Our Daily Schedule (DFW to Granbury)
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 DFW to Granbury 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.

DFW to Granbury: Your Complete Travel Guide
Traveling from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) to the historic town of Granbury offers a mix of modern convenience and small‑town charm. Whether you are heading to a weekend retreat, a business meeting, or simply exploring the vibrant sights along US‑377, understanding your transportation options helps you plan a smooth trip. This guide covers driving routes, public transit alternatives, the dedicated DFW to Granbury airport shuttle, and practical tips for travelers.
Overview of the Route
The distance between DFW Airport and Granbury is approximately 63 miles, according to recent route measurements (Rome2Rio). The most direct path follows Interstate 35W south to US‑287, then continues on US‑377 westward into Hood County. Along the way you’ll pass through the bustling suburbs of Fort Worth, the scenic rolling hills of Johnson County, and the welcoming town of Cleburne before entering Granbury’s historic square. The journey typically takes just over an hour by car, making it one of the quicker airport‑to‑town transfers in North Texas.
Driving from DFW to Granbury
Driving remains the most flexible way to reach Granbury. After collecting your rental car or using a personal vehicle at DFW, follow signs for Interstate 35W South. Stay on I‑35W for roughly 20 miles until you reach the interchange with US‑287 South near Fort Worth. Take US‑287 for about 15 miles, then merge onto US‑377 West. US‑377 leads straight into Granbury’s downtown area, passing landmarks such as the Granbury Town Square and the historic Granbury Opera House. Real‑time traffic apps often report average travel times of 1 hour 14 minutes under normal conditions, though rush‑hour periods on I‑35W can add 10‑20 minutes.
For those who prefer not to navigate the highways themselves, ride‑hail services and taxis are available at the airport terminals. These options provide door‑to‑door convenience but generally involve higher costs compared to self‑driving.
Public Transportation Options
If you prefer to avoid driving, a combination of Trinity Metro’s tram and local bus services can get you to Granbury. Begin at the DFW Airport Terminal B tram station, board the Trinity Metro TEXRail line toward Fort Worth Central Station (approximately 50 minutes). From Fort Worth Central, transfer to a Trinity Metro bus that heads toward Cleburne; the bus ride lasts about 1 hour 14 minutes. Finally, a short taxi or rideshare leg from the Cleburne bus stop to Granbury completes the journey. Overall, the tram‑plus‑bus‑taxi route averages around 1 hour 39 minutes, including transfers (Rome2Rio). While this method eliminates the need for a personal vehicle, it requires careful scheduling to match service frequencies.
Another public‑transit alternative involves using the DART light rail to downtown Dallas, then connecting to a Greyhound or Megabus service that stops in Granbury. However, these routes often involve longer travel times and multiple transfers, making them less convenient for most travelers.
DFW to Granbury Airport Shuttle Service
Several private shuttle companies operate dedicated routes between DFW Airport and Granbury. These shuttles typically meet passengers at the baggage claim area, assist with luggage, and provide direct drop‑off at hotels, residences, or business addresses in Granbury. The service operates 24 hours a day, allowing travelers to arrange pickups that align with flight arrivals or departures. Because shuttles consolidate multiple passengers along a similar corridor, they often offer a cost‑effective alternative to private taxis while still delivering door‑to‑door convenience.
When booking a shuttle, look for providers that mention flight‑tracking capabilities. This feature enables the driver to adjust pickup times automatically if your flight is early or delayed, reducing the chance of missed connections. Many companies also offer online reservation systems where you can enter your flight number, passenger count, and any special requirements such as child seats or wheelchair accessibility.
