How to Plan the Drive from AUS to La Grange
Arrange onward transport before you leave the airport. A rental car gives you a vehicle for the drive; for a prearranged ride, ask a shuttle, taxi or charter company whether it serves La Grange and confirm the pickup details.
Keep the airport’s pickup zones in mind if you’re arranging a taxi or rideshare: both use the area under the Consolidated Rental Car Facility, while rideshare passengers can take the tram from the Red Garage’s first floor. The Barbara Jordan Terminal cell-phone waiting lot is open 24/7 at 2901 Spirit of Texas Drive.
What to Check Before You Travel
Confirm the provider, La Grange service, pickup point, fare and booking terms before your trip. Shuttle Finder is no longer taking airport-shuttle reservations for its La Grange-to-AUS route and provides no current fare, schedule or booking terms. The airport and transit sources do not specify a scheduled public shuttle between AUS and La Grange.
Check the official site before you go: Austin-Bergstrom’s ground-transportation information provides airport pickup and provider details. CapMetro’s Route 20 information covers travel into Austin, not a transit journey to La Grange.
Arriving in La Grange
