Why travelers book this route
Corridor trips like this one are our bread and butter: a fixed pickup time, a named driver, and a flat price quoted before you book. Business travelers use the ride as working time between cities; families book the van so luggage, car seats, and grandparents ride in one vehicle; airport connections get a buffered pickup time matched to the flight. Every completed trip is tracked, and the fare statistics on this page come from that same trip history — not from a rate table that nobody audits.
