Do you provide limo service from Houston airport to Galveston cruise terminal?

Is this a shared shuttle?

No. Every ride is a private shuttle — only your group is in the vehicle and there are no stops at other hotels. Shared shuttles charge per person; our price is per vehicle, so for a family of 3 or more it often costs about the same.

What if my flight is delayed?

We track your flight in real time and adjust your pickup automatically. Airport pickups include 30 minutes of free waiting after you land; all other pickups include 15 minutes.

Can you take us back from the cruise port to the airport?

Yes. On disembarkation day your driver waits at the terminal and drives you to IAH or Hobby. Book a round trip and both rides are locked at the same flat rate.
