Do you offer door-to-door pickup from Center and surrounding Shelby County?

Yes. We pick you up directly at your home, hotel, or business in Center and the surrounding Shelby County area and drop you at your DFW or Love Field terminal, with the return trip available the same way.

How early should I schedule my Center to DFW airport pickup?

Because the drive from Center to DFW is about 3.5 to 4 hours, we recommend a pickup that puts you at the airport at least 2 hours before a domestic flight and 3 hours before an international flight. When you book, we factor the long East Texas drive time into your scheduled pickup.

Can I book a one-way or round-trip shuttle between Center and Dallas?

Both. You can book a one-way ride to the airport, a one-way ride home, or a round-trip. Round-trip return pickups are scheduled around your inbound flight so a driver is ready when you land.

We monitor your flight. If your arrival into DFW or Dallas Love Field is delayed, your pickup time is adjusted automatically at no extra charge so your driver is there when you actually land.

How much luggage can I bring on the shuttle from Center to the airport?

Standard checked bags and carry-ons are included for each passenger. If you have oversized items, extra bags, or special equipment, note it when you book so we can assign the right vehicle for the long-haul ride to DFW.

Are shared and private rides both available on the Center to Dallas route?

Private door-to-door service is the standard for this long East Texas route. If a shared option is available for your date it will appear at booking; otherwise your ride is a dedicated private transfer for you and your party.

We need to translate to Simplified Chinese, natural native Mandarin, for travelers. Keep HTML tags exactly as-is. Keep city/airport names, codes unchanged (so "Center", "DFW International", "Dallas Love Field", "IAH/Hobby", "Terminal L", "Terminals A, B, C, and E", etc.). Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged (none present besides a URL in anchor tag). Keep the Houston airport shuttle unchanged? Actually need to keep URL unchanged, but text inside can be translated? The instruction: "Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged." It doesn't explicitly say to keep link text unchanged. Usually they want to keep the anchor tag as is, including its content? It says keep all HTML tags exactly as-is, meaning we cannot modify the tags, but content inside tags is not a tag. However the tag includes href attribute; we must keep it unchanged (the attribute). The inner text we could translate? The instruction: "Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged." It doesn't forbid translating the link text. But "Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is." That means we cannot change the tags themselves (like

,

, etc.). But we can change the text between tags. So we can translate the visible text. However sometimes they'd want to keep the link text unchanged as well because it's part of the content. But they didn't say to keep link text unchanged. Only tags. I'd translate the link text to Chinese as well, but keep href unchanged. We need to produce only the translated HTML. Let's translate each paragraph. Original:

Center Airport Shuttle

-> Chinese: "中心机场班车" maybe? But keep "Center"? Actually city name is "Center". It's a place name. Should we keep "Center" unchanged? The instruction: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." So "Center" is a city name; we should keep it unchanged. So we should not translate "Center". So the heading should keep "Center Airport Shuttle". But we could translate "Airport Shuttle" to Chinese? The phrase "Airport Shuttle" is not a city/airport name; it's a generic term. The instruction: Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged. It does not say to keep other terms unchanged. So we can translate "Airport Shuttle" to Chinese. However we must keep HTML tags exactly as-is, but we can change the content. So heading becomes: "Center 机场班车" or "Center 机场接驳". Which is natural? "机场班车" is common. So: "

" But need to keep the space? Original: "

". We'll replace with Chinese: "

The instruction didn't say to keep company names unchanged. Usually you'd keep brand names as is. Could translate? Safer to keep "Texas Shuttle" unchanged? It's a proper noun. I'd keep it unchanged to avoid confusion. But we could translate to "德州班车". However the original text includes "Texas Shuttle" as the company name; translating may be okay. But to be safe, keep it unchanged? Many translation tasks keep brand names unchanged. I'll keep "Texas Shuttle" unchanged. "your reliable door-to-door transportation provider" => "您可靠的门到门交通服务提供商".

Airport Shuttle from Center, TX

Center is the seat of Shelby County in deep East Texas, about 205 miles east of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex and only a short drive from the Louisiana state line. Because there is no commercial passenger airport in or near Center, most travelers head west to DFW International (DFW) or Dallas Love Field (DAL) for their flights. Texas Shuttle runs door-to-door private rides between any address in Center and both Dallas-area airports, 24 hours a day.

