Having looked online there are numerous companies offering transfers from the airport into the resorts. Does anyone have any recommendations or advice on who to/not to use? Looking for a prompt and reliable transfer company :)

Depends on the size of the party. 4 is brilliant with a local taxi from just outside the terminal.

Just as cheap to get a taxi right outside the arrivals hall.

T4you have had some bad reviews lately on another forum

Oh, right. All the ones i've read have all been good. And i know a few people who've used him and been happy.
Which other forum was it?
PM me if you'd prefer.

Anyone tried Last Minute Travel? We are thinking of using them later this month. Their website quotes 10 euros from airport to PDC and since hubby has a mobility scooter, this seems the best option for three of us plus a scooter. :) :)

Usually straight away as there's no deposit to pay etc. You pay on arrival at your accom :wink:

Just don't wait for an email confirmation as you don't get one. You just put your booking ref into their website & print it off yourself & take with you. You can't miss their reps in the arrivals hall as they always have a bright orange "Last Minute" clipboard

Hi Sapphire - I've no connection with T4you, and have never used them. However, looking at the thread on tripadvisor I could only find one unhappy customer, not "some" and from the thread it looks like he was kept waiting all of 10 minutes and for that was being offered a full refund. Depending on the day, you can wait much longer than that for a taxi or bus.

There's 2 actually.........including the guy who asked the original question on TA. His return bus didn't turn up at all :roll: And at the end of the day they're more expensive than Last Minute
