trouble48746 Posted July 7, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Does anyone have any experience with the above named transportation company that would like to share info?

wwinfl91 Posted July 8, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2004 We used a shuttle a couple of years ago that went from the airport to the French Quarter. It went on a route around the various hotels and was a economical way to get from the airport to the French Quarter. I don't know if that same shuttle service went or goes to the cruise port but it did go to the hotel right near the port and the Riverwalk area. I don't know if that helps any but I tried. You might also try posting this question on the Cruise Ports New Orleans board and see if you get answer. There might also be some information on the following website about New Orleans. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Tourism-g60864-New_Orleans_Louisiana-Vacations.html Have a great next cruise.

redspize Posted July 8, 2004 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I have used shuttle several times and is a very reasonable way to get from airport to hotels and pier. The only problem is it takes alittle longer because you makes stops for pick up or drop off on the way. I never had a problem with it. People are very nice and it has always been a learning experience as drivers love to talk about New Orleans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trouble48746 Posted July 19, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Thanks for the info. If you buy RT ticket for shuttle, do they know to pick u up at end of cruise or do you have to call them from port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM2J2R2S Posted July 29, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I just returned from New Orleans and found that the limo service was far less expensive than the airport shuttle. We used: Extreme Elegance Reservations 1.866.799.5466 1.866.652.5466 504.466.0564 832.603.3491 281.726.2166 ray@extremeelegance.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trouble48746 Posted July 31, 2004 Author #6 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Thats great to know. Did you make reservations in advance or are they readily available at the airport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildspirit Posted August 5, 2004 #7 Share Posted August 5, 2004 We just returned from New Orleans, the shuttle cost was 13.00 per person. We did not have reservations and caught it right at the door. This was to French Quarter but passengers were also dropped at cruise docks. It took us over an hour to get to our hotel as shuttle was full and many stops, in comparision, taxi fees were 28.00 to downtown area, a savings of only 2.00. I think the price of limo was 35.00. On return back to airpot we took taxi. Hope this helps.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
