Chauffeurservicestlouis.com arranges private sedan and SUV service to Spirit of St. Louis Airport through vetted local affiliate operators. Spirit of St. Louis Airport, code SUS, is in Chesterfield, Missouri, about 25 miles west of Downtown St. Louis along I-64 and Long Road. It opened in 1965 and serves general aviation and corporate aircraft; no scheduled airlines operate there. The airport is named for Charles Lindbergh's 1927 transatlantic flight. Our Downtown-to-SUS sedan rate starts at $135. Because most passengers arrive on private charters or business jets, we coordinate pickups through your FBO or flight crew. We recommend booking at least 24 hours ahead and providing a tail number when possible.
Pickup procedure at SUS
Your chauffeur meets you in the FBO lobby or at the curb beside your aircraft after you deplane. Spirit of St. Louis has multiple fixed-base operators, so we confirm which FBO you are using before the flight. After landing, proceed to the FBO reception area or call the driver once the crew opens the door. The vehicle will be staged near the FBO parking area. We track general aviation arrivals through flight tracking when a tail number is provided. For departures, we drop you at the correct FBO entrance. Allow extra time during morning rush on I-64 and Highway 141.

Honest limitations
Spirit of St. Louis has no scheduled airline service, so if your FBO changes or we do not receive a tail number, the pickup can be delayed. Construction on I-64, Highway 141, or I-270 can add time, especially during weekday rush. We cannot enter the ramp or apron, so you must meet the driver at the FBO lobby or designated curb.
