Limo from YVR to cruiseport

[CanuckMumof2girls]

Good morning all. My daughters and their hubbys are sailing Volendam in September, First cruise for the Gentlemen. I would Like to surprise them with a limo ride from airport to cruiseport (YVR to Canada Place)

I have googled but there are about 2 dozen that show up and the one on YVR website says "not currently operating", was hoping for something someone has used as a few have pages not updated since 2017

Check on the West Coast Departures board. A number of locals can help over there. The Mods will probably move it there as this has nothing to do with HAL.

If it is an actual stretch limo you want, make sure the service provider has them. Some only have a Town Car that won't hold 4 people and luggage and use large SUV's for larger groups.

 

We've used kjlimousine.com twice and had good service, but only two of us so a Town Car was fine.

Just curious-what’s the difference between a limousine and a town car? (I thought they were the same.)

Limo is usually bigger.

We had a white stretch limo show up at Seattle's Pier 91 last week on a Carnival cruise day.  Consensus from the outside staff was 'why bother?" 

I understand the thought behind the limo ride, but for the same or even less cost, you could have champagne delivered to their stateroom, or pay for a specialty dinner or shipboard photo package.

This is also what I was thinking.

If its a stretch limo you want pleasebe aware you may not get dropped off in the cruise terminal.  A lot of them seem no longer permitted in the underground, and you will be dropped off on the street.  Depending on the kaos you may have a bit of a walk.

 

A year ago we had a luxury SUV take us, no problem getting in.  This spring since I had my inlaws with us I booked at stretch.  Hours before pickup the limo went down so they sent a transit Sprinter instead.  First attempt he was turned away from drop off, second attempt he got in.

 

Still trying to decide for August cruise.  Our local taxi company has a very bad reputation for not showing up for a reservation.  We have an early boarding time so may take the chance
