Orlando
International Airport taxi's and shuttles to Port Canaveral
Port Canaveral Taxi Cabs & Airport Shuttle Bus services v.s
Offsite Tours Transportation Service?
There
are plenty of Port Canaveraltaxi
cabs and shuttle bus companiesto choose from
that can provide
you with transportation to
Port
Canaveral vying for your business, so how do you choose?
Some people look at price. Well isn't the price of thetransportation
the major part of the trip? No price only reflexs a portion of the over
all cost of your transportation.
The part most over looked is the actual " SERVICE " itself. Here's what
I mean. Let's say you call an
Orlando"Airport Taxi Cab
Company A" to take you to Port Canaveral and
"Airport
Taxi Cab Company A" tells you the flat rate
price will be $100.00. Now you say hmmm I wonder whatOffsite
Tours Transportation charges let me give them a
call. Offsite Tours Transportationtells
you we charge $125.00 to Port
Canaveral (which is the actual cost to provide your transportation. Well
someOrlando-Sanford Internationalairport taxi cabs or
Orlando-Sanford airport shuttle services to Port Canaveral
will sell it for far less than it's actual cost thus creating in the
minds of the public that those of us who are actually charging the
right amount it makes us look like theives when it's really them.
Because now with the gas prices being as high as they are and you now
have to raise your rates people think that now you're too high)
with a guaranteed scheduled pick-up and we can also make any additional
stops enroute from the Orlando-Sanford International
Airport to Port Canaveralat no additional
cost. Which service would you choose? Let's
say you chose "Orlando-Sanford International
Airport Taxi Cab Company A"
because you said to yourself well I can save $50.00 if I book round
trip service to Port Canaveral. So you call"Orlando -Sanford International
Airport Taxi Cab Company A" and you
give them you information it's booked and paid for by credit card so
now you wait. The day of your departure you sit there waiting for your Orlando-Sanford International
Airport taxi and shuttleNow you already know
that the Port Canaveral
is about two hours travel time from your house, so you tell "Orlando -Sanford Airport Taxi
Cab Company A" to pick you up at 10:00
am because you need to be at Port Canaveral so that
check in by
12:30 pm because your meeting some friends at 1:30 pm.. Now as
you watching the clock it's now 10:20 am your "Orlando-Sanford
International Airport taxi cab"is
now 20 minutes late. So you hop on the phone call "Oralndo-Sanford International
Airport Taxi Cab Company A" and you tell them my "taxi cab"to Port Canaveral is
late when will it arrive? The person on the other end of the line
hasn't got a clue they tell you that the driver is only 15 minutes away
please wait. So now your'e stuck waiting. Now while your'e waiting you
just remebered that you needed to drop off your prescription so that
you can pick it up when you arrive at your destination. Where is that "taxi cab" ? finally
you here a horn blowing outside in your driveway it's now 10:35 am the
driver is now 35 minutes late and you still have to stop at the
pharmacy to drop off your prescription and God only knows how long
that's gonna take. So you load up the "taxi cab" and the
driver takes and now your'e off to the pharmacy and then to Port Canaveral .
You tell the drivere that you will need to drop off your prescription
and he says that there will be an extra charge for the extra stop and
that it would cost you an additional $15.00 you agree so you stop and
now you're on your way to Port
Canaveral. The only problem now is that your driver is not
familiar with your area and not only that he has now gotten lost
because he's made a wrong turn and now you're stuck in traffic. Finally
you arrive at Port
Canaveral at 2:30 pm and your rate came out to
$115.00 Now you go to check- in and now there's a security check point
and the line is long.and takes you an hour to checked on board. I have
even seen guest on plenty of occasions where guest have
literally missed there flights because there "taxi cab" or "shuttle bus" shows
up late. Now you may have saved a few dollars but you didin't get the
service that you expected so then you say what "I never use that taxi cab or shuttle service
again. Why was it because of the "PRICE"
no it had everything
to do with the serrvice itself. Undersatnd my point?
Now you have to ask yourself which is more important Service or Price
because when it all comes down to it as for myself and when it comes to
my family being safe. I'm going with Service first the price becomes
secondary especially when I have to ride with someone who is racing
though traffic. I was in a airport taxi
cab in San Antonio Texas and I told the driver to either
slow down or let me out.
When you decide to schedule your transportation with Offsite Tours we
will be there on time and we will get you there safe.We aslo guarantee
our rates.