Route & drive times

The typical routing follows US-84 / TX-7 west toward Nacogdoches and Lufkin, then connects to US-259 and I-20 or US-175 into the Dallas area. Lufkin shuttle Nacogdoches shuttle Plan on roughly 3.5 to 4 hours of driving to DFW or Love Field, depending on your exact pickup address and traffic through the metroplex. For a morning flight out of DFW, we generally recommend a pickup that leaves at least 4.5–5 hours before departure so there is a comfortable buffer for the long-haul drive plus airport check-in.

Pricing context for a long-haul East Texas route

Center is one of our longer single-leg corridors, so fares are higher than a typical in-metro hop and are calculated by distance rather than a flat city rate. Private door-to-door sedan rides from Center to the DFW/Dallas airports start around $282 one-way; larger vehicles (SUV or Sprinter for groups and extra luggage) and round trips are priced accordingly. The fastest way to see your exact, all-in price is to enter your full pickup address and the airport below and click Check Rates — the quote is the total for the vehicle, not per person.

Travel tips for Center riders

Book a round trip. On a 200-mile corridor, reserving both directions at once is the simplest way to lock in your return pickup and save versus two one-way bookings.
Give a full street address. Center and the surrounding Shelby County communities (Timpson, Tenaha, Joaquin, Shelbyville) have mileage-sensitive pricing, so a complete address gets you an accurate quote instead of a city estimate.
Allow extra buffer for the distance. Unlike a short suburban ride, this is a multi-hour drive — padding your pickup time protects you against weather or metroplex congestion.
One vehicle, one party. Your ride is private and non-stop; we don’t pack you in with strangers or route you through a bus terminal.

Pricing / Fares to and from Dallas

How much does a shuttle cost to Dallas TX?

It depends on the addresses you enter, if it's in the middle of the night or early morning, and the number of people. Check rates by clicking the buttons that say "Check Rates" below. There are different options under "Select Service" like "To Airport" or "From Airport" and "One Way" or "Round Trip". Choose the option called "Any Two Addresses 24/7" for non-airport transportation between any two addresses in Texas. Rates are total, not per person.

How do I save money?

Enter the promo code "ONLINE" for round trips and save 10% for booking online, or book a round trip and save more both ways. You'll also get a free upgrade to non-stop if you use the promo code "NONSTOP". We're here to help; so if you have any questions, feel free call us.

How Do I Get an Accurate Quote?

Step 1 - You can just type city and check rates, but we recommend entering the full address to get an accurate quote since we have special rates for certain zip codes and most pricing is mileage based. Once you fill in the addresses, click "View Rates".
Step 2 - We include pricing for Texas Taxi, Airport Shuttle and Black Car Service, so you can compare costs and have more options. Choose the type of service you want with the correct number of passengers. Once a price comes up, click "Reserve Now"
Step 3 - Enter your name, cell phone and email to save your quote and automatically get a copy sent to your email. We can easily look up your quote by name if you call and finish up your reservation. Just click "Continue"
Step 4 - The website won't book anything until you enter a credit or debit card on the final booking screen. You will automatically receive a confirmation email with all the details after you click "Confirm My Reservation".

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.

Our Nicer Vehicles

What type of vehicle will pick me up?

We send a Center to Dallas Shuttle or SUV (4+ passengers) or a nice car (1-3 passengers) anytime and take you to any address in Fort Worth Texas, not just DFW. Our Dallas and Fort Worth vehicles are clean and newer. Most vehicles are luxury and full size. We have Mercedes Sprinter Shuttles, Lincoln Navigators, Lincoln MKZ's, and a variety of other vehicles.

Pickup Locations

Your Texas Shuttle picks you up where it says Prearranged at DFW or Ground Transportation at Love Field. If you are in a wheelchair, do not allow your attendant to leave you anywhere except Prearranged at DFW. 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.

DFW - Prearranged Limo is located at the lower level of each terminal. Please choose the closest one to your gate and let your driver know when they call or text you.

Terminal A - Level 1 - Prearranged Limo is across the crosswalk from Door A15 and A29.
Terminal B - Level 1 - Prearranged Limo is across the crosswalk from Door B8 and B30.
Terminal C - Level 1 - Prearranged Limo is across the crosswalk from Door C4, C10, C24 and C30.
Terminal D - Level 0 - Prearranged Limo is Downstairs near Door D22.
Terminal E - Level 0 - Prearranged Limo is Downstairs near Door E35.

Love Field - Ground Transportation is on the lower level down the ramp from the baggage claim. Head to the right, and we pick you up where it says Oversized Vehicles.
