About Groome Transportation

Groome Transportation provides airport shuttle service in Tucson, connecting local travelers with Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The company's Tucson route serves several points in the community, including Speedway, the University of Arizona, and Twin Peaks, before continuing to PHX. For travelers arriving in the region, the service runs in the opposite direction from Phoenix Airport back to Tucson, with scheduled arrivals at Twin Peaks, the University area, and Speedway.

The Tucson operation was previously known as Arizona Shuttle and now operates under the Groome Transportation name. The company describes the change as a fresh look while continuing the same service, with fleet upgrades planned as part of its broader transition. Tucson is one of the communities connected to Phoenix Sky Harbor through Groome's network, which also includes routes linking the airport with Flagstaff, Grand Canyon, Prescott, and Sedona.

Travelers can reserve a seat through the company's online booking system and can also manage existing reservations there. Groome publishes schedules for both Tucson to Phoenix and Phoenix to Tucson service. On the Tucson to Phoenix route, departures are listed from Speedway, the University of Arizona, and Twin Peaks, with arrival at Phoenix Airport. On the return route, shuttles leave Phoenix Airport at scheduled times and continue to the three Tucson stops. The company notes that passengers must check in 15 minutes before departures. At Phoenix Sky Harbor, shuttles depart Terminal 3 at the scheduled time before proceeding to pick up passengers at Terminal 4.

The service includes several options intended to accommodate different travel plans. Home pickup and drop-off service is available for Tucson reservations, although it must be arranged in advance. The company asks customers to reserve that service 36 hours before scheduled travel. For standard reservations, advance booking is encouraged, with at least 24 hours' notice recommended to help ensure availability. Groome notes that it will try to accommodate travelers without advance notice, but service cannot be guaranteed in those cases. Schedules may also change without notice.

Tucson passengers can use the Speedway, University, or Twin Peaks stops, and free parking is available at the Twin Peaks location. The Twin Peaks location is staffed from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The company's Tucson contact office lists operating hours from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., and questions can be submitted through an online message form. Before traveling, passengers can review the Tucson schedule, stop information, fare details, frequently asked questions, and guidance for finding the shuttle at Phoenix Airport. Groome also offers route updates and travel tips through its subscription list.
