Our Daily Schedule (Dallas to Midland)
What is your daily schedule?
We pick you up on your schedule 24/7, and take you anywhere in Dallas and Fort Worth. Our professional shuttle drivers are normally 5-10 minutes early at your home in Fort Worth and Dallas, or right on time at Dallas Fort Worth. You pick the time we pick you up. Normally 30 minutes after you land is enough time to get your bags and find Prearranged.
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.
What happens if my flight is delayed in Dallas?
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.
What happens if my flight in Dallas arrives early?
Call or send us a text if you want us to pick you up early at Dallas Fort Worth, 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 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 Dallas to Midland 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 Dallas or Fort Worth Texas?
Texas Shuttle trips from Dallas 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 Dallas 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 Dallas 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 Dallas, 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. Dallas Fort Worth recommends you be there 2 hours early to get through security and find your gate. Boarding in Dallas usually starts 30 mins before your plane takes off. However, one hour and thirty mins is generally okay. Dallas 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 Dallas 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.

Driving the Dallas to Midland Route: What You Need to Know
Route Overview and Highway Details
The most common way to travel the roughly 300‑mile corridor from Dallas to Midland is via Interstate 20 (I‑20). Starting in downtown Dallas, drivers typically head west on I‑30 for a few miles before merging onto I‑20 just north of Fort Worth. From there, I‑20 runs straight across the Texas hill country, passing through cities such as Weatherford, Eastland, and Abilene before reaching the Permian Basin and finally Midland. The highway is a four‑lane divided freeway for the majority of the route, with a speed limit of 75 mph on many segments, which helps keep travel times predictable. (source: Google Maps)
For those who prefer a more scenic drive, an alternate route follows U.S. Highway 180 west from Fort Worth to Albany, then joins State Route 283 north to I‑20 near Lone Star. This route adds about 20 minutes but passes through historic towns and the rolling ranchland of North‑Central Texas.
Estimated Drive Time and Mileage
Travelers should budget about 4½ to 5½ hours of driving time under normal conditions. The distance from Dallas city center to Midland’s city center is approximately 300 miles (≈ 480 kilometers). Traffic in the Dallas‑Fort Worth metro area can cause minor delays, especially during rush hours (7‑9 am and 4‑6 pm). Once clear of the metro area, the drive is generally smooth, with minimal construction zones. (source: Google Maps)
Fuel and Rest Stops Along I‑20
Because the drive crosses several small towns, fuel stations are plentiful. Key stops include the town of Weatherford (≈ 30 miles west of Fort Worth), where travelers can refill and grab a quick snack. Further west, the cities of Eastland (≈ 120 miles from Dallas) and Abilene (≈ 180 miles) offer full‑service rest areas, restaurants, and motels. For a quick break, the town of Colorado City (≈ 240 miles) has a convenience store and a popular truck stop. All these locations provide restrooms, vending machines, and the opportunity to stretch your legs before the final stretch into Midland.
Flying Between Dallas and Midland: Flight Options and Tips
Major Airports: DFW, DAL, and MAF
Two primary Dallas‑area airports serve the Dallas‑Midland route. Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) is the larger hub, offering multiple daily flights to Midland International Air & Space Port (MAF). Dallas Love Field (DAL) is a smaller, more centrally located airport that also provides regional service to Midland, primarily through Southwest Airlines. Both airports have ample parking, rental‑car facilities, and ground‑transportation options. (source: American Airlines, Southwest)
Airline Services and Frequency
American Airlines operates the majority of non‑stop flights between DFW and MAF, with departures roughly every hour during peak travel times. Southwest Airlines offers daily non‑stop service from DAL to MAF, catering to business travelers and leisure visitors alike. Flight time for a non‑stop flight is approximately 1 hour 10 minutes, making air travel the fastest option for those who need to reach Midland quickly. (source: American Airlines, Southwest)
Booking Tips and Fare Estimates
When searching for flights, it’s advisable to compare fares across both airports. Airline websites display current offers and any applicable fees. As a general guideline, round‑trip coach fares for this route typically fall within a broad range that can vary by season, booking window, and demand. Travelers should check the airlines’ reservation pages for the most up‑to‑date pricing and any promotional codes. (source: aa.com, southwest.com)
Ground Transportation Alternatives: Bus, Shuttle, and Rideshare
Bus Services
Greyhound operates a daily route that connects Dallas and Midland, making stops in major towns along I‑20 such as Fort Worth, Abilene, and Big Spring. The bus journey takes roughly 7‑8 hours, making it a budget‑friendly option for travelers who don’t mind a longer travel day. Tickets can be purchased online, and Greyhound’s buses offer amenities like free Wi‑Fi, power outlets, and reclining seats. (source: Greyhound)
Shuttle Services
Several shuttle companies, including Texas Shuttle and Lone Star Shuttle, provide shared‑ride transport between Dallas and Midland. These services typically depart from designated pickup points in downtown Dallas or near major hotels and drop off at the Midland city center or nearby hotels. Travel time is comparable to driving (about 6‑7 hours), but the shared‑ride format can reduce the per‑person cost. Reservations are recommended, especially during peak travel periods. (source: Texas Shuttle)
Rideshare Options
Uber and Lyft operate throughout the Dallas‑Fort Worth metro area, and riders can request a ride to Midland. However, a long‑distance Uber or Lyft trip can be expensive, and drivers may have restrictions on the total distance they are willing to travel in a single trip. If considering a rideshare, it’s best to get a fare estimate in advance through the app to understand potential costs. (source: Uber, Lyft)
