Recommendation for Limo Service

Descant · 12-13-2022, 01:41 PM

You can drive to Londonderry, park free and take the Boston Express to Logan, get dropped off/picked up at your terminal. I have also taken Laconia Taxi to Manchester and then whatever transportation I wanted from there. Limo convenience can't be beat, especially when you come back from overseas and it is snow and slush overhead and on the roads and the driver handles your bags. Priceless. Have a good trip.

If it were just me, this is what I'd do. We are returning relatively late at night from Europe and do not want the hassle of the bus and uncovering the car, if needed. I appreciate all the helpful feedback!

I usually park at the Anderson Transpo Center.... that way if for whatever reason your flight gets FUBAR, its not an expensive Uber.

Limo prices last time I checked were ridiculous.... it was cheaper to park in Central parking for my quick hop to EYW.

I had a great experience with Lakes Region Airport Shuttle. I wanted door to door Logan to Long Island. People were nice and everything worked the way it was supposed to. Highly recommend.

Are there enough of us to afford sharing a private jet from Laconia to EYW?

Just an option, but whether you are flying out of Boston or Manchester, some airport hotels allow you to leave your car in their parking lots, if you plan to stay overnight at their hotel. They usually have you park in a special area of their lots.

I know people that stayed overnight at airport hotel, and hotel allowed free parking for a week. This would be extremely convenient, if you have a real early morning flight (which are usually cheapest flight of the day).

Something to consider......

I'm surprised there aren't private flights from Laconia to Fl. Not enough interest?

Hi Tis, there are quite a few private flights from Laconia to Florida and other destinations. Net Jets is one of the most frequent operators running these trips, but there are several others as well. Average cost right now is running about $10,000 per hour for a mid-size jet, so the trip from Laconia to Florida is running about $30,000.

I see a lot of "net jets" flying in and out so I guess they are based somewhere else and just fly into Laconia? 30 is a lot, lot of money, but if three or four couples split the cost, it wouldn't be as bad.

At $30k, three couples would each pay $10k.

I will gladly drive a couple down to FL for half of that and provide 60's/70's music, snacks, drinks and Dramamine.

The singing of mangled or out of order lyrics will require additional tip!

Would this be in your limo? Be careful what you offer!!

It's all about supply and demand. I'm looking at some prices in early to mid January from Laconia to Naples, FL, and the prices are coming in at around $20K. What a deal!

I miss my airline...

Are you looking or considering?

I used "Lakeside Limo" a couple of times for that route. Their rates were pretty decent.
