Your Route: La Quinta South Irving to DFW
The La Quinta Inn & Suites DFW Airport South sits at 4105 W. Airport Freeway in Irving, directly on the State Highway 183 corridor. That puts you about 9 driving miles from DFW International Airport's main terminal complex via SH-183 east to International Parkway North — the most direct and most reliable route in normal traffic. Off-peak the trip is usually 18–22 minutes door to door; during morning DFW rush (7–9 a.m.) and evening rush (4–7 p.m.) plan on 28–35 minutes. Pickups before 6 a.m. are typically the fastest of the day at 15–20 minutes.
If SH-183 is congested or affected by construction near the airport, drivers will reroute via Loop 12 or Belt Line Road to reach DFW's south entrance. Either alternate adds only a few minutes; the flat price you booked does not change because of a re-route.
Drive Time by Time of Day
- Off-peak (10 a.m.–3 p.m., evenings, weekends): about 18–22 minutes
- Weekday morning rush (7–9 a.m.): about 25–35 minutes
- Weekday evening rush (4–7 p.m.): about 28–35 minutes
- Pre-dawn pickup (4–6 a.m.): about 15–20 minutes
For domestic departures we recommend arriving at your DFW terminal 2 hours before takeoff (3 hours for international). Working backwards: that means a La Quinta South Irving pickup roughly 2 hours 30 minutes before a peak-hour domestic flight, or about 2 hours 15 minutes before an off-peak flight.

Hotel Pickup Logistics
The standard pickup point is the La Quinta porte-cochère on the front (south) side of the building, immediately accessible from the main lobby. If you would prefer to wait inside, the lobby pickup option lets you stay seated; the driver will text on arrival and meet you at the front desk. Early-morning pickups before the hotel's complimentary breakfast service starts at 6 a.m. are common — the driver will not delay; just be down at the time on your confirmation.
For drop-offs returning to La Quinta South Irving from DFW, the driver pulls directly under the porte-cochère and helps unload luggage. The hotel does not charge for shuttle drop-off; there is no curbside fee.
