Kinder's Texas Bowl Shuttle (December 31, 2026)

The 2026 Kinder's Texas Bowl rings in the New Year at NRG Stadium on Thursday, December 31, 2026 - 6:30 p.m. CT kickoff on ESPN, Big 12 versus SEC, Houston's biggest bowl night of the season. Texas Shuttle is a fixed-fare, 24/7 door-to-door car and shuttle service, so the price you are quoted is the price you pay - no post-game surge multipliers.

How is Your Service Different?

  • Any Address - We pick up and drop off at your home, business, hotel or any airport.
  • Better - most rides are non-stop and no sharing in a Nice Car, SUV or Shuttle.
  • Flexible - we pick you up on your schedule 24/7. It's also always free to change the date or time if your flight changes.
  • Safer - we don't leave you at a bus stop, and all our drivers go through nationwide fingerprint background checks.
  • Faster - most rides take half the time, because it's just you in the vehicle. No need to stop and wait everywhere.
  • Convenient - Door to Door means no need to arrange or pay for a Taxi or Lyft to get home.
  • Affordable - once you add it all up, it's the same price or less than other shared ride shuttles for two or more people, or less than Uber with just one person.

Texas Bowl Transportation Logistics

Flying in for the game? NRG Stadium is about 12 miles from Hobby Airport - typically a 26-minute drive - and about 28 miles from George Bush Intercontinental, typically 45 minutes outside of traffic. We pick you up at the terminal and take you straight to your hotel or the stadium gates.

Staying in Houston? We drop you at the gate you choose and pick you up at a set time and place after the final whistle - a serious thing on New Year's Eve, when rideshares reposition to downtown parties and leave the stadium lot jammed.

Making a Houston week of it? The Hobby airport shuttle and IAH airport shuttle pages cover both airports year-round, and our booking history includes more than 7,900 completed Houston-area trips.
