Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Taxis

Private shuttle and taxi services, such as Alpine Express, are available but require advance reservations, especially during peak ski and summer seasons. Traditional taxis may be available but are not guaranteed without a prior booking. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft have extremely limited or no availability in the area.

Rental Cars

Several major car rental companies have counters located inside the airport terminal. Options include Avis, Budget, and Hertz. It is highly recommended to book a vehicle well in advance, as the fleet is limited and can sell out during busy periods. 4WD or AWD vehicles are strongly advised for winter travel.

Public Transportation

The Gunnison Valley RTA (Rural Transportation Authority) provides bus service from the airport. The bus connects the airport to the town of Gunnison, where passengers can transfer to a connecting bus to Crested Butte and Mt. Crested Butte. The airport bus schedule is generally timed to coordinate with flight arrivals.

Great airport to land at in any aircraft. Great scenery and always a pleaure to visit.

Friendly FBO Posted by Tony on August 12, 2007

Landed here in the Husky just to take a break and stretch my legs. Didn't buy fuel or souvenirs, but the staff made me feel welcome. Lent me the courtesy car to have a look at the downtown. The FBO manager and I sat on the porch and discussed flying and life in general.

There is a crosswind runway here, it is grass/gravel and hard to see. Actually, it is easier to see here on Google Earth than in the afternoon sunlight.
