Driving Directions: Step‑by‑Step Routes
Route via US‑380 and TX‑288 to I‑35E
Begin in downtown Aubrey and head east on US‑380 toward the town of Pilot Point. After approximately seven miles, you will encounter the intersection with TX‑288. Turn left (north) onto TX‑288 and continue for about four miles until you reach the merge point with I‑35E southbound. Follow I‑35E for roughly 20 miles, passing through the cities of Lewisville and Dallas, then take the exit for TX‑121 west (Sam Rayburn Tollway). Stay on TX‑121 for about eight miles, following signs for DFW Airport. The airport entrance appears via the International Parkway exits, leading directly to the terminals. This route primarily uses tolled lanes on TX‑121; if you prefer to avoid tolls, remain on I‑35E south and use the free exit for TX‑183 (Airport Freeway) which also connects to the airport.
Alternative Route via I‑35W and TX‑114
From Aubrey, take US‑380 east to TX‑288 north as described above, but instead of merging onto I‑35E, continue on TX‑288 until it meets I‑35W southbound near Denton. Follow I‑35W for approximately 18 miles, passing through the University of North Texas area and downtown Fort Worth. Exit onto TX‑114 west (also known as the Northwest Highway) and travel about 12 miles toward the airport. TX‑114 runs parallel to the northern boundary of DFW and provides direct access to Terminals A through C via the Airport Avenue exits. This route avoids the Sam Rayburn Tollway tolls but may encounter heavier congestion during peak commuting hours, especially around the I‑35W/I‑820 interchange.
