Several transportation companies offer non-stop shuttles from Salt Lake International Airport to Snowbird’s front door.

Private Shuttle: The Mountain Valley Transportation shuttle is a 24-hour private shuttle service that takes passengers to and from the airport as well as to any resort they desire. For a ride to the airport, reservations should be made at least 24 hours in advance.
