Going TO the airport I find it better from TRE, as I hop on shuttle and change to a shuttle to proper terminal (I fly mainly int'l, and usually cannot print a boarding pass, so it's easier to go to Term E).

BTW, 500 shuttle goes both to Orange Line and TRE (except Sunday), so be careful, as DART drivers don't always change signs and you may go the wrong way

Orange Line is very slow, so between the shuttle and the ride downtown is well over an hour OTOH, unless you can get to TRE in time for train, it will still be faster.
Thanks everyone. Ill try and hit the lounge PrioPass for a shower, then catch the 720 am TRE to Victory. Then Ill catch Orange to Ackard where my hotel is.

I was also thinking of going to a Ballgame at Arlington, but it is evident DFW Metro Region really hates mass transit. From Dart's website: Note: There is no DART service available to Dallas Cowboys home games at Cowboys Stadium.

Lovely.
