Our Daily Schedule
What is your daily schedule?
We pick you up on your schedule 24/7. Our professional drivers are normally 5-10 minutes early at your home in Tucson AZ, or right on time at PHX. You get to pick the time we pick you up.
What is my pickup time at the airport?
We normally pick you up 30 minutes after your plane lands for domestic flights, or 45 minutes after for international flights.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Pickup times automatically adjust to 30 minutes after you land if your flight is delayed for domestic flights, or 45 minutes after you land for international flights.
What happens if my flight arrives early?
Call or send us a text if you want us to pick you up early, and we will let your driver know that you are ready to be picked up. Otherwise, we will pick you up at the scheduled time on your reservation.
How soon should I make a reservation?
Although there is no set rule that prevents you from booking an AZ Shuttle Tucson last minute, it's a good idea to make your reservation as soon as possible to make sure a driver is available and prevent any delays.
How long does it take to go from anywhere in Arizona or Tucson?
Trips to and from Tucson and PHX in normal traffic are about 2 hours versus about four hours on the bus or a shuttle with a bunch of people. Rush hour will normally add 15-45 minutes (30 minutes on the average).
What time should I be picked up?
The drive from Phoenix or Tucson is normally 1 hour and 40 minutes. 3.5-4 hours before your flight is normally enough time if you're going to Sky Harbor. PHX recommends you to be there 2 hours early to get through security and to your plane. Boarding usually starts 30 minutes before your plane takes off. However, one hour and thirty minutes is normally enough time. So if the drive from Tucson to Phoenix AZ takes about 2 hours, then 3 and 30 minutes before your flight takes off is normally good.
Our Better Drivers
Who are your drivers?
Most of our drivers have been driving professionally with the public for more than 10 years. They have excellent people skills and are usually very knowledgeable about the area (what to do, best restaurants, history and attractions). Some of our drivers are also professional tour guides that go to the Grand Canyon AZ, Tucson, and many other destinations.
We have high standards for our AZ drivers including safety, reliability and customer service. They are very helpful with bags. They get the door for you. All drivers go through extensive background checks with Sky Harbor in order to pick up passengers.
We also train them by driving them through PHX, explaining all the rules, and showing them where to pick people up and drop people off.

Why Choose a Phoenix to Tucson Shuttle?
When you need reliable transportation between Phoenix and Tucson, a professional shuttle service offers door‑to‑door convenience that driving or waiting for a bus simply cannot match. Shuttle drivers are trained to arrive 5‑10 minutes early at your pickup location, so you can relax instead of watching the clock (Source: Airport Shuttle of Phoenix). Whether you’re traveling for business, a medical appointment, or a weekend getaway, the shuttle picks you up on your schedule, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This flexibility eliminates the stress of coordinating rental cars, navigating unfamiliar roads, or dealing with heavy traffic around Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) and Tucson International Airport (TUS).
Travel Time & Route Overview
The most common route follows Interstate 10 West from Phoenix to Tucson, covering roughly 115 miles. In normal traffic the drive takes about 1 hour 40 minutes (Source: Groome Transportation). If you’re hitting the road during rush hour—typically 7‑9 am and 4‑6 pm in downtown Phoenix and Tucson—expect an extra 15‑45 minutes of travel time (30 minutes on average). The highway passes through the vibrant cities of Tempe and Mesa, then opens up to the scenic Sonoran Desert, offering views of the Papago Buttes and, later, the historic Presidio District as you approach Tucson. For those who prefer an alternate route, U.S. Route 60 runs parallel to I‑10 for portions of the journey, but the interstate remains the fastest and most direct option.
