RDU Airport & Raleigh–Durham–Chapel Hill Car Service
Three cities, three universities and one airport in the middle. Flat-rate car service across the Research Triangle, from RDU's Terminal 2 to campus, RTP and downtown.
Car service to and from RDU & Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill
Raleigh-Durham International sits in Morrisville, equidistant from the three cities that make up the Triangle, with Terminal 2 handling Delta, American, United, JetBlue, Southwest and most of the schedule and Terminal 1 serving Frontier, Spirit, Avelo and Breeze. Goldies serves RDU from all of it: downtown Raleigh and North Hills, Cary, Apex and Holly Springs, Morrisville, Durham's downtown and Duke campus, Chapel Hill and Carrboro, and Research Triangle Park. The drive is short from everywhere — 15 minutes from Cary, 20 from Durham, 25 from Raleigh and Chapel Hill — which is why a flat-rate car beats parking for anything longer than a day trip.
The Triangle's travel is driven by its institutions. Duke, UNC and NC State send students, faculty and visiting families through RDU every week, with move-in weekends and graduation needing vans. Duke University Hospital, UNC Medical Center and WakeMed draw patients from across the Southeast who need a patient, reliable ride. RTP's biotech and tech campuses — and the Apple and Google offices rising around them — run corporate travel through our office with a single point of contact.
Goldies' Carolina clients are often Northeast transplants and parents who know us from Long Island and New Jersey. We run the same way here: a real dispatcher, a flat rate, a background-checked driver in a clean vehicle. The Triangle Expressway tolls are included. Choose an Economic sedan, a Luxury Sedan for a client, an SUV for a family or a van for a campus group, and submit your trip below.
