Harry Reid International Airport (LAS)

Getting Around

How to get to and from Harry Reid International Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.

Transport Options at LAS

Harry Reid International Airport is connected to Las Vegas and the wider United States transport network by multiple ground transport options.

Bus & Shuttle

RTC (Regional Transportation Commission) public buses serve the airport, including routes toward the Strip and downtown, though most visitors use hotel shuttles or rideshare instead given luggage and crowding.

Taxi

Metered taxis queue curbside — Terminal 1 outside baggage claim near doors 1-4, Terminal 3 on Level Zero near door 52. Nevada regulates taxi operations, but exact per-mile USD rates fluctuate, so treat any quoted fare as approximate.

Rideshare

Uber and Lyft are both available but are NOT curbside pickups: Terminal 1 rideshare pickup is on Level 2 of the parking garage, Terminal 3 pickup is on the Valet Level of its garage — follow in-terminal signage from baggage claim.

Car Rental

All major rental brands operate from the consolidated Rent-A-Car Center at 7135 Gilespie St, about 3 miles from the airport, reached by free ADA-equipped shuttle from designated stops at both terminals (not from the terminal curb).

Insider tip

Budget extra time for rideshare — Uber/Lyft at LAS route into the parking garage rather than the curb, adding a walk; for a quick Strip-hotel run, the taxi queue can actually be faster.

Transport routes, fares and operators change frequently. Verify current options on the official Harry Reid International Airport website before travel.

Only use official taxi ranks or pre-booked apps at Harry Reid International Airport. Avoid unofficial drivers approaching you in arrivals.
If a rail or metro connection exists, it is usually the fastest and most reliable option during rush hour.
Allow extra time for ground transport during peak hours. Las Vegas city traffic can significantly extend journey times.
Download offline maps for Las Vegas before landing — useful if your data connection is slow on arrival.
If travelling with heavy luggage, a private transfer or taxi is often more practical than public transport.
