San Antonio → New Braunfels: key facts

New Braunfels from San Antonio Airport (SAT) by private transfer: $170 per car (1–3 people) or $240 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 41 km via I 35 and PA 1502, roughly 35 min when traffic is light and 35–50 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits for you in the baggage claim area on the lower level of the terminal your flight lands at (Terminal A or Terminal B), holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

New Braunfels is a city founded by German settlers in Comal County, about 45 km north-east of the airport on the way to Austin. The drive takes Loop 410 east from the airport area and then Interstate 35 north through Live Oak, Selma and Schertz into New Braunfels. I-35 between San Antonio and Austin carries heavy traffic, and summer weekends are particularly busy because of visitors heading to the Comal and Guadalupe rivers.

The historic centre of New Braunfels is built around Main Plaza, with streets of old German-style buildings close to the short, spring-fed Comal River. Landa Park, with the springs, picnic areas and the river channel, lies just north-west of downtown, and the Faust Street bridge crosses the Guadalupe nearby. Gruene, a historic district with a dance hall and shops on the Guadalupe River, is about 5 km north-east. In summer the rivers are used for tubing, and many holiday rentals and hotels stand along the riverbanks and near I-35.

Public transport: There is no direct public transport from San Antonio Airport to New Braunfels. VIA buses from the airport serve San Antonio only, and New Braunfels lies outside the VIA network, so the trip needs at least one change onto a regional or intercity service.
