Tipping the driver

[DizFan13]

Hi everyone. We have never used an airport shuttle before, but my mother (who was our ride) broke her leg three weeks ago and so we had to find a new way. I have found a shuttle for a decent price, and reserved our ride. Although we have to leave a half hour earlier than we were planning to, I think it will be ok. My problem is I don't know how much I am supposed to tip the driver? Does anyone have any suggestions?

If, by shuttle, you mean an airport area hotel shuttle of off-site parking shuttle, I would think $1/person is good, unless you have a lot of heavy bags and the driver is especially helpful with them (e.g. helping you take them out of the car). Then add a little more.
If this is something like a Mears shuttle and the distance and/or price is more, then maybe $2/person.
