Transportation
"Drive friendly" is one of the state mottos, and Austin is no exception. Getting to and from the airport - and all around town - is easy. Most major rental car companies are available at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, and other standard transportation options include:

Austin's public bus system is part of a 500 square-mile Central Texas system of more than 3,000 bus stops and 53 routes. Austin is serviced by multiple local bus routes, limited stop/flyer routes, express routes, and University of Texas shuttle routes. Download the CapMetro App for comprehensive maps and details.
