Is Uber available at DFW airport?

Looking for an alternative to the traditional DFW Airport shuttle or taxi? Whether you're going from DFW Airport to the Dallas aquarium or arboretum, get where you're going with the Uber app you already know. Request a ride to and from DFW at the tap of a button.



Yes, Uber is fully available and integrated into the ground transportation network at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) in 2026. After landing, passengers can request a ride through the app and will be directed to a specific designated rideshare pickup zone at their terminal. DFW has a unique "upper level" and "lower level" configuration, and Uber pickups typically occur at the roadside on the arrivals (lower) level of each terminal (Terminals A, B, C, D, and E). To ensure a smooth experience, the Uber app provides step-by-step walking directions within the terminal to the exact meeting point once a driver has been assigned. All standard Uber services are available, including UberX, UberXL for larger groups, and Uber Black for a more premium experience. It is important to wait until you have collected your luggage before requesting your ride, as DFW is a massive airport and drivers are only allowed to wait at the curb for a very limited time due to airport security and traffic regulations.
