Tempe Airport Transportation Made Easy
Tempecharterbusrentals.com is a quote-comparison and referral website — not a local bus company, not a motor carrier. That distinction matters for you. Because Tempecharterbusrentals.com doesn't own any vehicles, you're never stuck with whatever one fleet happens to have available on your date.
Instead, fill out one form and you'll instantly compare buses, packages, and pricing from a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving Tempe and the entire Phoenix metro. No account required. No waiting for callbacks to get pricing.
No calling five companies one at a time. A support team is also available every day at 480-769-7630 to build a custom package around your exact headcount, travel dates, and terminal.
See Different Buses, Pictures, and Packages for Your Airport Transportation
Not every airport run looks the same, and on Tempecharterbusrentals.com, you're never forced into a one-size-fits-all vehicle. Moving eight colleagues from the Omni Tempe Hotel at ASU to Terminal 4 for an early departure? A sprinter van handles it cleanly.
Shuttling 40 conference attendees from PHX to a venue on Rio Salado Parkway? A full-size charter bus with undercarriage luggage bays is the move. Compare 15-passenger minibuses, 25-passenger minibuses, 35-passenger minibuses, and 56-passenger motorcoaches side by side — with vehicle photos and instant pricing — and pick what actually fits your group!

Shuttle Buses at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX)
PHX is the closest airport to Tempe — roughly 3 miles northwest via the AZ-143 Hohokam Expressway — and the one most Tempe groups use. The airport served 49.7 million passengers in FY2024 across Terminals 3 and 4, and it handles commercial vehicle pickups on the Arrivals Level 1 curb at both terminals. Charter buses stage in a remote commercial lot off the terminal roadway and are called forward once your group has every bag and is standing curbside together — not while anyone is still at the carousel.
PHX publishes its full ground transportation guidance on the Sky Harbor ground transportation page. The AZ-143 is your fastest route off-peak; during weekday rush hour, the I-10/US-60 Stack interchange backs up hard and can add 25 to 40 minutes to the same drive.
Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (AZA) Shuttle Buses From Tempe
Flying Allegiant out of Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (6033 S Sossaman Rd, Mesa, AZ 85212)? For arrivals, the bus waits at the Cell Phone Lot at 5250 South Sossaman Road until everyone is curbside with luggage, then pulls to the curb outside Baggage Claim; the airport does not allow parking on the terminal curb. AZA sits about 18 miles southeast of Tempe via US-60 East — roughly 25 to 35 minutes off-peak, longer when the US-60 backs up through Mesa on weekday afternoons.
Gateway is a single-terminal airport with commercial vehicle pickup curbside on the arrivals level. Groups headed to AZA love the minibus option: compact enough to navigate the Gateway access roads cleanly, with overhead storage for carry-ons and undercarriage space for checked luggage. The Gateway Airport ground transportation page has current curbside guidance.
Call 480-769-7630 to set up a Tempe-to-Gateway run on your schedule!
Multi-Stop Hotel Pickup Loops Across the Tempe and Scottsdale Corridor
Conference groups, wedding parties, and corporate delegations staying across multiple Tempe and Scottsdale properties don't need four separate cars — they need one bus on a loop. A minibus or charter bus can swing through the Marriott Tempe at The Buttes on Westcourt Way, the Hyatt Place Tempe on Rio Salado Parkway, the Graduate Tempe on Apache Boulevard, and the Omni Tempe Hotel at ASU on University Drive before heading straight to PHX Terminal 4 — one vehicle, one driver, zero coordination headaches. Build roughly 10 minutes per stop into your departure window when you're working backward from your flight time, and list every address in order when you fill out the quote form.
Or call 480-769-7630 and an agent will stage the whole route for you!
Cactus League Spring Training Airport Shuttles From Tempe
Every February and March, Cactus League Spring Training pulls huge numbers of fans into the Phoenix metro across 15 ballparks — including Tempe Diablo Stadium (2200 W Alameda Dr, Tempe, AZ 85282), where the Los Angeles Angels train. Groups flying into PHX for a week of games across the Valley hit the same problem every year: rental cars are gone, rideshare surges the moment a flight lands, and nobody wants to navigate Rural Road and Mill Avenue in a three-car caravan between stadiums. A charter bus picks your group up at the terminal together and runs the ballpark circuit on your itinerary — Tempe Diablo, Sloan Park in Mesa, Peoria Sports Complex, wherever the schedule takes you.
