Student Life Transportation Services
Wartburg College offers limited transportation services designed to support students’ essential mobility needs off campus. These services help connect students to local resources, medical appointments, and travel hubs when personal transportation isn’t available. While not intended to replace daily commuting, our transportation options aim to reduce barriers, promote student well‑being, and ensure access to key services throughout the academic year.
Airport Shuttle Service
Wartburg offers shuttle service at the beginning and end of longer academic breaks during the academic year. Email shuttle@wartburg.edu or call 319-352-8260 (Student Life) with any questions about the shuttle program. Shuttle seats can be reserved anytime, but ticketing for each shuttle closes 7 days before the date of shuttle travel.

Planning Ahead: Please choose your shuttle and other travel tickets carefully so that you will get to your airport or bus station in plenty of time for security check-in and boarding. You must be on time for the shuttle! For students flying into an airport before boarding the shuttle, you may want to consider arriving a day or several hours earlier in case of flight delays. The shuttle will not be able to wait for passengers on flights delayed more than an hour.
Be sure to read all disclaimers before reserving your seat.
