Planning Transportation for a Corporate Event in Philadelphia

Corporate event transportation is a logistics problem with five parts: who is coming, how they arrive, where they stay, where the event is, and who needs a car of their own. Plan in that order.

1. Count people and bags

Start with the guest list and split it into groups that travel together. A passenger van carries 15 people and 15 bags; an SUV carries six.

2. Map the arrivals

Collect flight numbers and train times. Arrivals at PHL are flight tracked; arrivals at 30th Street Station are met at the station.

3. Plan hotel to venue runs

For a conference at the Pennsylvania Convention Center or a dinner across town, schedule van runs around the start and finish times rather than one big pickup.

4. Give executives their own car

Speakers and senior guests often need a car on standby between sessions. Book those by the hour.

5. Write the timing plan
