Mini Bus

What?? As many times as I have been to Vegas, no one ever told me about Executive shuttle service. I am sure I overlooked them because they look so regal and I never go to Vegas with anything close to regal money. However, this last trip, I humored myself by checking out their prices and to my surprise they were $1 cheaper than Showtime (which I have always used).

They issue a black poker chip for service to your destination and a white chip for service from your destination. As soon as you leave the baggage claim area and head towards Ground Transportation, their desk is located outside. You can't miss them, I promise. All the vehicles I saw were black; black limosines, black hummers, black shuttle buses. Go for the shuttle bus! The strip is just two miles away so there is no need to pay for anything that lavish just to go around the corner.

My return trip was phenomenal, as well. They told me they would be outside at 11 AM and they were prompt. I was assuming they would be late due to traffic on the strip, but apparently they had all that factored in.

I was the first on the shuttle and they only made one other stop at an adjoining hotel before we headed to the airport. Therefore, I made it to the airport in plenty of time to check-in for my flight.

I arrived in Vegas by myself and I didn't want to waste money on a taxi. I paid $6 and got a one-way token for the Executive shuttle. I was the first one on the bus and I was a little worried. You know when you're on a shuttle and you wait a looooong time for enough other passengers to get on so the shuttle can finally leave? I didn't have that problem here. Within 10 minutes, the shuttle was full and we were on our way. Luckily for me, I was the first to get dropped off. All in all, it was cheap and efficient.

However, if you have 3 people, you're probably better off taking a taxi. The cost is about the same and you can save some extra time.

Just wanted to say that Michael from Executive went out of his way and beyond to help me get my brother transported from the hospital back to my place in Las Vegas. His caring phone calls to me back here in New Jersey, and to make sure all would go smoothly was beyond anyone I have ever dealt with. He is an employee that Executive should really take notice of. Thank you again, Michael and your fabulous personality, and all that you did!!!!

I walked out of the Flamingo expecting to take a taxi to the airport, and found this shuttle service. $7 only to get to the airport? SUCH a good deal (hey, a "5 minute drive" can easily get to $15-$20 with gratuitiy). Maybe I was just lucky, but they left within minutes and I def had over an hour to spare to get to my gate.

I have been booking Executive town cars and limos for both business and personal trips the last few years and have had nothing but great experiences with them. They are always on time and the drivers are good about texting/calling/communicating with you, and they never give you a hard time about anything. I'm not sure what other people were requesting that resulted in giving this company bad reviews (??) but I highly recommend booking them for any occasion - I always book them instead of regular taxis because I can't deal with rude taxi drivers. The charges with Executive have never been unreasonable and the drivers are all cool. :)
