Fly and Ride Vacations | Group Air and Ground Travel

Which airport will I fly from?
Most of our Fly & Ride Vacations are priced using Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport as the standard departure airport. However, travelers may generally choose to depart from any international airport in Texas at the same published package price.

If you prefer to depart from a smaller regional airport or an airport outside of Texas, additional airfare charges may apply based on airline availability and routing.

If you have a preferred airport, simply let American Tours know when making your reservation, and we'll be happy to review your available flight options.
Is airfare included?
Yes. Airfare is included with all of our Fly & Ride Vacations.

Our published tour prices are generally based on airfare from Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport. However, travelers may typically depart from other major commercial airports in Texas at the same package price. If you prefer to depart from a smaller regional airport or an airport outside of Texas, additional airfare charges may apply.

If you have a preferred departure airport, please let American Tours know when making your reservation so we can review your available flight options.
Does American Tours offer Hometown Transfers?
Yes. American Tours offers optional Hometown Transfers between your home and your departure airport for added convenience.

Beginning with departures in 2027, this service is available as an optional add-on for $150 per person. Hometown Transfers are available to and from your closest commercial airport, provided the airport is located within 125 miles of your pickup address.

If you choose not to purchase the Hometown Transfer add-on, you are welcome to make your own transportation arrangements to and from your departure airport.
Will someone meet me at the destination?
Yes. Upon arrival, your professional Tour Director—or a member of their team—will meet you at the designated airport meeting location.

For most domestic vacations, this is typically near the baggage claim area. For international vacations, you'll usually meet your Tour Director after clearing Customs and exiting the secure arrivals area.

Your travel documents will include specific arrival instructions for your tour.
