Getting from InTown Suites Carrollton to Dallas Love Field: The Complete Guide
If you're staying at the InTown Suites Extended Stay Carrollton TX property on West Trinity Mills Road and you have a flight out of Dallas Love Field (DAL), you're in luck: this is one of the more straightforward airport runs in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The trip covers roughly 15.3 miles, running south along I-35E (the Stemmons Freeway corridor) before turning toward the airport near Inwood Road and Lemmon Avenue. A typical non-stop, door-to-door ride takes about 22 to 35 minutes, though rush-hour conditions around the Carrollton stretch of I-35E and the Love Field approach can stretch that window longer.
Texas Shuttle provides private, door-to-door shuttle service on this route — meaning your driver picks you up right at the InTown Suites entrance on West Trinity Mills and drops you at the Love Field terminal curbs. No shared vans circling the neighborhood, no dragging luggage to a DART platform, no rental car counter. You book, we show up, you fly.
Route Overview: InTown Suites Carrollton (West Trinity Mills) to DAL
Here's how the drive typically unfolds, based on the most common routing our drivers use:
- Start at InTown Suites Extended Stay Carrollton TX (West Trinity Mills). The property sits in the western Carrollton corridor near Trinity Mills Road, with quick access to Josey Lane and I-35E.
- Head south on I-35E (Stemmons Freeway). This is the workhorse highway between Carrollton and Dallas, passing through Farmers Branch and the metro corridor alongside the DART Green Line tracks near Royal Lane and Walnut Hill.
- Exit toward the Love Field area. Most runs use the Inwood Road or Lemon Avenue approaches, skirting the edge of the Dallas North Tollway/Galleria Dallas business district before reaching the airport.
- Arrive at Dallas Love Field. The airport sits at 8008 Herb Kelleher Way, just northwest of downtown Dallas, bounded by Lemmon Avenue, Mockingbird Lane, and Cedar Springs Road. It's a single-terminal airport, which makes drop-offs fast.
Note that while the straight-line distance between the two points is only about 10 miles, road mileage and signal timing push the driving distance to roughly 15.3 miles. I-35E construction and metroplex rush hours (roughly 7–9 a.m. and 4–6:30 p.m. on weekdays) are the two biggest variables, so we always recommend building in a buffer.
Comparing Your Transportation Options from InTown Suites Carrollton
Extended-stay guests usually weigh a few options for getting to the airport. Here's an honest side-by-side look:
| Option | Typical Time (est.) | Luggage Handling | Door-to-Door? | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Texas Shuttle private service | ~22–35 min | Driver assists; 2–3 checked bags plus a personal item standard | Yes — pickup at your suite's door | Early flights, heavy bags, predictable flat-rate-style planning |
| Rideshare (app-based) | ~22–35 min + wait time | Self-load; vehicle size varies by app match | Yes | Flexible, spontaneous departures |
| DART Green Line from Trinity Mills Station | ~45–75 min with transfer (est.) | Self-managed on platforms and buses | No — requires walk to station + transfer near Love Field | Budget travelers with light luggage and time to spare |
| Rental car | ~22–35 min drive + return logistics | Self-managed | No — requires rental return before check-in | Guests who need a car for other errands anyway |
For most extended-stay travelers — especially those with rolling luggage, an early-morning departure, or a late-night arrival — a pre-booked private shuttle is the low-stress choice. You'll see your exact fare instantly using our online booking tool, with no account required.
How Texas Shuttle Service Works on This Route
Booking Your Ride
The fastest way to lock in a ride is to use the booking tool on texasshuttle.com for an instant, no-account-required quote. Prefer to talk to a human? Call our sales line at (817) 403-6196, staffed 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. CST, and we'll set up your pickup and confirm all the details. When you book your return journey too, use promo code ONLINE for 10% off round trips.
Pickup at InTown Suites Carrollton
We recommend being ready — bags packed and checked out of your room — at least 15 to 20 minutes before your scheduled pickup time. Your driver will pull up to the property entrance on West Trinity Mills Road. Because this is a private, door-to-door service, there's no walking to a distant pickup point and no waiting for other passengers. If you're checking out of your suite that morning, keep in mind InTown Suites posted hours list an 11:00 a.m. checkout time (with check-in at 2:00 p.m.), so an early flight often works out neatly with the front desk.
Drop-Off at Dallas Love Field
Love Field is a compact, single-terminal airport. Your driver knows the airport ground-transportation curbs and will drop you at the appropriate departures curb for your airline — Southwest dominates the terminal, with service also from Delta and Alaska. From the curb, it's a short roll to the ticketing lobby and TSA checkpoint. For most domestic departures, arriving at the airport 90 minutes to two hours before your flight is a comfortable target; our dispatchers factor this in when scheduling your pickup time.
Better Drivers, Better Rides
Our drivers aren't GPS-only transplants — they know the InTown Suites Carrollton area, the I-35E Stemmons Freeway route into Love Field, and the airport's ground-transportation curbs from repeated runs. That local familiarity matters most when conditions change: a wreck on I-35E near Royal Lane, event traffic around the Galleria Dallas area, or a surprise closure near Mockingbird. Experienced drivers reroute in real time instead of discovering the problem with you in the back seat.
