AhaOhio Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 We have a reservation for a hotel that does not provide a shuttle service (Hampton inn & suites). All transportation from airport to hotel and from ship to airport on debarkation day are taken care of. I assume that taxis will be very busy on embarkation day. Can they be pre-booked well in advance (once we know our check-in time) or are there better options out there? Aside from walking the 3+ miles that is.

smokeybandit Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 We took Lyft from an airport hotel the day of a cruise. We pre-booked it the night before. Worked out great. rjweber3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddy Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 We took a cab. I can’t remember exactly what we paid, but I do know my cfo was pleased with the cost. rjweber3, WAAAYTOOO and USCG Teacher 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found that rideshare can be much more busy these days than taxis, so you might have luck with the common cab, especially for short trips like this. We are also staying at a hotel in Galveston that does not have a shuttle and plan to call a service the night, or maybe a few days, before. Some taxis may already be making their way back to the island if they had an early drop off at one of the airports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AhaOhio Posted January 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 Ended up booking a limousine service. I prefer to have everything pre-booked. A bit pricey but peace of mindd is priceless... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
