When should you book a transfer service? Why?

When should you book a transfer service? Why? No matter where you are traveling, after booking your plane tickets you will need to hire a transfer service that will take you from the airport to your destination city for usually airports are located outside of the city. Once you have landed, cleared customs, and picked up your luggage, getting to your hotel will be a fairly simple task. At every airport you will find at least one transfer service, and in more crowded airports you will have a full-range of options to choose among.

Nowadays, more and more people are choosing to use pre-arranged airport transfers with a private transfer company because the advantages are many. The main reasons why people go for pre-arranged airport transfers are comfort, peace of mind, air-conditioning, and a comfortable vehicle. When you book a pre-reserved airport transfer, you will be booking VIP service: your driver will be waiting for you at the airport gate with your private vehicle ready to take you directly to your hotel or neighbouring city. The companies offering these services usually have a modern fleet so you will be guaranteed all the comfort that new vehicles provide. In addition, many private transfer companies also offer clients round-trip transfers, which means that you can arrange a pick-up from the hotel to take you back to the airport when your vacation or business trip is over. The price for these transfers is not usually significantly higher than a city taxi and it is a very easy choice for most tourists. Somo companies will also offer you a cheaper option for people traveling light and on a budget: shuttle service, where you can share the transfer with other people arriving at the airport at the same time.


If you think you would like to opt for a private transfer service, it is very important that you decide with plenty of time in advance. In order to provide quality, reliable service, companies offering private transfer services require that you book your transfer beforehand. The companies need to know exactly when you are arriving, on which flight, and how many people are you so as to have a suitable vehicle ready for you at the time of your arrival.  Some companies require that you book as much as at least 48 hours in advance! And during peak season, you might have trouble finding a transfer available. That is why as soon as you have all your travel arrangements made, and know your schedule you must contact the transfer company of your choice and make a reservation. You will never be too early to book a transfer, and in some cases, if you book early you will get discounts or a better choice of vehicle. If you would like to book a round-trip service, it might be easier for you to let the company know when you make the reservation since the price will be lowered, but can arrange that once you are at the airport too.

Driving a car in a congested area in Mexico can be a stressful task, especially when the congested area is also one with which you are not familiar. Traveling on business often means finding yourself in an unknown city that is difficult to navigate. Companies offering executive transfers might have the solution to this situation: hiring a limousine or a car service that will drive you after your flight from your airport and to all the other places you need to go to while in town.

Vehicles Used for Transfers from the Airport to Your Hotel

Transfer services are offered at almost every airport of Mexico so that travelers can get to their hotel easily after clearing customs and picking up their luggage after flights. In the most touristic cities you will find a wider array of options, and in smaller airports you will probably find fewer companies offering transfers, still you will have a choice to make when it comes to which vehicle you would like to travel in. According to the service you select, you will have a couple of options of vehicles used for transfers from the airport to your hotel.

Shuttles offer a great option for people travelling on their own, light, or on a budget. When traveling in a shuttle, you will share the transfer with other people that arrive at the airport at the same time as you and are headed to a nearby destination inMexico. As you will be travelling with other people, you do not get to choose in which vehicle to travel. For shuttle services companies usually use large vans. These vehicles are spacious enough to transport about 20 people and a rather small amount of luggage per passenger. Some companies feature older vans while others have a more modern fleet, but still vans are the most common vehicle used for shuttle services. If you are not traveling with a lot of baggage, then this is a great opportunity to save money.

Some companies offer group transportation especially for large contingents of people traveling together to Mexico. If you are travelling together with a group or on an extended family vacation you will probably get this service. To cater for these large groups, most companies will offer a bus. Again, the only variation you will find among the transfer companies is how modern the bus is, so you can always ask beforehand, compare, and decide.


Private transportation is the most popular option among small families on a Mexico vacation, groups of friends, or simply people who do not wish to share transportation. Private transfer is usually provided in sedan cars or small vans. These vehicles are used because they provide a lot of room for luggage for you and your family. Some companies will offer an upgraded option to the regular private service, which consists of transportation provided in better cars. Some companies boast offering transportation only in Mercedes Benz cars. Of course, rates change according to your choice of vehicle. Since there is so much variety in this category it is advisable that you ask the company about what cars they offer, most of them will give you a choice.

If you are looking for the ultimate comfort and luxury, then you will need to look for a company that offers VIP transfer services. VIP transportation makes use of top-quality cars or in some cases even limousines. Luxury cars are the most expensive service, but are also the most personalized and comfortable ones. You will have an exclusive car waiting for you at the airport and your trip will surely be a pleasurable one.

