Should I reserve a shuttle or just hail a cab?

April 18, 2012

When traveling to and from the airport in anew city, it’s often best to make sure you don’t have to drive. Why? Navigating can be really tough, especially if the city is big and you arrive during rush hour. You’ve got to worry about looking at or listening to directions and try not to rear-end the car in front of you. Can you imagine driving around the busySouthern Californiafreeways and getting lost? Talk about road rage. That’s why it’s smart to plan ahead and hire an experienced driver to take you to your hotel or wherever you’re staying.

Shuttle or Cab?

If you’re flying into one ofSouthern California’s airports, you’ve got a few options – you can rent a car and risk driving yourself, or you can hire a taxi or shuttle to drive for you. Out of the latter two, which is the best option? Shuttle choices include rideshares, where you share the shuttle and have multiple stops, as well as shuttles that can take just you without extraneous stops. You typically pay a fixed rate regardless of how many people are in the shuttle.

Cabs are actually easier to hire, if only because they are typically designed to carry just you and your party to your destination, though you can make multiple stops if you want. And with a cab, you can split the rate with your friends or family; you don’t pay per person like you would with a shuttle.
