Daily Schedule (Austin to San Antonio)
What is your daily schedule?
We pick you up on your schedule 24/7, and take you anywhere in San Antonio. Your professional driver runs this route non-stop, door to door, in a clean, newer vehicle. You pick the time we pick you up. Normally 30 minutes after you land is enough time to get your bags and find your Prearranged pickup spot.
What is my pickup time at the airport?
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.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Pickup times automatically adjust to 30 minutes after you land if your flight is delayed for domestic flights, 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.
What happens if my flight arrives early?
Call or send us a text if you want us to pick you up early at the airport, and we will let your shuttle driver know that you are ready to be picked up. Otherwise, we will pick you up at the scheduled time on your reservation. If it's hot outside, please wait inside the terminal at your prearranged pickup spot 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 Austin to San Antonio 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 the Austin to San Antonio trip take?
The Austin to San Antonio run covers about 80 miles door to door and takes roughly an hour and a quarter to an hour and three-quarters in normal traffic. A private ride runs non-stop — no waiting on other passengers, no fixed bus departure times to chase. Comparing driving, flying and shuttles? See our Austin to San Antonio travel options.
What time should I be picked up?
For airport drop-offs, aim to arrive about 2 hours before a domestic flight — that covers security and getting to your gate. Boarding usually starts 30 minutes before departure, so schedule your pickup with a comfortable buffer. Your driver monitors traffic, and a little extra time keeps the trip stress-free by adjusting for the unexpected.

Getting from Austin to San Antonio: Your Transportation Options
The Austin to San Antonio corridor runs about 80 miles down Interstate 35. Here is an honest look at your options for making the trip.
Private door-to-door shuttle (our service)
A private shuttle is the only option that takes your whole group, with luggage, from any address in Austin to any address in San Antonio — home, hotel, business, or airport — non-stop, on the schedule you choose. There is no counter to stand in line at and no shared stops. In the Step-2 checkout, a private sedan for up to 3 passengers priced at about $390 for the whole vehicle downtown-to-downtown when we measured in September 2026, and a large SUV for 4 about $520 — roughly $130 per person. Your exact fare is priced instantly online for your exact addresses, and the price you're quoted is the price you pay — no surge pricing.
Rideshare or taxi
For a single rider with light luggage, a rideshare can work for short hops. For the 80-mile corridor, fares climb quickly, large groups may need two vehicles, and airport pickup zones can mean a long walk with bags. Surge pricing at busy times can also multiply the fare with no warning.
Driving yourself
Driving means paying to park (or in Austin, a hotel's overnight fee), doing the navigation yourself, and arriving at your meeting, hotel, or the airport already tired. If your trip starts or ends at an airport, someone else still has to shuttle your car.
Whatever you choose, check rates above — it takes under a minute and there is no obligation.
Do you pick up at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport?
Yes — we pick up at Austin-Bergstrom (AUS) around the clock, and at San Antonio International (SAT) on the other end. Follow the Ground Transportation signs after you land; your driver confirms the exact meeting spot by call or text, and pickups adjust automatically if your flight is delayed or arrives early. Coming back the other way? See the reverse San Antonio to Austin trip, or browse all Austin shuttle routes.
How much time should I allow for the trip?
Plan on about an hour and a quarter to an hour and three-quarters for the 80-mile drive in normal traffic, with extra time around Friday-afternoon rush on I-35 through San Marcos and New Braunfels. For airport drop-offs, plan to arrive about 2 hours before a domestic flight — boarding usually starts 30 minutes before departure, so a comfortable buffer keeps the trip stress-free.
What is the drive from Austin to San Antonio like?
It is a straight shot down Interstate 35 for about 80 miles — you pass Buda, Kyle, San Marcos, and New Braunfels before the San Antonio skyline comes into view. In light traffic the run takes about an hour and a quarter; add time for Friday afternoons, university event weekends, and morning rush around downtown San Antonio. I-35 construction around both metros comes and goes, so your driver monitors conditions and, on airport runs, tracks your flight so a delay never costs extra.
From the Hill Country capital to the Alamo City
The Austin-to-San Antonio run is one of the most traveled corridors in Central Texas, and our door-to-door shuttle covers it start to finish along the direct I-35 route. We pick you up at your home, office, or hotel — whether that's a bungalow in Zilker, a condo near the Domain, or a guest room in East Austin — and drop you curbside at San Antonio International, the River Walk, the Pearl, or wherever your trip actually begins and ends. No parking garages, no rideshare surge pricing, no dragging bags across a park-and-ride lot.
Expect roughly an hour and a half of drive time in normal traffic, though I-35 through New Braunfels and north San Antonio can slow things down at rush hour and on UT or Spurs game days. Our riders on this route are a familiar mix: Austin-based professionals catching afternoon flights out of San Antonio, families heading to SeaWorld or the Missions, UT and Texas State parents doing airport runs, and corporate travelers shuttling between the two metros' downtowns. We monitor your flight status and adjust pickup times accordingly, so an early arrival or a delayed landing doesn't leave you stranded.
Is it better to fly or shuttle from Austin to San Antonio?
For most travelers, the drive is simpler. There's no scheduled commercial air service between the two cities to speak of, and the shuttle takes you door to door in about the time it takes to park, clear security, and board — without the parking fees.
Can you pick me up in San Antonio and take me to Austin?
Yes. The route runs both directions, with door-to-door service from San Antonio neighborhoods, hotels, and the airport to homes and businesses throughout the Austin area.
