  1. Baggage for 4 might have been too much for a Prius, no? I've seen alot of Cruiser's who pack as if they're going on a month-long Himalayan vacation. Wives that need a new pair of shoes each day/night, kids that need a whole bag of toys and gadgets, yada yada yada.

     

    Amazingly, the limo's are the cheapest option as far as car services go. No meter, flat rate, and they might charge you just a slightly small waiting fee to pick up something on the way.

     

    We used this company and they were fantastic

  2. The last time I was at Pier 91 I saw a man, his wife and 2 kids dragging their bags down the Pier towards the stairs to go up on to the Magnolia bridge to wait for the Bus. I thought to myself how cheap can you be to drag your family down the Pier a couple of hundred yards, claim 3 flights of stairs and wait for the bus on top of the bridge to save $85or whatever on a cab fare to the Airport. You’ve got to be a real “cheapster” to subject your family to something like that. Where I live we call that “Head Shaken Dumb”

     

    Sounds horrible. Sounds like a scene out of National Lampoon's.

     

    If you're taking a metered taxi cab maybe it's $20 with the long lines to get into the drop-off area at the notoriously tiny and busy Pier 91. But without traffic it should only be a $10-15 fare. Don't think it's worth it at all to try & save $5-7 by starting your vacation off like that.

     

    Might as well bring a crock pot and your own drinks, mini dvd player, and ask the Cruise to cut you a discount check for missing out on everything else. Must be the same type who sneak popcorn and candy into the movies, and record the film on their iPhones to watch over & over again to avoid paying for the DVD later on.