The Two Most Important Things You Must Keep in Mind When Choosing a Transfer Company

Traveling is sometimes a stressful task for it involves making a lot of decisions, reservations, and preparing everything so as to avoid running into any last-minute inconvenience. One of the items you will have to cross of your to-do list is getting a transfer service that gets you and your party from the airport or bus station to the hotel or final destination in Mexico. Transfer services abound in touristic destinations, and even in not-so-popular locations you will find at least one company offering transportation. Wherever you are traveling to the two most important things you must keep in mind after the flights, when choosing a transfer company are: quality of service, and price.

The quality of the trasfer service is very important, and even though you cannot be sure about it beforehand, some companies guarantee some things other do not. In the case of shuttle services (shared transportation to your final destination in Mexico) some companies offer door-to-door service, while others will only make stops at pre-arranged central spots from where you might need to take a taxi. Usually there is not much rate difference between the two shuttle services, but it might be a big difference for you.

When it comes to luggage, some companies are rather strict about the amount of bags you can take with you, while others are more flexible and will take your entire luggage as long as it fits. If you are traveling with a lot of luggage you might want to ask the companies offering the service about what is their policy. Of course, the quality of the service will be highly influenced by the vehicle that provides it. Some companies have a rather old fleet, and you might find yourself stuck in a car without air-conditioning on a hot summer day for the same price you would have paid for a newer car in another company. Ask about this to the companies while surveying your options; they will tell you what car models they offer and then you will be able to choose the most up-dated one.



Another issue that will certainly determine your choice when it comes to Mexico transfers is the rate of the transfer. In cities where competition is big you will find that prices are similar  when comparing similar services, however, some companies offer services that are cheaper since you will be sharing transportation with other people that arrive to the airport at the same time as you. Some companies are exclusively devoted to providing shuttle services, while others will only offer private transportation services or car-rentals. According to what service you want to get, or what is your budget, you will be able to choose from a variety of companies offering services for everyone in Mexico. Bear in mind that cheaper services might also be less comfortable and, in case that you are traveling with a rather large party, might prove more expensive than hiring a private vehicle. In any case, it is highly advisable that you take your time to look around and ask the rates in several companies so as to make sure you are not being overcharged.

The Three Most Important Characteristics a Transfer Company Must Have

Whenever you are traveling to a vacation destination in Mexico or on business, you will need to find a transportation service that takes you from the airport or bus station to your hotel or final destination after your flight. Transfer services are offered at almost every airport and bus station, so once you have cleared customs you will find it easy to get to your hotel. In the most popular touristic places you might feel overwhelmed when it comes to choosing a transfer company. However, there are certain tips that will help you make your choice. The three most important characteristics a transfer company must have are the following.

The first thing you need to make sure when deciding for a transportation company is that the company is reliable. You will probably be at a city that is unknown to you and you might not even speak the same language as the driver, so it is very important that the company be well-known and offer quality service. Although you might get good offers from people who work as free-lancers, it might be dangerous for you might get robbed. The safest option is to find a company that is large, respectable and if possible that keeps track of its transfer vehicles via GPS. You will find that most of the companies that have a desk at the airport facilities are reliable so you should try and book a transfer service from one of them. It is also highly advisable that you book your transportation service in Mexico in advance so you can do a little research about the transfer company.



Another important item you should keep in mind when deciding for a transfer company is that it provides insurance to their passengers. Insurance is very important and as authorized vehicles, companies must provide it. If a company does not provide insurance, then it is not safe for you to travel with it. Some companies in Mexico include the insurance fee in the transportation price, while others will charge you an additional fee, so make sure you ask about this to whomever is assisting you. Insurance will protect you and your luggage in case of an accident or loss of baggage.

Finally another thing you must look for in a transfer company in Mexico is the variety of transfer options. There is a wide array of common transfer options, including: shuttles, private service, VIP private service, and Limousine. Transportation options suit different needs, so according to what are your whishes and requirements you will find a service that best fits you. Quantity of luggage, amount of people traveling, length of the trip, number of children and adults traveling, and what kind of vehicle you would like to get are all influential factors. For example, shuttles are great for people traveling alone and light, while private services are perfect for families or groups of friends. Make sure the company you choose offers a service that suits your specific needs instead of making your needs fit the company’s vehicles.

