Dallas County has both of the region’s big airports: Love Field inside the city, and DFW on its western edge past Irving. Between them are downtown, Uptown, Las Colinas and the Telecom Corridor. QTS handles airport pickups, meetings, games and nights out across the county, with a chauffeur who waits.
We pick up everywhere in Dallas County, from downtown and the Park Cities to Irving, Grand Prairie, Garland and the southern suburbs. Dallas, Irving, Richardson, Addison and six other cities each have their own page, with airport timings and local notes. Everything else is handled from this county page.
University Park bookings, including SMU visits, are handled through the Highland Park page and the SMU game-day guide. Garland, Mesquite, DeSoto and the rest of the county are served from here.
Love Field is the airport that catches people out. Prearranged cars no longer meet arriving passengers at the terminal curb; they wait in Garage C beside the valet pavilion. DFW is simpler, because your chauffeur comes to whichever terminal you land at, A through E.
After collecting your bags, follow airport signs toward the southeast end of the terminal and the valet pavilion/Garage C. Prearranged limousine and private-luxury pickups use Garage C Level 1 beside the valet pavilion. For departures, your chauffeur drops you at the upper-level curb by the ticketing hall. We track every flight into both airports, so an early or late landing moves the pickup with it.
Which airport is closer depends on where you are in the county. Downtown, Uptown and the Park Cities are minutes from Love Field. Irving, Coppell and Grand Prairie are closer to DFW. Addison and Richardson are about the same distance from both. The ranges below assume normal traffic.
| From | Dallas Love Field (DAL) | DFW International | Closer airport |
|---|---|---|---|
| Highland Park | 10–15 min | 25–35 min | Love Field |
| Downtown Dallas | 15–20 min | 25–35 min | Love Field |
| Irving / Las Colinas | 15–25 min | 10–15 min | DFW |
| Coppell | 25–35 min | 10–15 min | DFW |
| Grand Prairie | 25–35 min | 15–25 min | DFW |
| Addison | 20–30 min | 20–30 min | Either |
| Richardson | 25–35 min | 25–35 min | Either |
Rush hour on the Dallas North Tollway, I-35E and LBJ Freeway can double these times. Your confirmation sets the pickup time from your flight, the day and the hour.
Most of our Dallas County corporate work runs between four business districts: downtown and the Arts District, Uptown along McKinney Avenue, the Las Colinas Urban Center in Irving, and the Telecom Corridor in Richardson along US-75. A roadshow day can cover all four, plus a Love Field departure.
Hourly service keeps one chauffeur with you all day, waiting outside each meeting. We also handle groups for the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, the Dallas Market Center and the Irving Convention Center. For private flights, Addison Airport and Dallas Executive Airport each have FBOs, and we confirm the meeting spot with the FBO ahead of time.
Three Dallas County venues make up most of our event nights: the American Airlines Center in Victory Park, Fair Park with the Cotton Bowl and Dos Equis Pavilion, and SMU’s Gerald J. Ford Stadium. Each has its own traffic pattern afterward, and we plan the pickup spot to match.
Stars and Mavericks games and big concerts end with heavy traffic around Victory Park. Your chauffeur drops you near the plaza, waits nearby and meets you at a spot agreed in advance, away from the worst of the post-game backup.
The State Fair each fall, the Red River Rivalry at the Cotton Bowl and summer shows at Dos Equis Pavilion all bring big crowds to Fair Park. We drop at a gate that suits your seats and set a pickup point on a quieter side of the grounds.
Mustang home games turn University Park’s narrow streets into one big tailgate. We bring alumni and family groups in from Love Field and hotels, and our SMU game-day guide lists the home schedule.
Also in the county: Toyota Music Factory in Las Colinas and Texas Trust CU Theatre in Grand Prairie. See the DFW events calendar, the American Airlines Center guide, the Dallas Stars season guide and the State Fair page.
Dallas weddings and galas tend to happen in hotel ballrooms downtown and in Uptown, at country clubs in the Park Cities, and at event spaces in the Design District and Deep Ellum. We provide a limousine for the couple and shuttles that move guests between hotels and the reception.
Downtown curbs are crowded, and many hotels share the drive with valet. Stretch limousines and party buses may need to load around the corner instead of at the front entrance, so we sort out the loading point with the hotel or venue beforehand. For nights out in Uptown, Deep Ellum or Bishop Arts, a Sprinter waits between stops and takes everyone home.
Our Dallas County area covers the whole county: downtown, Uptown and the Park Cities; Irving, Coppell and Grand Prairie toward DFW; Addison, Carrollton, Farmers Branch and Richardson to the north; and Garland, Mesquite, DeSoto, Cedar Hill and Lancaster to the east and south. We cover every neighborhood.
Dallas County clients mostly ask about the airports: where the car meets them at Love Field, how DFW differs, and how long each drive takes. The other answers cover Addison Airport flights, roadshow days, the American Airlines Center, Fair Park, downtown hotels and the Park Cities. Dispatch handles anything else.
Send us your pickup, destination and time, and dispatch will reply with a route, a vehicle and a confirmed price. We handle Love Field arrivals, DFW departures, Las Colinas roadshows, nights at the American Airlines Center and downtown weddings. A real dispatcher answers every request, around the clock.
