How an arrival at PDX works
Your reservation is linked to the flight number, so a delay, a diversion or an early landing moves the pickup time automatically. You are given thirty minutes of complimentary wait from wheels-down on a domestic arrival and ninety on an international one, because immigration and baggage are unpredictable in a way the airline schedule is not.
Curbside pickup is the faster and cheaper option: the chauffeur holds in the cell lot, you text when you have your bags, and the car is at the designated pickup zone within a few minutes. Meet-and-greet puts the chauffeur inside with a name board, helps with luggage and walks you out — the right choice for first-time visitors, guests you are hosting, children, and anyone with mobility needs.
Departures from PDX
For departures we work backwards from the terminal arrival time recommended for your carrier and cabin, add the traffic profile for that specific day and hour, and give you a pickup time. For international departures out of the larger hubs that usually means three hours before scheduled departure; for a domestic morning flight with pre-check it is often ninety minutes.
Getting into Portland from PDX
Portland is an easy driving city by American standards and the airport is twenty minutes from downtown. The distinctive work here is the Willamette Valley: pinot noir country begins about an hour south and full-day winery charters are a substantial share of what we run, particularly between May and October.
Local note. Willamette Valley tastings are mostly by appointment and are ninety minutes apart. Four wineries is a good day; six is a bad one. The chauffeur will tell you which of your list fits.