Travel Comfortably with Transfer Companies in Mexico

Whatever the Mexican destination you are planning on traveling to, you will surely be able to find a transfer or transportation service that will offer a suitable transportation option for you and your party. Whether you are traveling on your own on business, or with your family or group of friends, once you arrive at your destination’s airport and clear customs, you will easily find a transportation service that take you from your flight in the airport or bus station to your hotel or any tourist attraction you wish to visit during your stay in Mexico. In major tourist destinations you will find a wider array of transportation options but, invariably, in all airports there is at least one transfer company. Transfer options include: local bus, shuttle services, private transfer, and VIP private transfer. The rates among the options vary and so does the comfort provided by the vehicles. There are many factors that will help you decide for the transfer that will guarantee you travel comfortably with transfer companies in Mexico.

Local buses in Mexico are probably the least comfortable option. Despite being the most budget-friendly transfer, local buses are usually very crowded, seats are small, there is not a place for your luggage so you will have to take it always with you, and in some cases you might even have to travel standing. This is a viable option only for people travelling light and cheap. If you are looking for a comfortable transfer then you should probably consider some of the other options.


If you are traveling alone to a destination in Mexico, your party is small, and you are taking few luggages, then you can consider booking a seat in a shuttle. Shuttles are cheap and, differently from buses; do have room for storage; however the maximum amount you can take is not much. Shuttles are usually better equipped than buses since they tend to be newer vehicles and most of them have air-conditioning. To make sure you have a comfortable trip in a shuttle, take as little luggage as you can for otherwise you might have to take it with you.

If you are travelling with your family, have a lot of luggage, and do not wish to share your transfer, then the most comfortable option for you is to hire a private transfer vehicle. In most companies, the vehicle needs to be booked in advance so that one of the drivers of the company can be waiting for you at the airport. The driver will help you load the truck which is usually very spacious, and then will drive you directly to your hotel or final destination. Private transfer is probably the most popular transfer service among tourists for it offers the best price-comfort relation.

For people who wish to enjoy luxury in every aspect of their Mexico trip there is the VIP private transfer service. This option provides the same service than regular private service only that in better, larger, and more modern vehicles. In some cases you might even rent a Limousine. VIP transfers offer the ultimate comfort for you and your family. This option is perfect for you if you have small children for upon request the company can provide child car-seats.

Liability Coverage of Checked Baggage by JetBlue

Flying with any airline may imply risks, including baggage related risks. Sometimes people's baggage does not arrive in time, sometimes it has suffered scratches or other similar wear, and sometimes it does not even arrive to the destination. This of course occurs in the worst-case scenario, but most common in long flights or combined flights, passengers can encounter these inconveniences.

People who travel by plane sometimes wonder what are the limits of the liability coverage of checked baggage of the airline they are traveling with. This article will deal with the liability coverage of baggage at JetBlue.

JetBlue covers carrier’s liability for loss, damage, and delay of checked baggage and is limited to provable damages of several Special Drawing Rights per kilogram, per passenger. These vary depending on whether it is a domestic or international transportation. For example, liability coverage for domestic transportation can be up to US $3300 per passenger. However, passengers can pay for a higher value than the one covered. This costs US $1 for US $100 bought in additional baggage insurance. This is only possible for domestic flights only.

Passengers must bear in mind that there are some rules as to what JetBlue can cover. For instance, the company will not be responsible for goods that are fragile and perishable. Further, since there are some dimension restrictions, JetBlue will not assume resposibility for oversized bags, or overweight baggage.


Sometimes luggage can suffer normal wear while being transported. Normal wear can include scratches, or damage to the wheels of baggage. JetBlue will not be responsible for the loss or damage of different parts of the baggage, including straps, pockets, or zippers.

Some personal items are neither covered by JetBlue. Some examples of these are jewelry, watches, computers, and any document that might be in the baggage, no matter whether they are checked or carry-on baggage.

Some other items that the airline does not assume responsibility for the damage or loss of, are currency and medication. Passengers should never check currency and must carry it at their own risk, the same as any essential medication that they carry. Fragile items like bottles, artworks, or any other item that might be broken during transportation will not be covered neither. JetBlue is not liable for irreplaceable items such as antiques checks, or contact lenses. The same applies to pershable items like food, flowers or plants.

It is essential that clients make a claim as soon as possible so that the airline can start working on the case. JetBlue will try to compensate passengers as long as their baggage has observed the check in requirements. The liability that has been described above is regulated by the Warsaw Convention and the Hague Protocol.

When flying, passengers might experience inconveniences with their luggage. In some cases it suffers wear and in other cases it might be lost. For all these cases, airlines assume liability and compensate their clients. JetBlue’s liability restrictions are detailed so as to inform their clients and avoid future struggles.
