FBO to anywhere

The car is at the aircraft, not at a terminal

Ground transportation built around the tail number: FBO to hotel, meeting, residence, event or a second airport, with the arrival time that the flight actually has.

Tail number, FBO and timing — we will confirm the plan.

What this service handles

Private aviation exists to remove waiting, and ground transportation is where the waiting comes back. A schedule that moves by an hour, an FBO the chauffeur has not been to, a passenger standing in a lobby because the car was booked against the original slot.

VaultPac captures the aviation detail on the movement itself — tail number, operator, FBO, arrival — so dispatch is working from the flight rather than from a street address that happens to be near an airport. A repositioned arrival is a change on the board, not a rebooking.

Vehicles run from executive sedan through SUV and Sprinter. Where the party has more bags than the passenger vehicle should carry, or where the bags are going to the hotel while the passenger goes to a meeting, the luggage moves on its own movement under the same trip.

How VaultPac coordinates it

Every booking is a trip. A trip carries trip services, and each service breaks into the individual movements that actually have to happen — which is why the people and the bags do not have to travel the same way.

  1. Trip
  2. Trip services
  3. Individual movements
  • FBO coordination

    Tail number, operator, FBO and arrival details captured on the movement so the vehicle meets the aircraft rather than the terminal.

  • Passenger movement

    Sedan, SUV, Sprinter, minibus and coach movements priced and dispatched by the transportation engine.

  • Trip → Trip Services → Movements

    One trip holds every service on it, and each service breaks into the individual movements that have to happen. A single booking can carry people and bags on different vehicles and different clocks without becoming two bookings.

  • Luggage movement

    Bags booked as their own movement, with their own route, their own timing and their own proof.

  • Multiple vehicles

    Several vehicles on one itinerary, each with its own assignment, timing and passenger list.

  • Dispatch monitoring

    Every movement on one board while it runs, so a late arrival is seen rather than reported.

  • Operator assignment

    Movements assigned to a specific operator and vehicle, with the assignment visible to dispatch throughout.

  • Masked communication

    Passenger and chauffeur reach each other without either holding the other's number.

  • Changes during the trip

    Times, stops, vehicles and passenger counts can change after a trip has started without rebooking it.

What runs this movement

Assignment reads the passenger count and the bag count, so the vehicle that arrives fits both. Larger movements run several.

Why VaultPac for this

  • The movement carries the tail number, operator and FBO, so the vehicle meets the aircraft.
  • A schedule that moves is a change on the board rather than a cancelled booking.
  • Luggage can leave for the hotel while the passenger leaves for the meeting.
  • Covers the Chicago-area fields, not only O'Hare and Midway.

Important

  • VaultPac serves passengers arriving and departing at FBOs across the Chicago area. It does not claim a contracted or preferred-vendor relationship with any FBO brand or handler.

Questions

Which Chicago-area airports do you serve?

Midway and O'Hare, plus the regional and general-aviation fields around the city — Chicago Executive, DuPage, Gary, Aurora, Lewis University, Lansing and Waukegan among them. Tell us the field and the FBO and we will confirm before you book.

Can the vehicle meet the aircraft planeside?

That is the FBO's decision, not ours, and it varies by field and by operator. We record the FBO on the movement and work to their procedure — planeside where it is permitted, the lobby where it is not.

What happens if the flight slips?

The movement moves. Times, stops and vehicles can change after a trip has started without rebooking it, which is the normal condition in private aviation rather than an exception.

Do you have a relationship with Signature or Atlantic?

We serve passengers at FBOs across the Chicago area. We do not claim a contracted or preferred-vendor status with any FBO brand, and we would rather say that plainly than imply otherwise.
