Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a private shuttle from IAH to Galveston cost?
A private sedan from IAH to the Galveston cruise terminal starts at $165 one-way, with a private van (up to 5 riders with luggage) at $170 one-way. Round trip options are available on every vehicle. All prices are flat rate with no hidden fees.
Do you offer round trip airport-to-cruise-port shuttle service?
Yes. Every private ride — sedan, SUV, van, and big van — can be booked one-way or round trip from either IAH or Hobby Airport. Just choose your trip type when booking online.
Is your Galveston cruise shuttle available 24/7?
Yes, we run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Cruise and flight schedules don’t keep business hours, and neither do we.
How far in advance should I book my Galveston cruise shuttle?
We recommend booking at least 3–5 days before your cruise or flight, especially during peak cruise season (spring break and summer). We do accommodate last-minute and same-day bookings when a vehicle is available.
Do you track my flight for airport pickups?
Yes, every airport pickup includes live flight tracking, so if your flight is delayed, your driver adjusts your pickup time automatically at no extra charge.
What is the difference between the shared shuttle and a private ride?
The shared shuttle is $40 per person (3-person minimum) and may include other riders along your route. A private ride is your vehicle only — just your group, direct, at a flat rate for the whole trip.
Which airport should I fly into for a Galveston cruise, IAH or Hobby?
Both work well. Hobby Airport (HOU) is closer to Galveston, which can mean a shorter, slightly lower-cost ride. IAH (Bush Intercontinental) has more international and nonstop domestic flight options. We run flat-rate private and shared shuttles from both airports.
Do you provide shuttle service to all Galveston cruise terminals?
Yes, we serve all four Galveston cruise terminals — Terminal 25 (Carnival), Terminal 10 (Royal Caribbean), Terminal 28 (Disney Cruise Line), and Terminal 16 (MSC Cruises & Norwegian) — along with downtown Galveston, The Strand, and Galveston hotels and vacation rentals.
How many passengers and bags fit in your vehicles?
Our sedans seat up to 3 riders with luggage, SUVs up to 6, vans up to 5 with extra luggage room, and big vans up to 10 riders with luggage — perfect for families and groups heading to a cruise.
Can I book a one-way shuttle from Galveston back to the airport after my cruise?
Absolutely. You can book a one-way ride from Galveston to either IAH or Hobby Airport, or save by choosing round trip when you first book your airport-to-cruise-port ride.
Do you offer transportation from The Woodlands or Sugar Land to Galveston?
Yes, we pick up throughout the greater Houston area, including The Woodlands and Sugar Land, in addition to both Houston airports.
How do I pay for my Galveston shuttle booking?
You can book and pay securely online through our website in a few clicks, or call or text us at (832) 898-3482 and we’ll help you book over the phone.
