SA Limo Services offers AUS airport car service for travelers heading between Dallas–Fort Worth and Austin-Bergstrom International. Whether you’re catching a flight out of Austin, landing there for a festival weekend or bringing a team home after a conference, a private chauffeured ride along I-35 beats renting a car and fighting traffic yourself. Local Austin rides can be arranged through our vetted partner network, all with one point of contact.
AUS Airport Car Service for the I-35 Corridor
Austin-Bergstrom International sits about eight miles southeast of downtown Austin, on the grounds of the former Bergstrom Air Force Base. Its main passenger building is the Barbara Jordan Terminal, and Austin’s reputation as the Live Music Capital of the World often shows up right inside it. Our Austin airport car service connects that terminal with homes and offices across Dallas–Fort Worth.
Driving From DFW to Austin-Bergstrom
The trip follows I-35 south — I-35E from Dallas or I-35W from Fort Worth, which meet at Hillsboro — then continues through Waco, Temple and Round Rock. Near Austin, State Highway 130 offers a way around the center of the city to reach the airport from the east.
| Starting point | Approximate distance to AUS | Typical drive time |
|---|---|---|
| Downtown Dallas | About 200 miles | Roughly 3–3.5 hours |
| Fort Worth | About 195 miles | Roughly 3–3.5 hours |
| Plano or Frisco | About 220–230 miles | Roughly 3.5–4 hours |
I-35 is known for slowdowns in Waco, Temple and central Austin, so we leave room in the schedule, especially ahead of morning flights. For Fort Worth departures, the I-35W route skips crossing Dallas entirely, which can help during rush hour.
Planning Around Austin’s Busiest Weekends
When a major festival, a Longhorns home game or a race weekend lands in Austin, the airport and the roads around it get crowded fast. Booking your ride early gives you the widest choice of vehicles, and it lets us plan a departure time that accounts for heavier traffic on I-35 and near the terminal.
If your group is arriving or departing on different flights, share each flight time and we’ll help you decide whether one larger vehicle or a few smaller ones makes more sense. And if plans shift, cancellation is free with 24-hour notice, which takes some of the pressure off booking ahead.
Popular Reasons to Book a DFW-to-AUS Ride
- Flying out of Austin: when the best nonstop leaves from AUS, a chauffeured ride from Dallas, Fort Worth or the suburbs gets you there without leaving a car parked for days.
- Festival and race weekends: Austin City Limits, SXSW and events at Circuit of the Americas, a short drive from the airport, draw huge crowds. Our ACL Fest guide has tips for first-timers.
- Corporate travel: teams connecting through Austin for meetings downtown or at the Domain can travel together in one vehicle.
- Campus visits: families heading to UT Austin with move-in luggage appreciate an SUV and a chauffeur who helps with bags.
Matching the Vehicle to Your Group
For one to three travelers, our Executive Sedan is quiet and comfortable for three-plus hours on the highway. Families and small groups with luggage fit well in the six-passenger Executive SUV. Teams of up to 14 can share a Sprinter Van, while larger groups heading to a festival or tournament can book a 29-passenger party bus or a 56-seat Motorcoach. See our group transportation options for more.
