    one thing we always do when we book USA Transfers is when they ask what time the return flight is I always put it a hour ahead of the real flight time so that way i'm getting picked up 2 hours early instead of 3..more time at TTR for us!!

    Since the thread got bumped :)

    So, you paid $30 for 2, one way, shared shuttle with other people, long way round with a timeshare offer thrown in! One way transport with USA is $35 without sharing, without timeshare, and shortest route direct to the hotel.

    Only $55 if you want them to do a round trip and take you back to the airport at the end of your stay.

    No need to pay in advance either, you pay on pick up, so no worries about cancelling if you don't make your flight.

    Limo

    Anyone have any experience taking a Limo to the hotel? We have a party of 8 and are just wondering if it would be worth it for the extra space and alcohol already provided and if so any recomendations? Or just use USA

    USA always stops at the gas station mini-mart for me to pick up beers for the ride. In fact when they saw that I was going to pay for roadies at the airport liqour stand, they told me not to waste my money there because they would stop at the gas station

    No Sue, you cant. You have to pre-book.

    The only private transfer you can get without a booking is the 'fake' taxi. Or you can get the shared shuttle (long way round and dropping off other people) or the bus to downtown.

    No you wouldn't be better off by taxi. Taxi from the airport is about $60 one way, back a little cheaper, maybe $35.

    Price for 1- 3 people with USA Transfers is $35 one way or $55 return.
