Phoenix → Phoenix: key facts

A private transfer from Phoenix Airport (PHX) to Phoenix city centre costs $130 per car for 1–3 passengers and $190 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 10 km; the drive takes about 10 min with clear roads, so plan on 10–20 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: Your driver waits in the baggage claim area on Level 1 of the terminal your flight lands at (Terminal 3 or Terminal 4), the zone the airport designates for meet-and-greet pickups around the baggage carousels. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Downtown Phoenix sits only about 8 km west of Sky Harbor, which makes this one of the shortest airport runs of any large American city. Drivers leave the terminals on the Sky Harbor Boulevard roadway and continue either on Interstate 10 westbound, exiting at 7th Street or 7th Avenue, or along the surface streets of Washington and Jefferson. There are no toll roads in the Phoenix area. Weekday rush hours on I-10 near the Broadway Curve and big events at the downtown arenas are what usually slows the drive.

The downtown core is a grid around Washington and Jefferson Streets, with the Phoenix Convention Center, the arena and the baseball stadium in the south-east corner and Roosevelt Row's galleries a few blocks north. Heritage Square, with the Victorian Rosson House, and the Arizona Science Center lie on Monroe Street, while the Arizona State University downtown campus surrounds Civic Space Park. Most hotels have a front drive or a loading zone, so cars stop right at the door; summer afternoons are very hot, which makes short walks with luggage harder than they look.

Public transport instead: Valley Metro Rail (via free PHX Sky Train to 44th Street/Washington station) from PHX Sky Train at Terminal 3 or Terminal 4 -> 44th Street PHX Sky Train Station / 44th St & Washington light rail stop to Downtown Phoenix light rail stops on Washington and Jefferson Streets (e.g. 3rd Street, 1st Avenue / Central Avenue area), PHX Sky Train every 3.5-7 min (5 a.m.-10 p.m.), 24 h, 1 change.
