Denton to Dallas Airport Shuttle

Round Trips Save You 10%

How is Your Service Different?

  • Any Address - We pick up and drop off at your home, business, hotel or any airport.
  • Better - most rides are non-stop and no sharing in a Nice Car, SUV or Shuttle.
  • Flexible - we pick you up on your schedule 24/7. It's also always free to change the date or time if your flight changes.
  • Safer - we don't leave you at a bus stop, and all our drivers go through nationwide fingerprint background checks.
  • Faster - most rides take half the time, because it's just you in the vehicle. No need to stop and wait everywhere.
  • Convenient - Door to Door means no need to arrange or pay for a Taxi or Lyft to get home.
  • Affordable - once you add it all up, it's the same price or less than other shared ride shuttles for two or more people, or less than Uber with just one person.

Daily Schedule (Denton to Dallas)

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 Denton to Dallas 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 Denton‑Dallas Corridor: Routes, Times, and Tips

The most direct path between Denton and downtown Dallas stretches roughly 39 miles (≈ 63 km) and follows primarily Interstate 35 East (I‑35E). For most drivers, the trip takes between 45 minutes in light traffic and 1 hour 30 minutes during peak commute windows (7–9 a.m. and 4–7 p.m.). The highway is a divided, four‑lane corridor for the majority of the route, but congestion around the I‑35E/I‑635 interchange can add 15–20 minutes to the drive on busy days.

Primary Highway Options

  • I‑35E (most common): Leaves Denton via US‑77/College Avenue, merging onto I‑35E southbound. The interstate passes through the towns of Lewisville and Carrollton before entering Dallas County and skirting the Dallas Love Field airport area. The route is largely toll‑free, though the Managed Lanes on I‑35E (often called the “I‑35E Express”) can be used for a faster, toll‑based shortcut if you have a TollTag.
  • I‑35E via I‑635: After merging onto I‑35E, you can also exit at I‑635 (the Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway) to reach the north‑central suburbs of Dallas, then head east or west as needed. This adds about 5–8 miles but can be useful when heading to the Plano/Frisco area.
  • US‑75 (North Central Expressway) alternative: From Denton, take US‑77 south to I‑35E, then transition to I‑635 east, and finally connect to US‑75 north of downtown. This route is handy if you’re targeting the University of Texas at Dallas or Richardson.

Alternate Routes and Scenic Detours

If you prefer a less highway‑centric drive, consider TX‑121 (Sam Rayburn Tollway) heading south from Denton to the Dallas/Fort Worth border, then switching to I‑635 east. This route adds about 10 minutes but can feel smoother when I‑35E is backed up. For a more leisurely vibe, the Old Dallas Highway (FM 1171) runs parallel to I‑35E for a stretch near Lewisville, offering glimpses of local parks and small‑town storefronts.

Public Transportation: DART, Shuttles, and Rideshare

While there’s no direct rail line between the two cities, several public‑transit and shared‑ride options can get you from Denton to Dallas without a personal vehicle.

DART Bus Service

The Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) operates Route 401 (Downtown Dallas ↔ Denton), a limited‑stop bus that connects the Denton Transit Center on the north side of Denton to the Dallas Union Station in downtown Dallas. Travel time on this route ranges from 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, depending on traffic. Most shuttles depart from the Denton Transit Center or major hotels and arrive at the Dallas Convention Center or nearby transit hubs. Typical journey length is 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Prices fluctuate with demand, so booking ahead is advisable.

Rideshare (Uber/Lyft)

Rideshare vehicles are widely available in both cities. Surge pricing can push the upper end higher during heavy traffic or major events.

Cost Comparison: How Much Should You Budget?

Below is a side‑by‑side comparison of the most common travel modes. Here are some local gems that are easy to access from the main highway corridors.

  • Denton Courthouse‑on‑the‑Square (1500 E. McKinney St.) – A historic 1896 courthouse now serving as a cultural center. The surrounding square hosts weekend markets and live music events.
  • Old North Dallas Neighborhood (off I‑35E near Walnut Hill) – Walk the tree‑lined streets, grab a coffee at a local café, and admire early‑20th‑century homes.
  • Lewisville Lakefront Park (FM 1171 near Lake Lewisville) – Perfect for a short walk or picnic if you have extra time.
  • Dallas Arts District (Harwood St. & Flora St.) – Once you reach downtown Dallas, the Arts District offers museums (Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas Museum of Art) within a short walk of each other.
  • Klyde Warren Park (1700 Olive St.) – A linear park built over the Woodall Rodgers Freeway, featuring food trucks, a dog park, and frequent community events.
  • Bishop Arts District (Bishop Ave., Oak Cliff) – A trendy enclave of boutiques, bakeries, and murals; easily reached by taking I‑35E to I‑30 east, then exiting onto Beckley Avenue.

When to Travel for the Smoothest Ride

Timing can make or break the commute. Below are practical guidelines based on typical traffic patterns:

  • Early Morning (Before 7 a.m.) – Traffic is lightest; expect the 39‑mile trip in under 50 minutes if you leave before the morning rush.
  • Mid‑Morning (9 a.m. – 11 a.m.) – The road begins to thicken, especially near the I‑35E/I‑635 interchange. Allow an extra 15 minutes.
  • Mid‑Day (12 p

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.

Our Nicer Vehicles

What type of vehicle will pick me up?

We send a Denton to Dallas Shuttle or SUV (4+ passengers) or a nice car (1-3 passengers) anytime and take you to any address in Fort Worth Texas, not just DFW. Our Dallas and Fort Worth vehicles are clean and newer. Most vehicles are luxury and full size. We have Mercedes Sprinter Shuttles, Lincoln Navigators, Lincoln MKZ's, and a variety of other vehicles.


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.

  • Terminal A - Level 1 - Prearranged Limo is across the crosswalk from Door A15 and A29. 
  • Terminal B - Level 1 - Prearranged Limo is across the crosswalk from Door B8 and B30. 
  • Terminal C - Level 1 - Prearranged Limo is across the crosswalk from Door C4, C10, C24 and C30.

  • Terminal E - Level 0 - Prearranged Limo is Downstairs near Door E35.

Love Field - Ground Transportation is on the lower level down the ramp from the baggage claim. Head to the right, and we pick you up where it says Oversized Vehicles.
