Recommended car or shuttle services from Galveston cruise terminal to Airport

[slyster]

Can folks share their recommended car or shuttle services from the Galveston cruise terminal to the airports?  I’m reading that Lyft prices can get pretty high during disembarkation (price hike) so I want to do some research on other car or shuttle services.  There will be four of us and most likely flying in and out of Hobby airport.

Check with your cruise line as they are usually less.

Saltwater Moms (we use (fb) or taxi.

Try these 3 local companies in Galveston, they all provide transfers for different budgets. 

Galveston Shuttle & Limo: http://galveston-shuttle.com/get-to-know-us/rates/ (private car transfers)

Galveston Express: https://galvestonexpress.com/galveston-taxi-rates-schedule/ (Shared shuttle Service)

Island Breeze Shuttle: https://www.islandbreezeshuttle.com/rates/ (private car transfers)

We love Saltwater Moms for personal service and have used them many times . And will again this week.

Thank you!  Personally, would prefer a personal car service over a shuttle.  It just means you have to wait for others.  However, if the cost difference is more than I think is worth it, I'll go with the shuttle servie.  Thanks again!

We had a wonderful  experience  with Galveston Saltwater Mom's.  We would  happily  book with them again.

Thank you!  I have it saved!  I will definitely check them out!  I was hoping to find something reliable from port to pier and it appears they fit the ticket!

You didn't mention when your cruise is, but I would suggest contacting Saltwater Moms sooner, rather than later. They book up quickly!

It's not until next August. I did send them a message on facebook.  I will ask them how far in advance I should book.  Do you know how much it costs to use them from the pier to Hobby airport?

You got them "via facebook" I'm assuming? Do you maybe have a phone number, email or URL for them? Thank you.

Hi Doug…I got their email for you.  I am not sure if I am allowed to post it here?  Here is what they said:

 

Have them email me at Bwarren814@att.net

Put their travel dates in the message.  

 

If I am not allowed to post this, apologies.  I can always try to send you a message Doug.

The messaging service on CC has purposefully been disabled.  The rationale was CC wanted everything to be in the open with no secret behind the scene conversations.  (JMHO, but probably had a lot to do with CC discouraging conversations not IAW the rules.)

I realized that after i posted.  Are we allowed to put a business email address in a post?  If not, I’ll delete it and just provide my own email (if it’s ok).

Your are a princess among princesses, Sarah. Thanks for that email! I'll contact her this week. I just booked our cruise (Mar2023), so there are many details I'm getting ironed out.
