This is my first trip since the Pandemic started. I booked a car service to avoid the hassles (wait time, towing luggage, etc.)and extra potential exposure to the virus occasioned by taxis or public transportation. A great choice! The young gentleman driving the SUV was well-dressed, personable, and professional. The SUV (I think it was an SUV) was very clean, and looked new (it may have been new). I’d recommend this service to anyone needing transport from the airport to your destination.

Alvina_L, Jun 2025
Driver was rude. He seemed angry. Dispatch said he was to text us. Never received a text. While putting bags in van, my daughter's hair got caught to one of the bags. No apologies given. During the drive, he talked to himself, ignoring us. At drop off, bags taken out of van with no recognition to us.

Airport shuttle - sounded better on paper than practice.

Lynn_C, May 2024
Upon our 10pm arrival at SeaTac airport I called the number provided. I gave the person my booking ref # and advised her I was waiting outside for our pickup. I was told I would be put through to the dispatcher. I was placed on hold for several minutes. Finally someone answered and I told him we were waiting for our transfer. He seemed confused and said he was located in New York (??) and would have to call the driver. I was then advised we would be picked up in 20 minutes and if not, to call him back. We waited 25 minutes. I called him back and he said the driver would be there in 20 minutes. Yes, he did get there eventually. But from the info I had received after booking, I was under the impression that the driver would be waiting nearby, as they had our flight info & would be tracking the flight. This was clearly not the way it was done. I expected more efficient and professional service.

david_k, Oct 2022
The plane had just landed, we were not even to the gate yet, and they called wondering where we were, I told him we had just landed and he said to call and let them know where we were. And nobody was there. We were on the phone with somebody for 10 - 15 minutes, then we get a call and said they would be another 30 minutes before they could pick us up. not fun waiting, we could of gotten an uber easier

Not a good first impression

Brandi_P, Jul 2022
When we arrived at the airport there was no one in sight. Had to call 3 times and finally after 45 minutes of waiting the driver showed up. I was never told the person coming or what they were driving. It was not a good feeling being in a city late at night stranded.
