Our Daily Schedule is Your Schedule
What is your Phoenix Airport Shuttle schedule? Coming from the Rio Verde area in northeast Maricopa County? See our Rio Verde airport shuttle for direct rides to Phoenix Sky Harbor and Mesa Gateway.
We pick you up on your schedule 24/7. Our professional drivers are normally 5-10 minutes early at your home, or right on time at Sky Harbor. You get to pick the time we pick you up.
What is my pickup time at the Phoenix 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 at the airport?
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 Airport Shuttle 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 Phoenix Airport?
Trips to and from PHX in normal traffic are about 30 minutes versus an hour 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?
2 hours before is normally enough time. Sky Harbor 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 to and from PHX takes about 30 minutes, then 2 hours before your flight takes off is normally good.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. How early should I schedule my pickup for a domestic flight?
Most travelers in the Phoenix metro area should plan for a 2‑2.5 hour buffer between their scheduled departure time and the drive to PHX. This accounts for the typical 30‑minute drive plus the airport’s recommendation of being inside security 2 hours before departure. Boarding usually begins 30 minutes before takeoff, so the 2‑hour window gives you ample time to check bags and clear security. (Source: airportshuttleofphoenix.com)
2. What happens if my flight is delayed?
