Trying to figure out how to get home from Houston... any chance anyone heading back past DFW late Saturday/early Sunday and have space?

We have a couple of teams from New England who got our invites late Friday/Saturday and crazily said yes. I’ve spent all day trying to make arrangements for flights that won’t completely bankrupt us and the best option I’ve got is that we’ll leave early Sunday morning out of Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. I had hoped to charter a bus to get us there (there are 23 of us) but all the companies I’ve called said they are completely booked for the weekend.

If there’s anyone that might be heading in that direction (leaving Houston late Saturday night) and has room for some extra passengers (doesn’t need to be all of us, but the more the better) please let me know.

Thank you!

The commercial MegaBus and other nice bus services are a slick way to get from Houston to the DFW area.

For those outside of Texas, this is similar to LA to Las Vegas, NYC to Syracuse, or Saint Louis to Indianapolis. A solid half day of driving.

Texas just be Texas like that.

Thanks. I looked into the commercial bus services but the timing doesn’t seem to work out. At the worst we’ve reserved some rental cars and will drive us there, but still hoping to find a bus so that we can sleep on the bus instead of having the adult mentors driving!

You could check into one way rentals of 15 passenger vans. Probably need 3 including luggage, plus 3 adult drivers.

U-haul costs 20 bucks plus some fee per mile. Anyone with a drivers license can rent it. Try to get a pickup as the Cargo Vans feel like driving a boat.

Haven’t had any luck with finding 15 passenger vans either :(. But i’ll keep looking!

Probably a long shot and not what you are looking for
Vonlane has bus service from Houston Downtown to Dallas Love Field.
It is a bus with 22 seats and personal service on the trip.
Departure time would probably be the middle of the afternoon though and about $100 per person.

My wife travels to champs from Austin on this service.

Thanks Norm. Not quite what we’re looking for as the departure time would be tough for us and we’d still have to get to the other airport. But I appreciate the suggestion!

When we went to worlds in 2019 we just took public transit to and from the airport.

Hobby or Bush, right?

They need to go from Houston to Dallas/Fort Worth, which is quite a haul.

Have you looked at FlixBus or Greyhound? I just checked and Flixbus seemed to have 5:30pm bus fares to Dallas (9:30pm arrival Saturday evening), about $26-30 per person for one way ticket

Thanks everyone - we just found a shuttle bus that will be able to take all of us to DFW! I appreciate everyone who offered suggestions and assistance. See you all in a few days!
