TruckerDave Posted March 19, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 19, 2013 It is about 70 miles each way from IAH to the port. (have to pass through downtown Houston). Nothing is going to be "cheap" sadly.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillslife Posted March 21, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Our transport is only one way for $120 for 2 people. Seems like a lot to me....but we are kinda stuck if we wanna catch the ship....:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgersFan Posted March 24, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I found an extremely cheap weekly rental car rate from Houston Hobby. The weekly rate is $104 for a full sized car. We are coming a day earlier (Friday so with the extra day and taxes the rental is $167 total. With parking (at the hotel) and gas it should cost me about $225 RT for 5 people. I booked it through Priceline and it is NOT a name your own price rate. I could not find any similar deals from the IAH airport, but I can get a one way rental from IAH to HOU for about $50 to pick up my cheap weekly rental and still be ahead of the Limo/Van rates for 5 people from IAH or HOU. By the way, although I read several messages from people who had successfully rented one way rentals from Enterprise from the airport to Galveston, they are no longer accepting one way rentals in Galveston!:( It seems really silly that a weekly car rental is cheaper than van service to Galveston and the Cruise companies need to figure out a better, cheaper way to get their passengers to the port. Adding $400 to my expenses for an airport transfer is ridiculous and I will never cruise out of Galveston again. We will be on the Crown Princess sailing March 30.
