COVID-19 Update  

University of Iowa's Undergraduate Student Government wants to restate its continued commitment to the health and safety of our community. We echo the University’s recommendation to follow recommended CDC public health guidelines, but want to ensure that students who need to utilize the Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) still have an affordable and accessible method of transportation. For this reason, are requiring that all students wear a mask to use this service, to be active immediately. If you do not wear a mask, you may be denied service.

Service Update  

University of Iowa's Undergraduate Student Government has now changed its partnership from Yellow Cab of Iowa City to Anaman Concierge Services. If you have questions about the service further, you may reach out to them with your inquiries or visit our Frequently Asked Question Page. Please note that any information pointing to reach out to Yellow Cab of Iowa City is incorrect. Our service times have also expanded (please see below). 

The service will now run using the following dates:

Students should allow for a window of availability for pickup to coordinate shuttles more efficiently.  Anaman Concierge Services reserves the right to give you an alternative pickup location near your original location request within 24 hours of your scheduled departure. Please remain vigilant for any correspondence you may receive from Anaman Concierge Services prior to your departure. Please be prompt in arriving to your shuttle, other students may be waiting upon your arrival and we have informed Anaman Concierge Services that they are not obligated to wait in excess of 10 minutes for any individual student.

Anaman Concierge Services has a designated pickup location outside of the baggage claim at the Eastern Iowa Airport.

2021-2022 Schedule:

Please Note: We recognize that many students are traveling outside of these dates and we will work the best we can to accommodate you. But please be aware, we will not accommodate students more than 10 days prior to the start of a break, or 10 days following the completion of a break. If your travel dates fall within these 10 day ranges, we may be able to accommodate you, but cannot guarantee this to be the case. This is due to our limited capacity and inability to manage a full-time shuttle service based on the resources available. USG reserves the right to refuse any service request outside of the windows of operation. 

Why does USG charge for this service? Charging a small fee allows USG to partner with a provider who can better manage the high demand for this service & promotes the economic sustainability of this service into the future.

 Below are several alternative options available for getting to the Airport:
