Our Pickup Locations

Your airport shuttle picks up where it says Prearranged. If you are in a wheelchair, do not allow your attendant to leave you anywhere except Prearranged. The signs are easy to see and they are always at the outer curb. Sometimes security will send people to the wrong place, so it's better to follow the directions below. PHX also won't allow drivers to walk more than 15 feet away from their vehicle or wait, so good communication is essential. Turn on your cell phone and take it off of airplane mode, so your driver can call or text you. If you don't recognize the number, it's probably your driver.

Terminal 3 Prearranged is across the crosswalk from Door 6 and to the right, south side of the building.

Terminal 4 Prearranged is across the crosswalk from Door 3, north side of the building, first floor. The sign says "Prearranged Vehicles 3 NORTH".

Things You Should Know

Does it make sense to take an Uber or Lyft?

Uber and Lyft drivers often cancel once they arrive at your house, because the app doesn't tell them where they are going until they arrive at your home. Usually they don't want to drive that far and not get paid for 3.5 hours to drive back, or they are unavailable to work for that long. This may result in you missing your flight after 2-3 of them cancel in a row, and they charge you $5 each time for the cancellation. You then try to contact Uber or Lyft over the next week to get a refund, and they don't even have a phone number.

Another thing to consider is that Uber and Lyft drivers are never interviewed, so you may get a depressed guy complaining about his life, a tiny car with no leg room or a creeper. Uber and Lyft also do not train their drivers and Sky Harbor is moderately confusing to most people, so they usually have no idea where to go.

How reliable is the Greyhound bus with a lot of people?

Other shuttle companies that do shared rides in Phoenix or Yuma will try to pick you up an hour or two earlier, but they make no promises about when you will actually get to PHX. If you're on a tight schedule, the shared ride option or the Greyhound is probably not a good idea. Extra stops and scheduling with other passengers can either make you too early or potentially late. Even with great drivers, passengers can be unpredictable and end up making everyone miss their flight.

Phoenix to Yuma shuttle operates 24/7 on your schedule. We offer door to door service and our shuttle service is non-stop, so it takes about half the time as riding the bus.

There is no Phoenix or Yuma train. The closest train goes east to west through Tucson and does not go through Phoenix, AZ or Yuma, AZ.

Phoenix and Yuma flights are advertised as 50 minutes. However, in a perfect world you will normally wait for about an hour to get on your flight and another 30 minutes to get off the plane and get your bags. This means your total travel time by plane is actually 2 hours and 20 minutes.

American Airlines flies from PHX to Yuma and the cost ranges from $192 to $400 per person not including fees for luggage and taxes.

Shuttle Phoenix to Yuma trips are about 2 hours and 48 minutes. Although it takes about 20 minutes longer than the flight in a perfect world, the cost is significantly less to take a shuttle with us, especially if it's 2 or more people. Airlines frequently have delays due to hot weather and high winds, so the 20 minute benefit to flying is can easily swing the other direction making the flight much longer.

Phoenix to Yuma distance is 184.5 miles depending on where you are being picked up in Phoenix, AZ or Yuma, AZ.

Driving from Phoenix to Yuma: Complete Guide

The 188‑mile corridor between Phoenix, AZ, and Yuma, AZ, is one of the most traveled desert routes in the Southwest. Whether you’re making a day trip, a weekend getaway, or a quick business run, understanding the nuances of the drive can turn a simple journey into a well‑planned adventure. This guide covers everything from route options and travel times to safety tips and must‑see stops, all based on current public travel data (source: rome2rio.com).

Key Route Overview

Primary Highway Segment

The most direct driving route leaves Phoenix heading west on Interstate 10 (I‑10). After roughly 75 miles you reach the town of Gila Bend, where the highway intersects with Arizona State Route 85 (AZ‑85) at Exit 119 (source: Wayro travel blog). From there, AZ‑85 continues south through the tiny communities of Ajo and Why before joining Interstate 8 (I‑8) westbound, which leads directly into Yuma. This two‑leg itinerary—I‑10 West to Gila Bend, then AZ‑85 South to I‑8 West—covers approximately 188 miles and typically takes about 3 hours 5 minutes of pure driving time (source: rome2rio.com).

Segment Breakdown Table

Segment	Distance (mi)	Approx. Time
Phoenix → Gila Bend (I‑10)	75	1 h 15 min
Gila Bend → Yuma (AZ‑85 + I‑8)	100	1 h 45 min
Total	188	3 h 5 min

These figures are averages for a nonstop drive; actual travel times can vary with traffic, weather, and rest breaks (source: rome2rio.com).

Travel Modes Compared

While driving remains the most flexible option, several alternative transportation modes serve the Phoenix‑Yuma corridor. The table below summarizes the primary choices, including typical travel duration and practical notes.

Mode	Approx. Travel Time	Typical Cost Estimate	Key Notes
Driving (personal vehicle)	3 h 5 min	Fuel, tolls, and wear‑and‑tear (moderate cost)	Full control over stops, scenic detours, and schedule.
Bus (Greyhound/FlixBus)	3 h 10 min	Economy fare (low‑mid range)	Twice‑daily departures from Phoenix Bus Station (E Buckeye Rd) to Yuma County Area Transit; includes transfers.
Flight (Phoenix → Yuma)	3 h 16 min (incl. boarding)	Mid‑range to premium	Infrequent service; best for those needing rapid travel or avoiding long ground time.

All time estimates include standard boarding and deplaning processes (source: rome2rio.com and Wayro travel blog).
