Shuttle price

I just got a price for a 55 person coach bus from the hotel to the reception and back and then from the hotel to the afterparty and back for $1275.

Is this good?

I paid $1100 for 56-passenger from hotel to RH and back...

Looks like your shuttle is right in the ballpark!

55 person coach bus to and from hotel and reception $1000 includes tax but NOT TIP.. so its close

Re: Shuttle price

Right- then it has a second trip to and from the after party without tip......I think it seems ok, but I could probably bargain?

Re: Shuttle price

Omega Express quoted me for $1200 - not sure why since I'm going from Plainview to Great Neck.

Maybe it's the time of year or the day? I'm on a Sunday....not sure.

Re: Shuttle price

ever think of a yellow school bus?

they are prob half the price. only thing I would consider would be time of year.....july/aug may be stuffy in there even though there is ac.

I was in one beginning of june and it was totally fine!

It could be that extra time to/from after party that'd cost more than 750 but i'd definitely check them out anyway, just in case!

BUahahahah

Actually, FMIL is splitting it with us!

I bet if we had drinkies on the school bus, she'd be fine with it! If there is alcohol, she is a happy camper
