Cruisers who use towncar transportation from airport to port?

How much do you tip each way? Does $20 each way sound right, or do you think more?

Thanks.

That is exactly what we tip for our party of two.

I usually tip about 20% and then round up to the nearest $5. I think that puts it right around $20 when we do the port.

Just be aware that some companies include a 20 percent tip in the final price. That's what Tiffany Towncar does and I wasn't aware of that and so I ended up double tipping them (40%). They kindly reimbursed me later. They claim that that is the way most towncar companies do the tips. Is that true?

I just booked Happy Limo for our February trip and was surprised to see the tip included in the price. I don't like that policy and would be inclined to switch to a company that doesn't do that. A tip is a tip based on the quality of the service, isn't it? How do they know they'll deserve 20%? Do we know that the driver will get the tip?

I've seen so many great reviews of Yourride - does anyone know if Yourride also includes the tip ahead of time?

The tip has never been included in any of my Yourride quotes and we have had wonderful service with them.

ILUVWDWTOO, that's good to know - thanks for your response.

I've just posted 4 polls over on the Transportation board to find out what kind of service folks have had with 4 of the limo companies.
