb are on the lower level. Walking from the gate to the curb takes only a few minutes, which is one reason groups find the airport so easy to use. Passenger numbers have climbed sharply: the airport handled 469,092 total passengers in 2024, a 31 percent increase over 2023, and monthly boardings continued to set records through 2025 as Breeze added Florida and Carolina routes.

Parking, Pickup, and Ground Transportation

Parking Overview

The airport offers a covered garage plus surface lots A, B, and D within a short walk of the terminal, with roughly 1,300 spaces in total. Lots B and D accept credit cards only, the garage and Lot A also take cash in a designated lane, and the My AVP loyalty program rewards frequent parkers with points. Current rates and real time availability are posted on the AVP parking page, and a free cell phone lot is available for drivers waiting on arriving passengers.

Pickup and Drop Off Guidance

Departing passengers can be dropped at the curb in front of the terminal doors. Vehicles may not be left unattended at the curb, and anyone waiting for an arriving flight should use the cell phone lot until the passenger has bags in hand. Our chauffeurs follow the same rule: they hold at the lot, watch the flight status, and pull to the lower level curb the moment your group texts that luggage has arrived. Meet and greet inside baggage claim is available on request.

Ground Transportation Options

Rental car brands operate counters inside the terminal, and taxis and app based rideshare drivers pick up outside the lower level. The airport does not run scheduled shuttles to other cities, so groups heading to Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, or the Poconos arrange their own transportation. Local transit connects the airport area to downtown Scranton and Wilkes-Barre on weekday schedules, which suits individual commuters. A party of fourteen with luggage needs a dedicated vehicle.

Tips for Arriving Passengers

• Text your chauffeur once you land so the van is at the curb when your bags appear
• Winter arrivals should plan for snow on the ridge roads leading to Scranton and Wilkes-Barre
• Baggage claim is small and fast, so gather the whole group before exiting to the curb
• Pack chargers in a carry on; the ride to the Poconos can take an hour depending on the resort
• Ask about hourly service if your group has stops at the hotel and a venue on arrival day

Why Travelers Prebook a Chauffeur at AVP?

Taxi and rideshare supply at a mid sized airport thins out at night and during early morning bank runs, and a fourteen person group would need several separate cars anyway. A prebooked Sprinter van is confirmed before the flight leaves, tracked during the flight, and waiting when it lands. The rate is agreed in advance, luggage space is guaranteed, and the chauffeur knows the route past the Wyoming Valley Mall and onto the Cross Valley Expressway without checking a phone. Visitors exploring the region can even schedule a stop at Steamtown National Historic Site in downtown Scranton or a walking tour on Public Square described on the City of Wilkes-Barre website.
