Ruston inbound — historic waterfront community. Private chauffeured pickup at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport direct to any Ruston address. We meet you at your baggage claim door — you don't walk to the 3rd-floor garage. Automatic inbound flight tracking. No surge pricing. Meet & Greet inside the terminal available as a $25 add-on.
Ruston is a small waterfront town adjacent to Tacoma's Point Defiance Park — the historic 1906 ASARCO copper smelter company town that survives today as a 1,055-population community surrounded on three sides by Tacoma. The SeaTac drive is approximately 35 miles and takes 45 to 60 minutes via I-5 south and the Ruston Way waterfront route.
Ruston occupies just 0.34 square miles of dense waterfront real estate — a compact grid of Craftsman homes, boutique shops along N Pearl Street, and Point Defiance Park on the north edge (one of Tacoma's crown jewels with the zoo, aquarium, and 5-mile scenic drive). Point Ruston, the mixed-use development along the waterfront, is a common inbound destination for hotel guests and residents.
Standard curbside is included with every ride. Meet & Greet is a $25 upgrade for those who want a name sign inside the terminal.
After collecting your luggage, walk to the nearest exit door on Arrivals Level 3, call our dispatch line, and read us the door number. Your chauffeur pulls up to your specific door within 5-10 minutes. No walking through skybridges, no elevators to the 3rd-floor garage, no searching parking stalls.
Your chauffeur is inside the terminal at your baggage claim carousel holding a printed name sign when you exit the gate area. They help with luggage and walk you to the vehicle. Ideal for international arrivals, first-time visitors, elderly passengers, and clients you want to impress.
