Tipping Tiffany One Way?

[PSUGuy]

We've decided to drop car rentals and take Tiffany to Board Walk, returning via DME. It's been a few years since we used this service and I don't recall whether they add the tip up front and we've never done a one-way with them. Since we'll be doing a grocery stop on the way in I would often be a little generous with that driver and do 20% on the outward leg. Anyone know how the billing etc works for a one way, MCO to BW trip?

I went to the website and it says this:

IS THE TIP INCLUDED IN THE GROUND TRANSPORTATION FARE? IF NOT, HOW MUCH SHOULD I TIP THE DRIVER?
The ground transportation fares quoted on this web site do not include tips. We recommend that you tip your driver between 15-20% of fare.

SHOULD I PAY GRATUITY TO THE DRIVER FOR THE RETURN TRIP AS WELL?
No, since you might not have the same driver for your return trip.

Thanks, I prefer to tip in person and in cash especially if I'm well pleased with the service. I always question whether a tip added to a credit card tab gets to the staff in total.

Wouldn't the billing work exactly like the round trip billing, except at the one way rate? Then, if you tip by credit card, you add 20% to the fare, and if you tip in cash, you calcuoate and tip 20% of the fare? What is the etc supposed to cover?

I tip per leg in cash; just in case I don't have the same driver and based on the level of service on each leg.

I usually take advantage of the 30 minute grocery stop on the inbound so that driver usually gets a bit more than the one who does the return trip. For a one way I also tip in cash based on the one way fare and the level of service.

This is exactly what I used to do when we used Tiffany both ways, just wanted to know how things work now with a one way trip.

I think the only difference is the grocery stop - its only offered with a r/t. Otherwise they just bill my cc'd for the fare and I tip cash?

My last few trips I used Tiffany one way with a grocery stop. Most recent was Aug 2018.
