The run

The far side of Washington, planned properly.

Dulles is the long one. From Chester it is the far side of Washington, and on a weekday afternoon the last twenty miles can take as long as the first sixty. Anyone who has tried to make an international departure out of IAD from the Eastern Shore already knows this.

Which is why this run gets booked the night before rather than the morning of. Give us the flight number and we set the departure against your actual check-in time and the traffic on the day, not against a guess made a week earlier.

What the fare covers

Tolls are billed at cost. Gratuity is customary but never added automatically.

Worth knowing

Long-haul departures need more runway than you think.

For an international departure we will usually suggest leaving earlier than the airline minimum, because the cost of being an hour early at Dulles is a coffee, and the cost of being twenty minutes late is the trip.

Questions

The ones we get asked most

Is the fare really fixed?

Yes. $165 is set before you book. Tolls are passed through at cost and gratuity is never added automatically.

Is there a night surcharge?

Pickups between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM carry a $25 surcharge. Everything else is the flat rate.

Where will the driver meet me on the way home?

At arrivals, with your name on a sign. Your flight is tracked, so the pickup moves with a delay at no extra charge.

How many people fit?

Up to 4 in the Cadillac XT5 or the Ford Bronco. A group goes in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, quoted with your headcount.

How far ahead should I book?

Dulles gets booked the night before rather than the morning of. Give us the flight number and the departure is set against your check-in time and the traffic on the day.

Which towns do you pick up from?

Chester, Stevensville, Grasonville and Queenstown.

Why book a car instead of driving?

From Chester, Dulles is the far side of Washington, and on a weekday afternoon the last twenty miles can take as long as the first sixty. A booked car plans for that; a guess made a week earlier does not.

Do you track international arrivals too?

Yes. Flight tracking covers departures and arrivals, so a late landing or a long customs line moves your pickup automatically, at no extra charge for a reasonable delay.

What does the fare cover?

Door to terminal, flight tracked, tolls at cost, no surge pricing and no meter. Gratuity is never added automatically.

Can I book the return pickup at the same time?

Yes. Book both legs at once and the return moves with your flight.

Do you run to Reagan National and BWI as well?

Yes. Kent Island to Reagan National is a flat $125 and Kent Island to BWI is $95; each has its own page.

Can the Sprinter van do an airport run?

Yes. Groups go in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, quoted with your headcount.

Is it the same price from Queenstown?

The flat rate covers Chester, Stevensville, Grasonville and Queenstown. Anywhere else on the island, ask and the rate is fixed before you confirm.

Do you do early morning departures?

Yes. Pickups between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM carry a $25 surcharge and are otherwise the same flat rate, with the same flight tracking.

How do I book?

Call 443-960-8059 or use the booking page: four questions, and the run is confirmed at a fixed rate before you commit to anything.

What if the Bay Bridge is backed up?

We build in buffer for the Bay Bridge and for summer Friday traffic on Route 50 when we set your pickup time, and for Dulles we set it against the traffic on the day.
