Chauffeured car service at FXE
Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE) is a general-aviation and business-jet field in Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, Florida — one of the region’s busiest executive airports, with four fixed-base operators: Banyan Air Service, Signature Aviation, Atlantic Aviation and W Aviation. Aura Palm Limo is a chauffeured car, limo and group transportation service, available 24/7, that meets a private arrival planeside at the FBO and drives to or from any address across South Florida. FXE sits about 42 miles and 48 minutes south of central Palm Beach, about 5 miles north of downtown Fort Lauderdale and about 7.5 miles from Port Everglades, and Aura Palm serves it alongside Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties.

Included in every transfer
- Planeside at the FBO The chauffeur waits at Banyan, Signature, Atlantic or W Aviation, so you step from the aircraft to the car without crossing a terminal.
- Coordinated on the tail number The pickup is arranged with the FBO against your aircraft, so an early or shifted arrival is met rather than missed.
- Complimentary Wi-Fi Every FXE transfer carries onboard Wi-Fi, so a Broward meeting can begin in the car.
- Request your chauffeur A driver who already knows your routine and the FXE ramps can be kept on your account for repeat trips.
- Unplanned stops A stop between the FBO and your address — an office, a hotel, Port Everglades — can be added without rebooking.
- Professionally trained chauffeurs Vetted, discreet chauffeurs used to working an FBO ramp and a business schedule.
Chauffeured service vs. an on-demand ride
| Aura Palm chauffeured | On-demand rideshare or taxi | |
|---|---|---|
| Where you are met | Planeside at your FBO — Banyan, Signature, Atlantic or W Aviation — with the meeting point set with the FBO before you land. | A car summoned after the jet parks, then a wait at the FBO for whatever is dispatched to a private field where pickups are thin. |
| Timing to the aircraft | Coordinated with the FBO on the tail number, so the car is on the ramp side as you step down. | An on-demand car has nothing tracking the aircraft, so a slot change simply resets when you start looking. |
| Who drives | A vetted, professionally trained chauffeur assigned to the booking, requestable by name for repeat FXE trips. | Whichever driver accepts the request, matched at the moment rather than assigned in advance. |
| The vehicle | Chosen at booking from a sedan to a 55-passenger coach, deep-cleaned, with Wi-Fi and water aboard. | Whatever the accepting driver happens to be in that day, sized to a tier rather than your party. |
| The onward leg | Booked door-to-door to any South Florida address, group-capable, with unplanned stops allowed. | Arranged ad hoc, one leg at a time, with a group left to split across cars. |

What arrival actually looks like
A four-FBO field, not a terminal
FXE is a working executive airport with four fixed-base operators — Banyan Air Service, Signature Aviation, Atlantic Aviation and W Aviation — rather than a commercial terminal. Which one matters: it decides which ramp the chauffeur pulls to and where your luggage is handed over. Aura Palm confirms the FBO with you when the transfer is booked, so the car is at the right building as the aircraft parks, and the walk is from the cabin door to the back seat rather than through a concourse.
Close to Broward business and the cruise port
FXE sits about 5 miles north of downtown Fort Lauderdale and about 7.5 miles from Port Everglades, so a jet in here connects fast to a Broward meeting or a sailing. That is the airport’s working pattern — a short executive hop south, or a luggage-sized run to the ship — as much as the roughly 42-mile, 48-minute drive north to Palm Beach. Figures are approximate driving distances; the real door-to-door time depends on your exact address, which is why every trip is quoted on the specific route.
Timing a private arrival
A private flight does not run on a published schedule, so the pickup is built around the tail number instead. Aura Palm coordinates with the FBO on the expected arrival and holds the car for it, and a departure works the same way in reverse — a home or hotel pickup timed to your slot and delivered to the FBO. Book 24 to 48 hours ahead where you can; a late change to a private itinerary can often still be covered because dispatch is staffed around the clock.
Frequently asked
Which FBOs does Aura Palm meet at Fort Lauderdale Executive?
FXE has four fixed-base operators — Banyan Air Service, Signature Aviation, Atlantic Aviation and W Aviation — and Aura Palm meets a private arrival at whichever one the aircraft parks at.
Where does the chauffeur meet a private-jet arrival at FXE?
