    Hey
    Just wondering... We joined premier on our last voyage to Desire and are new to its benefits. Does being a member get you a discount on transfers to/from the airport?

    thanks for the help.

    Hola... I don't know for certain what rates you would be comparing the shuttle/transfer service the hotel runs, or operates, or partners with... whatever. The one we are using when we visit TTR/DRM/Pear is that one, the one that the reservations desk sends out. Company's name is ALLDOTOURS.... they always capitalize it so maybe that's how they want it... *shrug*

    Anyway, it costs Stacia & I $75 for our private Suburban ride to/from the Airport to TTR, which I think is way worth it, as it's priate and we always want to get ... frisky a bit in the ride there in anticipation, and you just can't do that on a shuttle van with a bunch of families headed off to a Fam-friendly/kid-friendly resort. Well, I suppose you could, but that's pretty poor taste.

    I used USA Transfers once, and it was comparable, or a bit less... but as I recall we had 3 other couples with us on that trip. So, it depends on what "level" of ride you want. Lots of people in a shuttle van, or just you and your hot-person in a 'Burban/Navigator for a few bucks more.

    USA Transfers have never offered 'shuttle trips' where you share with others, always private and at a cost of $55 return for 1-3 people to TTR. Must be confusing them with someone else.

    As for Premier, it's always been an extra charge apart from when they have had the occasional promo running.

    I understand Premier will be working with a new transport provider soon. I will leave you to guess who ;)

    I could have sworn that it was USA.... I remember booking it through here at CCC....but maybe I've got my trips mixed up in my head. That happens when you've been almost 20 times, I guess. And that, my friends is called a "Luxury Problem!"

    Was there one that used to be called American Express, maybe? That name tickles my memory.

    So.... a "concealed" and new transfer company... Hmm..... Who could it be that has such a good reputation? A mystery.

    I've always used USA thanks to Steve. Always private and less expensive than the transport offered by Premiere.
    Hoping I know who they may be using. ;)
    That would be great!!!!
