On DART, you can get downtown for $3 in just under an hour, not counting the time spent waiting for a train. It's slower than taking a cab or an Uber, but about 10 times cheaper. It's also a great, easy way to save on parking - just park at your home station and ride to the airport.
If you can, walk to Terminal A or B from the station and enter security there, then take the Skytrain inside security to get to the terminal you're actually flying out of. It's very fast and comes about every two minutes with mechanical precision.
The only annoying thing about using DART to get to/from the airport is when you can't enter or leave security at A or B. If that happens, you can't take the SkyTrain and are stuck using the slow, infrequent, unreliable TerminalLink buses outside security to get around. This could happen if you have to pick up or drop off checked bags from a terminal other than A or B (or if you're flying with an airline other than American and you need to see a kiosk or ticket agent outside security - to check in, for example - because terminals A and B only have customer service for passengers on American or other Oneworld airlines).
This is the station of DART light rail system. Very convenient to access to downtown Dallas. You have to walk several minutes from the airport terminal, and this station is located outside(open-air), so you feel hot/chilly when it is hot/cold outside.
They had a decent restaurant in the terminal I was in and that’s worth quite a bit
