    • Pricing Clarifications


    If pickup location is 4 miles from departure location & dropoff location is 9 miles from departure location, what is my initial hourly rate?

  • Initial hourly rate is $35.00, with a one-hour minimum requirement. This is because the dropoff location or the final destination is between 5.1 - 10.0 miles from the departure location.

    • If I live 12 miles from the departure location, what is the fee for airport transportation on a weekday?

  • The flat fee price is $65.00 one way or $125.00 roundtrip, if you book roundtrip service at initial time of booking.

    • If I live 10 miles from the departure location, what will the fee be for airport transportation at 5AM on a Saturday?

  • Start at original fee of $55.00 (for pickup location within 10 miles of departure location). Then, add $5.00 for pickup being on a Saturday and add another $5.00 for the early hour of 5AM. Therefore, the flat fee price is $65.00 one way or $125.00 roundtrip, if you book roundtrip service at initial time of booking.

    • What will the fee be for airport transportation, per direction, if I live 5 miles from departure location & dropoff is on Tuesday night at 8PM but pickup is on Saturday, at 9:30PM?

  • The fee for dropoff is $55.00 and the fee for pickup is $65.00. However, if you book roundtrip services, a $5.00 discount gets applied to the pickup fee. Therefore, fee is $55.00 for one way and $115.00 roundtrip.

    • Do I have to pay you the roundtrip fee at dropoff?

  • No. You will pay the difference between the one way fee (departure date) and the roundtrip fee, at pickup (arrival date). You can pay the roundtrip fee upfront, if more convenient, but it is not required.
