A clear Detroit meeting point
Share the hotel vehicle entrance or exact street address and a reachable contact. Extra pickups need to be included before the trip is confirmed.

The service at a glance
A private Detroit–Windsor ride, not a shared bus seat.
This shuttle request reserves transportation for your party between a Detroit pickup and a Windsor address. It is not a scheduled public bus or a promise of an immediate street pickup. A hotel visit, university arrival and casino evening each need their own destination and return details.

The private shuttle
Your itinerary, not a shared timetable.
Here, shuttle means prearranged private transportation for the people in your booking.
The correct Windsor endpoint
Use the Canadian address and the entrance where you want to arrive. A destination such as a hotel, campus or large venue may have more than one vehicle entrance.
Canada-bound travel
Treat the crossing as part of the plan.
The river crossing connects two countries, so every traveller needs to be prepared even for a short visit.
Personal entry preparation
Review the requirements for each traveller's citizenship and status, including children. A driver's route planning does not replace individual entry documentation.
Prepare for the borderAn arrival window with room
If you have a meeting, show or appointment, send the required arrival time. Dispatch reviews the timing, but traffic and inspection can affect the journey.
Why you are travelling
Arrive at the place that matters.
Tell dispatch what changes the travel plan, rather than adding unrelated trip details.
Hotels, homes and meetings
Include reception check-in time or a host's meeting instructions when relevant. The address in your request should be the actual destination, not a general downtown location.
Caesars Windsor and evening visits
For an event or night out, include arrival and return plans separately. A pickup after midnight uses the next calendar date and needs to be confirmed.
Detroit to Caesars WindsorFor this kind of journey
Windsor arrival points are not interchangeable.
Give the destination that matches the purpose of the visit.
Campus and downtown visits
University of Windsor's main campus and downtown facilities have separate directions. For a campus visit, name the building rather than asking to be left at a general university address.
An evening with more than one stop
A restaurant, hotel and Caesars Windsor visit should be listed in order. If you want to be collected later, confirm the return rather than treating a one-way shuttle request as a night-long reservation.
Example: a Detroit hotel to a Windsor campus visit
- Specify the hotel's vehicle entrance and the University of Windsor building being visited.
- Set arrival around the campus appointment, with border processing allowed for separately.
- Request a later hotel return using the actual campus pickup location and date.

What does “shuttle” mean for your trip?
The label alone does not tell you whether a service is private, scheduled or direct.
Private door-to-door ride
A party that wants one confirmed pickup and Windsor destination.
Request the full party, luggage and any intermediate addresses together.
A scheduled or shared service
An itinerary that fits an operator's current stops and departure times.
Verify that the service operates on your date; old cross-border bus timetables may not be current.
An airport transfer
A party arriving on a flight at DTW.
Use the airport route so flight tracking and terminal meeting instructions are part of the request.

Estimates for named journeys.
One way, per vehicle—not per passenger. All amounts in USD.
These examples apply only to the journeys named below—not every trip covered by this service. Other origins, destinations, hourly work and ongoing contracts need a trip-specific estimate.
Downtown Detroit → downtown Windsor
Direct central-city transfer, not a pickup from DTW.
- Sedan
- $89–$149estimated · USD
- SUV
- $119–$199estimated · USD
These are planning estimates, not guaranteed fares. Exact addresses, travel date, stops and availability can put your quote outside these ranges. Multiple SUV models are available; dispatch confirms the assigned vehicle. Each return leg and any different destination needs its own estimate.
Applicable cross-border fees, taxes, fuel surcharges and airport fees are included. Exact addresses, date, vehicle, stops and availability determine your trip-specific estimate. Confirm gratuity, child-seat charges and any changes outside the agreed itinerary with dispatch.
The request is free. Final fare confirmation usually takes 1–2 hours and can take up to 24 hours. An online estimate is not a confirmed reservation. For near-term travel, call to check availability; otherwise we recommend requesting at least 24 hours ahead.
Free request · No payment required
Include the stops and the return.
Add extra pickup or destination addresses using Add a stop. Tell dispatch how long each stop may take. Use the return-trip prompt later in the booking flow for the second leg; each date, address and pickup plan needs confirmation.
A return transfer and a vehicle staying with you are different arrangements. For several appointments, ask whether separate transfers or Hourly / As Directed better fits the itinerary. See how estimates and confirmation work →
Included pickup waiting time.
- Scheduled address pickup
- 15 minutes free from the scheduled pickup time.
- Domestic airport arrival
- 30 minutes free from the flight's landing time.
- International airport arrival
- 60 minutes free from the flight's landing time.
We track arriving flights. Keep dispatch informed about delayed baggage or arrival formalities and confirm additional waiting charges beyond these allowances.
Changes, cancellations & flight disruption.
Cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure for free cancellation and a full refund. Cancellations within 24 hours and no-shows are non-refundable.
If your flight is cancelled, we offer free rescheduling. Contact dispatch with the replacement flight details to arrange your new pickup; a changed flight should not be left as an unreported no-show.
Normal crossing included. Traveller holds are different.
The normal border crossing is included. If a traveller-related issue causes a border hold, waiting is charged at USD $2.00 per minute until the traveller is released. This is different from the normal border queue or the airport pickup allowance.
Prepare the correct documents for each passenger and clarify any travel-status questions with the relevant authorities before departure. A transport reservation cannot guarantee entry or release time.
Before you book
A little planning. A clearer journey.
Practical answers for your trip. Dispatch can help with details specific to your schedule and party.
Ask dispatch a questionIs the Detroit-to-Windsor shuttle shared with other parties?
This page describes private transportation reserved for the party in your booking. It is not a fixed-route public shuttle or a scheduled shared bus.
Can you start at my Detroit hotel?
Provide the hotel's full address, vehicle entrance and a contact number. Dispatch confirms pickup arrangements and availability for that location and time.
Is pickup at DTW the same service?
An airport arrival requires flight tracking and a designated meeting plan. Use the DTW-to-Windsor airport page and provide the arriving flight rather than requesting a standard hotel-style pickup.
Can we return from Windsor after an evening out?
Request the return through the booking flow or dispatch, with the correct date and meeting point. Late pickups are subject to confirmation; an outbound ride does not automatically keep a vehicle waiting.
