Our Better Vehicles

What type of vehicle will pick me up?

We send an airport shuttle or SUV (4+ passengers) or a nice car (1-3 passengers) anytime and take you to or from any address in Arizona, not just PHX. Our vehicles are clean and newer. Most vehicles are luxury and full size. We have Mercedes Sprinters, Chrysler 300's, Lexus ES300 Hybrids, Lincoln MKZ's, and a variety of other vehicles to meet your needs.

Our Pickup Locations

Your Phoenix 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 two 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 or an Arizona shuttle with a lot of people?

Other shuttle companies that do shared rides in Surprise 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 with Arizona shuttle 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.

Traveling from Surprise, AZ to Phoenix, AZ: Your Complete Guide

Surprise and Phoenix are two of the fastest‑growing communities in Maricopa County, linked by a short but scenic drive that showcases the desert landscape, suburban neighborhoods, and key attractions of the Greater Phoenix area. Whether you’re heading to a business meeting, catching a flight at Sky Harbor International Airport, or exploring the cultural offerings of downtown Phoenix, understanding the route, travel times, and alternatives can make your trip smoother and more enjoyable. This guide draws on publicly available data to provide clear, estimate‑based information about driving distance, fuel consumption, environmental impact, and convenient stops along the way. All figures are presented as estimates unless otherwise noted.

Driving Distance and Time

According to publicly sourced calculations, the non‑stop drive from Surprise to Phoenix takes about 41 minutes. The halfway point along the most direct route lies roughly 11.2 miles from each city, which puts the total distance between the two communities at approximately 22.4 miles. Travel time can vary depending on traffic conditions, especially during peak commuting hours on major arteries such as Loop 101 (Agua Fria Freeway) and I‑17. Drivers often report that the journey feels shorter when using the toll‑free Arizona State Route 74 (Bell Road) to connect with Loop 101 westbound, then following signs toward downtown Phoenix.

Primary Route Options

Most travelers choose one of three main corridors:

• Loop 101 South – Enter Loop 101 at the Surprise Parkway exit, travel south past Glendale, and continue into Phoenix. This route offers consistent flow and direct access to downtown via the 7th Street or Van Buren Street exits.
• I‑17 South – Take Loop 303 east to I‑17, then head south toward the Phoenix metropolitan core. This option is useful for those heading to the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport area or the South Mountain Park preserve.
• Surface Streets via Grand Avenue – For a more local experience, follow Grand Avenue (US‑60) southeast through Sun City and into Phoenix’s historic districts. Expect slower speeds due to traffic signals and pedestrian crossings.

Real‑time traffic apps can help you decide which corridor offers the best flow on the day of travel.

Comparison of Travel Modes

Environmental Impact

The same data source estimates that an average gasoline‑powered vehicle will emit about 0.79 pounds of CO₂ per mile** traveled on this route. Over the roughly 22.4‑mile journey, that amounts to approximately 17.6 pounds of CO₂**. These figures are estimates based on average vehicle fuel efficiency and the average U.S. regular gasoline price used in the original calculation. Choosing a higher‑occupancy mode such as a shuttle or public transit can reduce the per‑passenger carbon footprint.
