Q. What is "Door to Door"?
A. Door to Door Trips will pick you up at your Home,
Hotel, Airport or Cruise Port and take you anywhere
you want to go. The times published on our website
are approximate and will be verified by telephone by
our Dispatch Department the night before your trip.
This service is perfect for those who do not have
the means to get to one of our station locations.
This is a shared shuttle which means there will be
multiple stops for both departures and arrivals
Q. How does "Door to Door" work?
A. Once reservations closes the day before your
scheduled trip, our Dispatch Department will map out
the route for the following day and call each
passenger directly to confirm their pick up time.
The times published on our website are approximate
pick up times and can vary. However, the arrival
time is generally an accurate estimate but it can
also vary depending on how many drop off requests we
receive.
