Cruisetrio Posted September 9, 2007 #2 Share Posted September 9, 2007 What would be reasonable tips for taxis from Long Beach airport to San Pedro ($36 fare), shuttles from hotel to pier (free), and porters who take your bags at the pier? For the porters, typically $2/bag is the norm. If the shuttle helps you load/unload your bags, which they probably will, again $2/bag. For the cab, if its a set fare of $36, I usually say 10% tip but maybe in this case especially if the cab driver helps with luggage maybe a $10 tip.

melika091900 Posted September 9, 2007 #3 Share Posted September 9, 2007 we usually tip the porters more, since they are handling our luggage.. i gave them 20$ for 7 bags.. seems like a lot . but there was chaos at the pier and the porters were hard to find, so when we got one , we were happy.. as far as the taxi, a few dollars extra is good like 3$-5$ and the shuttle, i would say 5$ is good.. thats just what i tip.. sometimes my mom thinks im crazy, but she doesnt realize how everything changes.. hee heee I love her !!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
