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, 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 mins 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 mins 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 Valley or Phoenix?
Trips to and from Prescott Valley in normal traffic are about 2 hours versus about 4 hours on the bus or a Phoenix shuttle with a bunch of people. Rush hour will normally add 15-45 minutes (30 mins on the average).
What time should I be picked up?
3 hours and 40 minutes before your flight 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 mins 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 1 hour and 40 mins, then 3 hours and 40 mins 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 drivers are also professional tour guides that go to the Grand Canyon, Prescott, 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 PHX in order to pick up passengers.
We also train them by driving them through Sky Harbor, explaining all the rules, and showing them where to pick people up and drop people off.
