Luling Airport Shuttle

Traveling from the small town of Luling, Texas to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) — or south to San Antonio International (SAT) — is a journey that can feel daunting without a reliable ride. Texas Shuttle bridges that gap with a private, door‑to‑door shuttle that picks you up right at your front porch in Luling and drops you at the exact terminal you need — the Barbara Jordan Terminal or the South Terminal at AUS, or the Terminal A / Terminal B curb at SAT. On request we also serve Houston’s IAH and Hobby airports and DFW for travelers who need to connect further north.

The road distance between Luling and Austin-Bergstrom is roughly 53 miles via US‑183 north and TX‑130, giving a typical door‑to‑door drive time of 55 to 80 minutes depending on time of day. San Antonio International sits about 60 miles southwest via I‑10 West and US‑281 North, usually a 65 to 90 minute drive. Our experienced drivers know the toll-lane shortcuts on TX‑130, the timing patterns on I‑35 through San Marcos, and the fastest curb-to-curb routes to keep you on schedule for early-morning departures.

When you book a Luling shuttle, you are not sharing a van with strangers; you receive a dedicated, climate‑controlled vehicle that fits your family, pet, or extra luggage. Our fleet includes spacious sedans, midsize SUVs, and Mercedes Sprinter shuttles, each equipped with USB charging ports and ample trunk space for suitcases, golf bags, or even a small moving crate. The driver greets you by name, assists with luggage, and monitors your flight status so that a delayed arrival won’t leave you stranded at the curb.

Because Luling sits in Caldwell County on the edge of the Texas Hill Country, we plan each route with an eye on local road conditions — whether it’s a rainy spell on US‑183, a Watermelon Thump weekend in town, or weekday rush-hour congestion approaching the Austin metro. Our 24‑hour dispatch team is reachable by phone and can adjust pickup times if your flight is early morning or late night, ensuring you never have to wake up too early to catch a ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

How early should I schedule my pickup for an Austin flight?

We recommend scheduling your pickup 3 hours before a domestic departure from Austin-Bergstrom (AUS) and 3.5 to 4 hours before an international flight. This accounts for the 55–80 minute drive and TSA wait times at AUS, which can be longer during SXSW, ACL, and major holidays.

What if my flight is delayed or arrives early?

Texas Shuttle monitors your flight in real time. If your arrival is delayed, the driver will wait at a convenient location near the airport and keep you updated. If you arrive early, we’ll adjust the pickup point so you’re not left waiting outside the terminal.

Can I bring multiple pieces of luggage and a pet?

Yes. Our vehicles accommodate several large suitcases and a small pet carrier at no extra charge. Just let us know the number of bags and if you’re traveling with a pet when you book.

Do you also serve San Antonio and Houston from Luling?

Yes. Luling is well positioned between Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. San Antonio International (SAT) is about a 65–90 minute drive via I‑10 West. Houston IAH and Hobby are about 2.5 to 3 hours east on I‑10. We run private door‑to‑door rides to all of them on the same booking system.

What are the benefits of using our service?

Door to door shuttle service is included on all our trips. Usually trips in Texas are non-stop in a nicer vehicle. Texas Shuttle can pick you up in Luling, Lockhart, Seguin, or your home anytime 24/7. 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. If you don't know your flight number landing in Austin, you can estimate the time and update the flight number and time later.

What type of vehicle will pick me up?

Pickup Locations

Your Texas Shuttle picks you up where it says Ground Transportation at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS). If you are in a wheelchair, do not allow your attendant to leave you anywhere except the designated Ground Transportation curb. 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.


AUS - Ground Transportation / Passenger Pickup is located on the lower level of the Barbara Jordan Terminal at the curb marked for prearranged shuttles and limos. Please let your driver know which door you're closest to when they call or text you.

  • Barbara Jordan Terminal - Lower Level - Ground Transportation at the prearranged shuttle/limo curb outside baggage claim. 
  • South Terminal pickups use the dedicated curb outside the South Terminal exit. 

Austin - Any Address service: we'll meet you anywhere in the Austin metro, not just the airport. Hotels, downtown, UT Austin, the Domain, and surrounding suburbs are all standard pickup or drop-off points.
