    Agree about USA Transfers, Never had a problem. We really enjoyed our trip last March when the driver asked if we wanted the short way or the Scenic way (thru the hotel zone). We took the Scenic route and totally enjoyed seeing all of the resorts along the way. only adds a few minutes, but was great fun.

    Always used USA Transfers and never a problem.

    In May of '12 when I found the guy with the sign and clipboard he looks at me and says "Hola, your last name, George?":D

    That's another one to be careful of. The 'Airport website' cancunairport dot com isn't the official airport website at all. This one is:
    http://www.asur.com.mx/

    Someone just bought the name and then used it to promote their transfer business by making out that they were the only transfer company officially endorsed by the airport. They aren't. Same guy runs a Chichen Itza Tour off his website that pretends to be the official Chichen Itza website.

    His whole online business strategy relies on deception and for that reason I would never recommend using them. Besides they are more expensive than USA Transfers :)

    Thanks, Steve. I would use the fake website as the trip got closer. Now I know better.

    I think the 'each' referred to each of the departures for 2 people (two of them), not the price.

    $95 is the total price for all 3 journeys.

    Right, $95 is the total for all 4 people. Arrival for 4 people, departure for 2 people and departure for 2 people. Is that the transfer situation you need? Let me know if I am not understanding correctly.

    Steve, I agree with you. Every time I see that Cancun Airport site saying how they are the official airport site and not to use any transfer or tour company other than them, I get so angry. They just flat out lie on their website and mislead people.