Directions: Driving the Route Yourself (For Reference)
If a colleague is driving you or you're renting a car for part of your stay, here's the general routing our drivers follow most often:
- From the InTown Suites property on West Trinity Mills Road, take the nearest connector (typically via Trinity Mills Road or Josey Lane) to southbound I-35E.
- Remain on I-35E South (Stemmons Freeway) for roughly 10 miles, passing the Farmers Branch corridor, Royal Lane, Walnut Hill Lane, and Northwest Highway (Loop 12).
- Take the Inwood Road exit and follow Inwood south, then connect to the Love Field access roads, or continue to the Lemmon Avenue approach — both are common routes to the terminal.
- Follow airport signage to the departures level at the main terminal, 8008 Herb Kelleher Way.
Allow extra time during weekday rush hours and whenever there's major construction activity on I-35E, which has seen ongoing improvement projects along the Dallas corridor. A navigation app will give you a live picture on the day you travel, but the 22-to-35-minute range is a reliable planning baseline.
Tips for Extended-Stay Travelers Flying Out of Love Field
- Schedule backward from your flight. Work from your airline's recommended arrival time, subtract 22–35 minutes of drive time, add a 15–20 minute buffer, and book your pickup accordingly. Early flights out of Love Field are common — many Southwest departures leave before 7 a.m. — so don't be shy about a pre-dawn pickup.
- Know your baggage plan. Most travelers on our service can bring 2–3 checked bags plus one personal item such as a laptop bag or purse. If you're ending a long stay and hauling more than that, mention it when booking so we can plan vehicle space.
- Book the round trip together. Reserving both legs in one go — Carrollton to Love Field, then Love Field back to Carrollton — earns the 10% ONLINE promo discount and gives our team your flight details in advance.
- Coordinate with the property. InTown Suites' Carrollton front office (posted hours: Monday–Saturday, 11 a.m.–7 p.m.; direct line (817) 417-0225; reservations 1-844-770-0684) can help with checkout timing if your shuttle pickup lands before the desk opens.
- Watch the weather calendar. North Texas spring storms and the occasional ice event can slow I-35E significantly. In severe weather season, we suggest padding every time estimate by 20–30 minutes.

InTown Suites Carrollton to Love Field Shuttle FAQ
What time should I expect for pickup?
Your confirmed pickup time is scheduled backward from your flight departure, accounting for the 22–35 minute drive to Love Field and airport check-in time. Plan to be waiting — bags packed and ready — at least 15 to 20 minutes before your scheduled pickup time so the driver can load and depart on schedule. Your exact pickup window is confirmed at booking, either through the online tool or over the phone at (817) 403-6196.
How many bags can I bring with me?
Most travelers can bring 2–3 checked bags plus one personal item such as a laptop bag or purse. Because this is a private door-to-door service, there's no shared-trip baggage pool to fight over. If you're wrapping up a multi-week stay and carrying extra luggage, let us know when booking so we can accommodate you properly.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
If you've booked a round trip with us, share your flight number when booking and our dispatchers can monitor changes. If your inbound flight to Love Field is delayed, contact us as soon as you know — call (817) 403-6196 — and we'll adjust your return pickup to Love Field accordingly. Airlines reschedule constantly, and we build flexibility into round-trip bookings to handle it.
Where exactly do I get picked up at Love Field for the return trip?
For your return, your driver will meet you at the arranged Love Field ground-transportation location near the terminal — confirmed with you at booking and reconfirmed by your driver via phone or text when you land. Because Love Field is a single-terminal airport with a compact curb layout, finding your ride is quick compared to larger airports. Keep your phone handy after landing; your driver will coordinate the exact meeting spot in real time.
How do I get a price for my trip?
Use the instant-booking tool on our website — no account needed — and you'll see your fare before you commit to anything. Prefer to speak with someone? Our sales line at (817) 403-6196 is open 9 a.m.–7 p.m. CST. Costs shown are for your specific trip details, so there are no surprises at the curb. And remember: promo code ONLINE takes 10% off round trips.
Is the 22–35 minute drive time guaranteed?
No — and any honest provider will tell you the same. That figure reflects typical non-stop conditions on the 15.3-mile I-35E route, but DFW-metro rush hours, crashes, and construction can lengthen it. That's exactly why we recommend a 15–20 minute buffer before your scheduled pickup and why our dispatchers schedule Love Field runs with realistic margins rather than best-case estimates.
Can you pick up other guests staying with me at InTown Suites?
Yes. Group travel is common on this route — coworkers, crews, and families wrapping up extended stays. Mention your party size and total luggage when booking and we'll match the right vehicle. The booking tool will show your group's fare instantly, or call (817) 403-6196 to arrange multi-passenger service and apply the ONLINE promo code for 10% off round trips.
