Waco to Austin Airport Shuttle

Round Trips Save You 10%

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.

    How to Travel from Waco to Austin Airport (AUS): Your Complete Guide

    Whether you’re heading to Austin for business or pleasure, or you’re a Texan traveling out of the state, getting from Waco to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) is a common route. The city of Waco sits roughly 110 miles north of the airport, and travelers have several transportation options ranging from driving and bus services to shuttle rides and rideshare apps. This guide walks you through everything you need to know to plan your trip, including travel times, estimated costs, route details, and insider tips to make the journey as smooth as possible.

    Distance and Travel Time between Waco and Austin Airport

    The straight‑line distance from downtown Waco to Austin‑Bergstrom International Airport is about 111 miles (≈110.7 miles). The most common travel times depend on the mode of transportation you choose:

    • Driving: Approximately 1 hour 47 minutes under normal traffic conditions.
    • Public Bus with Transfers: Around 2 hours 46 minutes, including waiting time for connections.
    • Shuttle or Rideshare: Typically 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on traffic and pickup locations.

    Because the route passes through the bustling I‑35 corridor, travel times can stretch during peak commute hours, especially near Temple, Round Rock, and the northern outskirts of Austin. Planning ahead and checking real‑time traffic updates can help you avoid unexpected delays.

    Driving Directions: Waco to Austin Airport

    Primary Route via I‑35

    The quickest driving route follows Interstate 35 (I‑35) south from Waco. Here’s a step‑by‑step overview:

    1. Depart Waco on I‑35 South.
    2. Pass through the towns of Moody, Troy, and Temple (approximately 30 miles).
    3. Continue past Belton and Salado, staying on I‑35.
    4. Enter the Austin metro area near Georgetown and Round Rock.
    5. Take Exit 1A toward US 290 East/Austin‑Bergstrom International Airport (follow signs for SH 71 East).
    6. Merge onto US 290 East, then take the airport access road directly to the terminal.

    The total drive is roughly 107 miles via I‑35, but using the I‑35/US 290 combination can add a few miles while sometimes avoiding congestion near downtown Austin. If you prefer a more scenic drive, you can also consider US 290 West, which passes through the Texas Hill Country, but it generally adds 15‑20 minutes to the trip.

    Parking at Austin Airport

    Austin‑Bergstrom International Airport offers a variety of parking options, from economy lots to premium garage spaces. The airport has over 10,000 parking spaces, and all lots are within walking distance or reachable by the terminal shuttle. For the most up‑to‑date rates, check the official AUS website before you travel.

    Public Bus Options from Waco to Austin Airport

    For budget‑conscious travelers, public buses provide a viable alternative. Two main carriers operate routes that can be combined to reach the airport:

    FlixBus USA

    FlixBus offers direct service from Waco to downtown Austin. Buses depart from the Waco Transit Center or a designated stop in the city and arrive at the Downtown Austin station (near Congress Avenue). The journey takes about 1 hour 40 minutes. From downtown, you’ll need to transfer to a local Capital Metro bus to complete the airport leg.

    Capital Metro

    Capital Metro’s bus network covers the Austin area and connects to the airport via several routes. The most straightforward combination is:

    • Take a FlixBus from Waco to the Downtown Austin station.
    • Board the Capital Metro Line 20 (or Line 801) at the Downtown station.
    • Ride to the Tech Ridge Bay I stop, then transfer to the line that serves the airport terminal.

    The entire bus‑plus‑transfer sequence typically lasts around 2 hours 46 minutes, with an estimated cost that is generally lower than driving or taking a shuttle. Be sure to check the Capital Metro schedule for the latest frequencies, as some routes operate only on demand.

    For real‑time arrival information, use the Capital Metro app or the Google Maps transit layer. This can help you time your connection and reduce waiting time at the transfer points.

    How Do I Get an Accurate Quote?

    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 Dallas, 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 Dallas, you can estimate the time and update the flight number and time later.
