Evaluate an economy ride to the airport. If you don't mind a budget-style vehicle like a greyhound-type bus, or sitting with many other passengers, this is a practical mode of transportation. A one-way airport shuttle bus ride runs approximately $12 to $15.
Make your vehicle selection based on the number of people traveling and their amount of luggage. A 4-door sedan, minivan or standard limo typically accommodates 4 to 6 passengers and has nominal trunk space for luggage. While larger sized vans and SUVs seat 7 to 8 guests, and have roomy luggage compartments.
Select an airport shuttle company based on their reputation. You can get a referral from one of the corporations in the area to see which shuttle service they deem reliable. Usually a transportation company that has an ongoing corporate account will have proven their track record.
Evaluate rates for services including sedans and limos. A towncar shuttle service usually starts at an average price of $20 per hour, but you'll need to account for varying costs by distance of travel and gas prices. For a more luxury-type ride, a stretch limo will cost you around $50 per hour. You can compare prices at Limo.com (see Resources below).
Look for companies that have competitive rates for service to the same airport. Most shuttle services have websites where you can check their rates, which are sorted by style of vehicle and the distance from your location to the airport.