Spring Training weeks book out fast. Call 480-769-7630 well ahead of February!
ASU Move-In, Graduation, and Campus Event Airport Runs
Arizona State University's Tempe campus draws families from across the country every August for move-in and every May for commencement. Both windows hit PHX with enormous arrival volume at the same time, which means rideshare queues on the Arrivals level stretch long and rental car counters run dry. A charter bus or minibus rental solves it: one vehicle picks the whole family group up at baggage claim, handles the luggage — including the XL bins and the mini-fridge — and delivers everyone to the dorm or the hotel without three separate Uber accounts.
ASU graduation at Mountain America Stadium (500 E Veterans Way, Tempe, AZ 85281) also means Mill Avenue and Rural Road close to through traffic during ceremony windows, so your driver plans the approach ahead of time instead of discovering the closure at the intersection. ASU's university-wide commencement dates already put the next spring ceremony on May 10, 2027, so that May airport surge has a date on the calendar. Book early — August move-in and May graduation are two of the highest-demand weeks in the entire Tempe market!
Waste Management Phoenix Open and Major Valley Event Airport Transfers
The Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale draws more than 700,000 attendees over its February tournament week — making it the best-attended golf tournament on the PGA Tour and one of the single busiest airport weeks of the Arizona year. Groups flying into PHX for the Open, for Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale at WestWorld in January, or for a Fiesta Bowl weekend at State Farm Stadium in Glendale all route through Tempe and the East Valley. Every one of those events pulls from the same pool of available vehicles across the Phoenix metro at the same time.
Waiting until the week before means higher rates and slim pickings. A charter bus or minibus rental from the network gets your group from PHX to the hotel corridor — Scottsdale Road, the 101, wherever you're staying — without anyone standing in a rideshare queue after a four-hour flight. Book three to six months out for any of those dates!

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) is closest — about 3 miles northwest of central Tempe via the AZ-143 Hohokam Expressway, roughly 8 to 12 minutes off-peak. During weekday rush hour, the I-10/US-60 Stack interchange adds 25 to 40 minutes to the same drive. Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (AZA) is about 18 miles southeast via US-60 East, typically 25 to 35 minutes.
Build a buffer on any morning departure — the AZ-143 moves fast at 6 a.m. but not at 7:30.
Commercial vehicle pickup at PHX Terminal 4 is on the Arrivals Level 1 curb, in the designated commercial zone rather than the general passenger lanes. Charter buses stage in a remote commercial lot off the terminal roadway and are called forward once your entire group — with every bag — is standing curbside together. Do not call the bus while passengers are still at baggage claim.
One group assembled, one call, and the bus pulls straight to you. Confirm current curbside details on the Sky Harbor ground transportation page before your trip.
During ASU football Saturdays and commencement ceremonies at Mountain America Stadium, Mill Avenue and portions of Rural Road close to through traffic for hours around the event. Your driver plans the approach in advance — typically routing via University Drive or Apache Boulevard depending on the closure window — rather than discovering the restriction at the intersection. When you book through Tempecharterbusrentals.com, mention the event date and your pickup address so the quote reflects the full route, not just the straight-line mileage.
Yes, and multi-stop loops are one of the most common airport setups booked through the network. A typical Tempe run might hit the Omni Tempe Hotel at ASU, the Hyatt Place on Rio Salado Parkway, and the Marriott at The Buttes before heading to the terminal. Add about 10 minutes per stop when working backward from your departure time.
List every address in order when you fill out the quote form, or call 480-769-7630 and an agent will stage the full route for you.
Book three to six months in advance for Cactus League Spring Training (February–March) and the Waste Management Phoenix Open in February. Both events flood the Phoenix metro with group travel simultaneously, pulling from the same pool of available vehicles across the entire Valley. Waiting until two weeks before means higher rates and very limited vehicle selection.
