ShuttleFinder

What ShuttleFinder does

ShuttleFinder (legal entity ShuttleFinder.com) is a privately held, bootstrapped online marketplace that aggregates and compares airport ground-transportation options for U.S. travelers. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Chicago, IL, the company operates shuttlefinder.com as a self-serve booking platform that lists shared vans, private vans, and private cars across 60+ U.S. airports in five regional clusters (California & West, Texas & Southwest, Illinois & Midwest, Florida & Southeast, and New York & Northeast).

The platform is a thin aggregation layer on top of an exclusive partnership with Mozio, which provides the underlying shuttle-provider inventory and booking infrastructure. ShuttleFinder surfaces operator options including SuperShuttle (shared blue vans, budget tier), Execucar (private/luxury cars), and regional providers such as Boise Super Shuttle and Portland Super Shuttle. The technology stack is a standard web-based reservation and comparison platform with an extensive footprint of airport-specific SEO landing pages (e.g., /lax, /den, /atl) that drive organic acquisition. There are no disclosed proprietary AI/ML, data, or integration capabilities, no mobile app, and no API.

ShuttleFinder monetizes via marketplace commissions or transaction-based take rates on each booking routed through the platform, with pricing presented in three tiers (Shared Van, Private Van, Private Car) on a pay-as-you-go basis. The company has raised no external funding, operates with no disclosed headcount or management team, and has announced that it is no longer accepting new reservations for airport shuttles while continuing to support existing reservations.

Core offering

ShuttleFinder is an online aggregator and booking platform for airport shuttle services. It connects travelers with multiple shuttle providers (including SuperShuttle and Execucar) through a partnership with Mozio, allowing users to compare and reserve shared vans, private vans, and private cars across 60+ U.S. airports. The platform earns revenue via commissions on completed bookings rather than operating its own fleet.

Product overview

ShuttleFinder is an online airport shuttle reservation platform that aggregates and compares shuttle services from partnered providers, allowing travelers to book rides to and from U.S. airports. The core offering consists of three service types: Private Vans for non-stop group transport, Private Cars for luxury individual/douple travel, and Shared Vans as an economical multi-stop option. All services are backed by certified, professionally trained drivers offering 24/7 availability. The platform serves as a metasearch and booking aggregator rather than operating as a direct shuttle provider.

Broad incumbents

• Blacklane: Global pre-booked ground transportation platform offering airport transfers in sedans, vans, and SUVs across 50+ countries; competes with ShuttleFinder's private-car tier at much larger scale.
• Booking.com Transfers: Major OTA with an integrated airport transfer marketplace that competes for the same airport-shuttle search intent that ShuttleFinder targets via its 60+ airport SEO pages.

Direct peers

• Mozio: Ground transportation aggregator and ShuttleFinder's exclusive supply/booking partner; operates a near-identical metasearch model across airports and cities worldwide.
• Go Airport Shuttle: Long-standing online aggregator that lets travelers compare and book shared-ride, private van, and sedan airport shuttle options — directly overlaps ShuttleFinder's three-tier product structure.
• Carmel Car & Limousine: Online booking platform for chauffeured sedans, SUVs, and vans serving airports and corporate accounts; directly comparable private-car / private-van offering to ShuttleFinder.
• Carey International / ExecuCar: Execucar is a ShuttleFinder-listed premium private-car partner, and parent Carey International operates a global chauffeured ground transport network overlapping ShuttleFinder's private-car tier.
• GroundLink: Pre-booked airport ground transportation marketplace with black-car and shuttle options; mirrors ShuttleFinder's airport-to-door use case with similar commission-based revenue model.
• SuperShuttle: Iconic shared-ride airport shuttle brand and former ShuttleFinder supply partner; while operations wound down in several markets, it represents the same airport-shuttle aggregation category.

Regional players

• Jayride: Airport transfer marketplace aggregator operating primarily in Australia and New Zealand; comparable aggregator business model but in a different geographic footprint than ShuttleFinder's U.S.-only coverage.

Emerging players

• Wingz: Pre-booked, flat-rate airport rideshare service competing specifically for the airport transfer niche that ShuttleFinder serves, with an app-first booking experience.