At the FBO itself — the car is on the ramp side as you step off, with no commercial terminal to cross and no baggage claim to wait at.
How far is Fort Lauderdale Executive from Palm Beach?
FXE is about 42 miles from central Palm Beach, roughly a 48-minute chauffeured run north up Interstate 95.
Is FXE close to downtown Fort Lauderdale?
Yes. Downtown Fort Lauderdale is about 5 miles south of the airport, a short chauffeured hop for a business arrival.
Can you run from FXE to Port Everglades for a cruise?
Yes. Port Everglades is about 7.5 miles from FXE, and the vehicle is sized to a sailing party and its luggage rather than only its headcount.
How does the chauffeur time an FXE pickup to a private flight?
The arrival is coordinated with the FBO on the tail number, so the car is waiting as the aircraft parks rather than on a fixed clock.
What vehicles can meet a flight at FXE?
Anything from a 3-passenger luxury sedan to a 55-passenger charter bus, chosen for the party and its luggage when the transfer is booked.
Can you move a group that flies into FXE together?
Yes. A party arriving on one aircraft rides in a Jet Sprinter, Executive Sprinter or coach so nobody waits on a second car at the FBO.
Is Aura Palm available around the clock at FXE?
Yes. Aura Palm Limo runs 24 hours a day, so an early-morning slot or a late-night jet into FXE is handled the same way.
How far ahead should I book a Fort Lauderdale Executive transfer?
Reserve 24 to 48 hours ahead where you can, and 4 to 6 weeks out for holidays and peak weekends, though a late private-jet change can often still be covered.
Do you handle departures from FXE as well as arrivals?
Yes. A home or hotel pickup is timed to your departure slot and delivered to the FBO, the reverse of an arrival run.
Can I request the same chauffeur for repeat trips to FXE?
Yes. A specific chauffeur can be requested, so a driver who knows your routine and the FBO can be kept on your account.
Planning a transfer through FXE
Why the FBO, not the terminal, is the whole difference
A transfer at FXE is nothing like a commercial-airport pickup, and the reason is the fixed-base operator. There is no baggage claim, no arrivals hall and no rideshare lot — you land, the aircraft taxis to Banyan, Signature, Atlantic or W Aviation, and the chauffeur is waiting on the ramp side of that building. Because private fields see far fewer ground cars than a commercial terminal, an unplanned car is the wrong bet here; the pickup is arranged with the FBO in advance, against your tail number, so it is simply there. Aura Palm’s chauffeurs are used to that flow — the ramp, the handoff of luggage, the discretion an executive arrival expects.
What FXE connects to
Fort Lauderdale Executive is a Broward County field with a working radius that is mostly local. Downtown Fort Lauderdale is about 5 miles south, so a jet in for a meeting is a fifteen-minute car; Port Everglades is about 7.5 miles, which makes FXE a natural jet-to-ship connection for a cruise, with the vehicle sized to the party’s luggage rather than only its headcount. Palm Beach is the longer leg — about 42 miles and 48 minutes north on I-95 — and Boca Raton sits between the two. Whichever the destination, the run is quoted on the exact address rather than a flat figure.
A couple, a corporate party, or a full charter
The vehicle follows the aircraft. A light jet with a couple aboard needs a Luxury Sedan or SUV; a charter group that lands together fills a Jet Sprinter for eight or an Executive Sprinter for fourteen, so the party leaves the FBO in one vehicle rather than a queue. Larger movements — an incentive trip, a conference block, a cruise group for Port Everglades — go to a 23- or 40-passenger Mini Bus or a 55-passenger Charter Bus. Group & Charter Transportation and Sprinter & Mini-Bus Shuttles are standing services; give dispatch the FBO, the tail number and the headcount, and the pickup is built around them.
Booking, hours and the run to Palm Beach
Aura Palm Limo is open 24 hours a day, every day, so a dawn departure or a midnight arrival at FXE is booked the same way as a midday one. Airport transfers are best reserved 24 to 48 hours ahead, with 4 to 6 weeks for holidays and peak weekends, though a shifted private-jet slot can often still be covered on shorter notice. From FXE the chauffeured run to central Palm Beach is about 42 miles and 48 minutes; call +1 (754) 714-7713 or email [email protected] for a quote on your exact route and FBO.
