If it is federal, the US Marshal service will transport him via airplane. They normally will fly into the FTC Oklahoma City facility which is situated on an airport tarmac. They will process him there for a day or more and then when there are enough eastbound transfers he will eventually get to his destination. The US Marshal is the most humane outfit. The air transport is efficient, speedy and unbelievably professional in it's method. If it is a state facility he is going to, they transport him via prison bus. They drive 300-400 miles per day ans stay the night in some county jail along the way. This is without question the worst possible option. It will take days and the travel is depressing and very hard on the inmate.
