Eagle County Regional Airport offers a range of ground transportation choices for travelers heading to Aspen, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. While public transportation through the Roaring Fork Transportation Authority (RFTA) is available, it can take over 6 hours and requires multiple transfers, which makes it impractical for most travelers unless they’re on a tight budget. For a more convenient and comfortable journey, most visitors prefer one of the direct transportation options. Here’s a breakdown of the available choices:

Ride-Sharing (Uber/Lyft)

• Pros: Ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft offer the convenience of app-based booking and can be more affordable than other options, especially for solo travelers.
• Cons: Availability may be limited, particularly during peak seasons or inclement weather. Also, the vehicles may not be well-suited for navigating mountain roads in winter conditions, which could pose a safety concern.

Taxi Services

• Pros: Taxis are readily available at the airport, and you don’t need to pre-book. This is a good option if you need immediate transportation.
• Cons: Taxis tend to have higher fares than other options, and they don’t provide the same level of comfort or amenities as private car services. You may also not have as much space for luggage.

Shared Airport Shuttles

• Pros: Shared shuttles are typically more affordable, especially for solo travelers or those traveling light. They also have scheduled routes, making them an easy option for those without specific timing needs.
• Cons: Shared shuttles can make multiple stops, which can extend your travel time significantly. Additionally, they offer less privacy, as you’ll be sharing the ride with other passengers.

Private Car Service (Epic Limo Vail)

• Pros: Epic Limo Vail offers a personalized, direct service with luxury SUVs and professional chauffeurs. This is the best option for those looking for comfort, privacy, and reliability. Whether it’s winter or summer, our chauffeurs are skilled at navigating mountain roads, ensuring a smooth and safe ride.
• Cons: The main drawback is the higher upfront cost. However, for families or groups, it provides excellent value for the comfort and convenience it offers.
