Alvarado to Mckinney Shuttle

Traveling between Alvarado and McKinney offers a glimpse of North Texas’s diverse landscape, from the historic downtown of Alvarado to the vibrant, tech‑driven community of McKinney. Texas Shuttle provides a private, door‑to‑door intercity shuttle that links these two thriving towns without the hassle of navigating multiple highways or searching for parking.

The straight‑line distance between Alvarado and McKinney is roughly 64 miles, though the actual road mileage is a little higher due to the route’s curvature. Most trips fall within an 87‑ to 119‑minute window, depending on traffic on I‑35E, US‑75 (the Central Expressway), and local thoroughfares that connect to each city’s core. Our experienced drivers know the optimal times to merge onto I‑35E northbound toward Dallas, then transition onto US‑75 north, avoiding the busiest bottlenecks near downtown Dallas.

When you book a Texas Shuttle ride, the driver meets you at your doorstep in Alvarado—whether it’s a historic ranch house near the Trinity River, a modern condo in the Rummy‑Morse subdivision, or a corporate office on Austin Blvd. From there, you’ll glide past the rolling prairie, cross the bustling retail corridor of Plano, and arrive at your destination in McKinney, dropping you off at any address, from the charming lofts of the historic downtown square to the sleek office park on US‑75.

For travelers connecting to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), our shuttle can pick you up from the Alvarado side and drop you at the International Arrivals level of Terminal D or any other terminal you specify. On the return leg, we’ll collect you from the terminal’s designated curbside zone and bring you straight home to Alvarado, monitoring your flight status to adjust pickup times as needed.

Our vehicles are climate‑controlled and feature roomy luggage compartments, making it easy to bring suitcases, sports equipment, or even a small pet carrier. Because we operate on a private schedule, you’ll never share the ride with strangers, and you’ll have the flexibility to stop briefly for a coffee in Plano or a quick stretch at the historic McKinney Clocktower Plaza before reaching your final stop.

What are the benefits of using our service?

Door to door shuttle service is included on all our trips. Usually trips in Texas are non-stop in a nicer vehicle. Texas Shuttle can pick you up Dallas, or your home anytime 24/7. We normally take you straight there, which is very different from other companies that leave you at a bus stop in Texas, and stop and wait repeatedly. We also don't pack you in with 8-54 people you don't know.

Does it cost anything to change my reservation?

You can change the date and time of your reservation at no cost. If you don't know the exact address, you can enter the city for now and reserve it, then give us the full address later. If you don't know your flight number landing in Dallas, you can estimate the time and update the flight number and time later.

Pickup Locations

Your Texas Shuttle picks you up where it says Prearranged at DFW or Ground Transportation at Love Field. If you are in a wheelchair, do not allow your attendant to leave you anywhere except Prearranged at DFW. The signs are easy to see, and they are always at the curb.
Security won't allow drivers to wait or walk more than 15 feet away from their vehicle, so good communication is essential. Turn on your cell phone and take it off airplane mode and silent, so your driver can call or text you. If you don't recognize the number, it's probably your driver.


DFW - Prearranged Limo is located at the lower level of each terminal. Please choose the closest one to your gate and let your driver know when they call or text you.
