Our Daily Schedule
What is your daily schedule?
We pick you up on your schedule 24/7. Our professional airport shuttle drivers are normally 5-10 minutes early at your home, 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 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 Prescott or Phoenix? Traveling on to the Anthem area? See our Prescott to Anthem shuttle page for direct Prescott-to-Anthem service.
Trips to and from Prescott in normal traffic are about 2 hours versus about 4 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 trip from Prescott and Phoenix is normally 1 hour and 40 minutes. 3 hours and 40 minutes before your flight is normally enough time if you are going to PHX. 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 from Prescott to Phoenix takes about 2 hours, then 3 and 30 minutes before your flight takes off is normally good.
Our Better Drivers

Why Choose a Prescott Airport Shuttle?
Traveling between Prescott and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) is a common route for business travelers, tourists heading to the historic Prescott Courthouse Plaza, and residents returning home. A dedicated Prescott airport shuttle simplifies the journey by eliminating the need to navigate unfamiliar roads, find parking, or manage rental car paperwork. Most shuttle services operate on a reliable schedule, using the most direct corridors such as Interstate 17 (I‑17) and U.S. Route 60 (US‑60), which connect the two cities in roughly two to three hours depending on traffic conditions.
Shuttle providers that specialize in the Prescott‑PHX corridor often have over 90 years of combined experience, emphasizing customer satisfaction and on‑time performance (Source: groometransportation.com). By booking a shuttle, you also benefit from door‑to‑door service, which is especially convenient if you are arriving late at night or traveling with luggage, equipment, or groups.
Types of Prescott Airport Shuttle Services
Shared‑Ride Shuttles
Shared‑ride shuttles are the most budget‑friendly option for solo travelers or small groups. Passengers are grouped with others heading in the same direction, and the vehicle may make brief stops to pick up or drop off other travelers along the route. Because the shuttle follows a set schedule, you should reserve at least 24 hours in advance to secure a seat (Source: airportshuttles.com). This option works well for travelers who appreciate a lower fare and can accommodate a slightly longer travel time due to multiple pickups.
Private Rides
For those who prioritize privacy, speed, and flexibility, a private ride provides a dedicated vehicle and driver. Private shuttles depart on your schedule and can be reserved with a minimum of 36 hours notice, especially when requesting home pickup or drop‑off at a specific address in Prescott. This service is ideal for families with young children, business groups, or anyone traveling with special equipment.
Home Pickup and Drop‑Off Service
Home pickup and drop‑off is a premium add‑on that brings the shuttle directly to your front door. To add this service to an existing reservation, you must call 928‑350‑8466 and reserve by 12:00 pm the day before your scheduled travel. This option is particularly valuable for travelers staying in out‑lying areas such as Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, or the historic downtown district, where public transit options are limited.
How to Book Your Prescott Airport Shuttle
Online Booking
The fastest way to lock in your seat is through the provider’s website. Navigate to the Prescott shuttle booking page, select your travel date, and choose the service type that fits your needs. Online reservations require a credit card at the time of booking and usually confirm immediately via email. If you need a home pickup, you can add that service during the checkout process or by contacting customer support later.
Phone Reservations
Some travelers prefer speaking with a live agent, especially when customizing a reservation or adding special requests such as child seats or extra luggage space. Call 928‑350‑8466 to speak with a reservation specialist. When calling, have your travel date, pickup address, flight number (if known), and contact details ready. Phone reservations also follow the same 24‑hour (shared) or 36‑hour (private/home pickup) lead‑time guidelines.
Adding Home Pickup to an Existing Reservation
If you already have a standard shuttle booking and now need door‑to‑door service, you can add the home pickup option by calling 928‑350‑8466. The representative will confirm the additional cost (if any) and ensure the driver is aware of the new address. Remember that home pickup additions must be requested by 12:00 pm the day prior to travel to guarantee the change.
