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 Phoenix and Goodyear, or right on time at Sky Harbor. 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 in Phoenix 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 in Phoenix 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 a Phoenix to Goodyear Shuttle last minute, it's a good idea to make your shuttle 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 or Goodyear?
Trips to and from Goodyear in normal traffic are about 30 minutes versus about 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. 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 Goodyear to Phoenix takes about 30 minutes, then 2 to 2.5 hours before your flight takes off is normally good.
Our Better Drivers
Who are your drivers?
Most of our shuttle 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 shuttle drivers are also professional tour guides that go to the Grand Canyon, Goodyear, Phoenix and many other destinations.
We have high standards for our shuttle drivers including safety, reliability and customer service. They are very helpful with bags. They get the door for you. Everyone goes 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.

Phoenix to Goodyear AZ: Travel Guide
Whether you’re heading to a business meeting, a weekend getaway, or catching a flight from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, understanding the best ways to travel between Phoenix and Goodyear, Arizona, can save you time and hassle. This guide consolidates verified details from mapping services, local transit information, and points of interest to give you a clear, answer‑first picture of the Phoenix‑to‑Goodyear corridor.
Driving Distance and Time
According to MapQuest, the most direct route from downtown Phoenix (ZIP 85003) to Goodyear (ZIP 85338) covers approximately 19 miles and takes about 22 minutes when traveling via Interstate 10 (I‑10) westbound [MapQuest]. Distance‑cities.com notes that the geographic midpoint between the two cities lies roughly 9.49 miles from each location, which would be reached in about 12 minutes of driving from either end [distance‑cities.com]. The closest community to that midpoint is Tolleson, AZ, situated about 12 miles from Phoenix and 7 miles from Goodyear, with travel times of approximately 16 minutes from Phoenix and 11 minutes from Goodyear [distance‑cities.com]. These figures are averages; actual travel time can vary with traffic, especially during rush hour on I‑10.
Route Options
While I‑10 is the most common freeway for this trip, alternative routes exist depending on your starting point in Phoenix and any specific destinations in Goodyear. Below is a comparison of the primary options based on publicly available routing data.
| Route | Major Roads | Approx. Distance | Estimated Time (no traffic) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I‑10 West | I‑10 (Papago Freeway) | ~19 mi | ~22 min | Direct, no tolls; passes Sky Harbor Airport area and the Phoenix‑Goodyear corridor. |
| US‑60 West (Grand Avenue) | US‑60 (Grand Ave) → AZ‑101 Loop → AZ‑303 | ~21 mi | ~25‑30 min | Scenic, passes through Glendale and Sun City; useful if avoiding I‑10 congestion. |
| AZ‑101 Loop (Agua Fria Freeway) | AZ‑101 Loop → I‑10 West | ~20 mi | ~23‑28 min | Good for travelers coming from north or east Phoenix; merges onto I‑10 near Laveen. |
All routes are toll‑free. Travel times assume normal conditions; construction or incidents on I‑10 can add significant delay, making the US‑60/AZ‑101 combination a viable alternative during peak periods.
