Group transportation at RNO

Reno-Tahoe International is the main airport for Reno and Lake Tahoe. It sits a few minutes southeast of downtown and handles ski season, convention and summer peaks.

Charter vehicles use the commercial positions the airport designates, and larger groups stage nearby. Ski groups bring gear, so vehicle size is set by the bag and ski count.

Transfers to the lake depend on the Mt. Rose Highway, I-80 and US-50 conditions in winter. Operators watch chain controls and adjust.

Flights are tracked, pricing is all-in, and the trip is e-signed and tracked live.
