BOOK A RIDE

WHEN SHOULD YOU HEAD TO THE AIRPORT?
Charley’s Taxi recommends arriving at the airport 2 hours prior to domestic flights and 3 hours prior to international flights to account for traffic delays and long lines for agriculture screening, flight and baggage check-in, and TSA security. During slow times you may breeze through all of those, but when it gets busy you’ll be glad you got there so early. Charley’s Taxi is not responsible for missed flights.
