Tips for Limo drivers

[sunshineNJ]

How much do you tip? It's about 45 minutes to the airport from my house. thanks

Traditional tip is 15% to 20% of the total. Some companies include this in their rate, so check that first.

I tip about 15-20%. But I don't tip on the roundtrip all at once. I tip each way...so probably about 10% of the total, each way.

OP is asking about limo to his home airport. Many areas a 20% gratuity is added to limo transportation and sometimes to sedan (towncar) transportation. 20% is the standard gratuity for limo service. 15-20% is standard for taxis.

Shouldn't be any different than using one at WDW/MCO. That's how I tip when taking a car service from home to Logan.
Folks may say that 20% is standard for limos, but I decide what to tip based on the service I am given. I have actually tipped less than 15% when getting less than stellar service!!!

AFAIK many (most) of the Orlando area companies don't add an automatic 20% service charge. Other parts of the country adding such a charge is the norm. That's the difference.

I don't want to unintentionally stiff a person who gives good service nor do I want to double tip.
