Pick up 3 hours before flight??

Postby Gemini Rose » Wed Oct 09, 2013 10:46 am

We will be leaving DRM on Thursday 10/24 and have scheduled USA Transfers for our round trip transportation. They want to pick us up three hours before our flight. With it being a Thursday and only having carry-on luggage, do we really need this much time?

When we have to leave :( we have found that an absolute minimum is 2 1/2 hours - the combination of traffic, CUN airport departure counter line ups and security can all work against you.

I'm sure you can ask USA Transfers for a later pick up time but do so knowing that you really want to be arriving at the actual airport about 2 hours before your scheduled fight time

Thanks! I guess we'll leave it as is, they probably know best.

We booked with them via this forum, and our trip is in 09/2017. When will we hear from them, if at all? Or just look for them when we land in Cancun and make it outside?

I usually get an email from them a few seconds after booking saying processing and then another 24 hours later saying confirmed. Then you don't hear from them again. They'll just be waiting for you.

USA booked us last year for 3 hours as well, we emailed them and had them drop it to 2 1/2 hours. Like CokeMan said there is always some delays usually at the CUN check in. One year we lost our AG card and had to buy a new one after searching our bags. It always seems to take at least 30 minutes to check the bags and get boarding passes.
