American Airlines Center to DFW Shuttle

American Airlines Center Event Shuttle Service

American Airlines Center in downtown Dallas is the home arena of the NHL's Dallas Stars and the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, and hosts the biggest concerts and touring shows that come through North Texas. The Victory Park arena is roughly 25 minutes from DFW International Airport.

Texas Shuttle runs private, door-to-door event shuttles between American Airlines Center and DFW Airport — sedan for 1–3 travelers, SUV or shuttle van for families and small groups, and Sprinter vans or larger group buses on request. No shared stops, no surge pricing, and a driver who tracks your flight and adjusts pickup automatically for delays.

The DFW ↔ American Airlines Center Route

The airport-to-venue run covers about 20 miles and takes 30 to 45 minutes in normal traffic, depending on your exact addresses and traffic. On event days, plan extra margin: the corridors around American Airlines Center slow down sharply in the two hours before gates open and for about an hour after the final whistle. Your driver plans the pickup around your schedule so you arrive with room to spare, and for airport arrivals we track your flight and meet you at the terminal curb with no waiting.

Fares & Group Quotes

Fares follow the established Dallas corridor pattern: downtown airport runs price out near the sibling Dallas–DFW route's ballpark, with exact all-in pricing quoted per trip based on your addresses, group size, and schedule. Group outings for arena events are custom-quoted. Enter your route in our online booking tool for an instant, all-in quote — the price you see is the door-to-door total, not per person. Round trips save 10%, or enter promo code ONLINE on one-way bookings.

Event-Day Logistics

  • Group pickup made simple. Whether it is a family of four heading to a game or a sales team flying in for a convention, we stage your vehicle at the airport terminal and deliver your group to the venue doors together — one booking, one driver, one all-in rate. Larger parties can be split across multiple vehicles with synchronized pickups; tell us your headcount when you book.
  • Luggage-free event transfers. Flying in for an event but heading home later? Send your bags ahead with us: we collect them at the airport and hold or forward them while you ride to the venue unencumbered, then reconnect you with your luggage for the return run. Travel light through the gates — your bags are our problem, not yours.
  • High-demand event dates fill fast. Home openers, playoff weekends, championship games, rodeo season, and marquee concerts create surge demand for airport-venue transportation. Reserve as early as your event schedule allows; last-minute game-day bookings are accepted 24/7 when drivers are available, but capacity is limited on the biggest dates.

What is my pickup time at DFW?

We normally pick you up 30 minutes after your plane lands for domestic flights, or 45 mins after for international flights. If you don't have bags, you can schedule your pickup time for 15 mins after you land, or 30 mins for international flights with no bags.

Pickup times automatically adjust to 30 minutes after you land if your flight is delayed for domestic flights at DFW, or 45 minutes after you land for international flights. Please let us know as soon as possible if your flight number changes. You can always text us if there is a delay. This is helpful since airlines don't always update things online when they are late.

Call or send us a text if you want us to pick you up early at American Airlines Center Fort Worth, and we will let your shuttle driver know that you are ready to be picked up.

If it's hot outside, please wait inside the DFW terminal closest to prearranged until your car or airport shuttle is a minute or so away.

How soon should I make a reservation?

Although there is no set rule that prevents booking a American Airlines Center to DFW Shuttle last minute, it's a good idea to make your reservation as soon as possible so a shuttle driver is available and prevent any delays with picking you up. There's no need to confirm again if you've already made a reservation, and received a confirmation email.

How long does it take from American Airlines Center or Fort Worth Texas?

Texas Shuttle trips from American Airlines Center or Fort Worth Texas in normal traffic are about an hour and forty minutes versus three and a half hours on the bus with a bunch of people. Rush hour in downtown American Airlines Center and Fort Worth will normally add 15-45 mins (30 mins on the average). You might think there's no way a bus or another shared ride shuttle company in American Airlines Center or Fort Worth Shuttle would take that long, but they stop and wait 3-5 times to pickup people. Buses and other shuttles also don't leave on your schedule, so you might wait 30 mins - 1.5 hours if the bus is running late. With us it's just you going straight to Fort Worth or American Airlines Center, normally non-stop in a nicer vehicle or shuttle.

What time should I be picked up?

The drive to Fort Worth is about 1 hour and 40 minutes. 3 hours and 30 minutes before your flight is normally enough time if you're going to DFW. American Airlines Center Fort Worth recommends you be there 2 hours early to get through security and find your gate. Boarding in American Airlines Center usually starts 30 mins before your plane takes off. However, one hour and thirty mins is generally okay. American Airlines Center and Fort Worth Shuttle driving takes about 2 hours, then 3 and a half hours before your flight takes off is normally good. You start running the risk that they will give your seat away in American Airlines Center about 40 mins before your flight takes off. Sometimes a little extra time is good and makes your trip to Fort Worth stress free by adjusting for the unexpected.
