Porsche's US HQ is just outside the perimeter of the airport in Atlanta, & they have a nice thing going on with Delta.

If you're on a tight connection at ATL the crew will take you down the steps off the jetway where there's a chauffeur-driven Porsche waiting to transfer you. It takes you on the airside route to your next plane on whatever concourse, so you don't have to deal with the chaos inside. This is for "360" members, an invite-only loyalty tier, plus I think you can pay for a VIP Host service. I've seen Panameras, Cayennes, & Taycans trundling around out there, with discreet "Delta" logos on the doors.

Great way of getting bums on seats. Not sure what the arrangement is between Delta & Porsche, but I'd guess Porsche takes the cars back after a few months, sells them off as CPOs or demonstrators & gives Delta new ones. I know other airlines have similar schemes but don't know what car brands they use

Nice for some.
