Tickets

TRE has two fare zones – one for Tarrant County and one for Dallas County. Local fares are required for travel within each county. For trips that include both counties, passengers need a regional ticket. For specific ticket information, visit Trinity Metro’s website or DART’s website – or see Purchase Tickets section below.

Ride to DFW Airport

Connect to TRE LINK

Trinity Railway Express riders can travel directly to DFW Airport Terminal B by riding TRE to CentrePort/DFW Airport Station and then boarding TRE LINK at Bus Bay A. TRE LINK operates every 20 minutes on weekdays during peak periods. The service time is every 40 minutes during off-peak hours and on Saturdays. Service begins at 5:48 a.m. from Terminal B and at 5:32 a.m. from CentrePort/DFW Airport Station. TRE LINK does not operate on Sundays.

Upon arrival at Terminal B, walk to TEXRail’s DFW Airport Terminal B Station or DART’s Orange Line at Terminal A. For free connections to Terminals A, C, D and E, ride Terminal Link before going through security or Skylink after going through security.

How to Ride

1
Go to the station

TRE rail stations feature connections to other transit services and free parking at those stations with Park & Ride facilities (please refer to the individual station pages to view more information about parking).

2
Buy your ticket

You must have a valid fare to board the train – a monthly or annual pass, GoPass or validated ticket/day pass.

Fares are based on where you board and depart, not how far you travel. The fare zone divider is at CentrePort/DFW Airport Station. Purchase a REGIONAL Ticket to travel on both sides of CentrePort/DFW Airport Station, as well as on all DCTA (Denton County) services. At CentrePort/DFW Airport Station, if you only have a LOCAL Ticket, you will need to purchase a DART Local Pass to travel further east or a Trinity Metro Local Ticket to travel further west. Please check the fare type to make sure the fare media you use is valid for the zones of travel you will cross.

3
Check destination signs

Before boarding, check destination signs, which designate the final stop.
