A driver waiting when you land at Rifle, a winter-equipped vehicle for the about 65 miles to Aspen, and one of us following the flight and the roads until you're home.

Adding to your stay doesn't charge anything. We confirm the vehicle, driver and exact price before you approve anything.

Overview

Rifle Garfield County Airport is about 65 miles from Aspen, about 1 hr 15 by car. The route avoids Glenwood Canyon; the airport is open around the clock and is our first choice for private aircraft in 2027.

The driver tracks the flight and meets you on arrival. We follow the trip from Aspen, adjust for delays, and tell the house when to expect you.
