Credit Card Fraud - A2B Transfers and Resorthoppa

[Supacabby]

But Jacqui you do not pay the "cost effective" (imho) rate that A2B charge for their transfers, you pay for a private transfer which is significantly more expensive, your choice of course but just putting facts to your post.

Could they not allow payment on arrival,  although I guess they may be vulnerable for no shows if people changed their plans without informing them.  Am sure I did pay on arrival a few years back with one of the shuttle companies,  but darned if I can remember which one

Sarpedon Travel are the local agent/provider for A2B/Resporthoppa and they do accept cash on arrival (as far as I know). It's a little more than the A2B rate I think but an option. Best way to contact if anyone wants to do that is probably their Facebook group at

It's easy to see why both private and shuttle are popular - we've had countless private transfers over the years and of course it's nice to be private and get going straight away. It's just that even with 4 of us it's  £23 more for us (over 80TL) and I'd rather spend that on arrival, at Frank Cannon's

It's also easy to forget that it isn't all about a Dalaman to Calis service - our next break (well earned I might add) is to Spain where once again I have booked Resorthoppa. Similar airport to resort distance, but for the family is £50.24, Private transfer is £137.58.

I wonder how many CBFers who insist they would never choose shuttle over private, would say the same if a Dalaman to Calis private transfer was £87 more...

Same for us in the Algarve. Resort hoppa £40 - private - £95.

Scunner, we have been there and done that with our kids. booked shuttles, got on coaches etc.,  However, now the kids have flown the nest, we have decided we don't want shuttles, we want a bit of luxury and some "Us" time, you will probably feel the same too when your kids are older and you just have to pay for a holiday for two.
Yes, and after just paying £756.00 for two flights to Dalaman, £87.00 is is drop in the ocean and we would pay for a private transfer.  It's lovely walking out, being met by the driver who takes your luggage put's it in the car and takes you directly to your accommodation.

Yes, I said that already. But I'd rather put £87 in the beer and cornettos fund. Vive la difference.

I'm the opposite, when we had the kids with us, I didn't want to wait around for the shuttle to get going. Now it's just us I don't mind the wait, (and the cheaper price.)

[Scunner]

Not opposite - we would have been the same when the kids were younger. Now they can be bribed with ice cream and kebaps. I have waited 40 minutes and I have been the straggler everyone is on the bus waiting for and got away immediately. I also have found we are normally one of the first off (except once when we were the last). Sad as it sounds, I don't mind visiting a few other places on the way, it is a chance to see what has changed and occasionally a new hotel.

The difference for us there Fran, is we could not afford private transfers when the kids where young and had to do the shuttle thing.   Now we don't have them to look after we can afford private transfers. Did not realise how expensive kids were until they left.

Scunner, At 4.00 am I am just interested in getting to our place ASAP. seeing other places at that time of the morning is not top of my list.

I wouldn't book a flight that arrives at 4am

And also, when our girls were young, there was no shuttle service from Dalaman.
