Bell Transportation

I reserved the limo share ride for my upcoming trip with Bell Transport. My flight is scheduled to land at 12:15pm and I scheduled transport at 1 pm. We are flying in on Southwest. Have I given myself enough to get to terminal 1 baggage claim and get our luggage or should I change my reservation with Bell? I haven't been to Vegas in many years and have no recollection of how long it takes to get from terminal to baggage claim.

 

I had a similar situation, the driver will text you and you will be in contact with him/her and they will wait for you. You should have plenty of time though.

 

That should be plenty of time. I have used them 3 times in the last year. Our flights are always early from Houston by 10-20 minutes. I just add 15 minutes to my arrival time.
There is a booth where you check in and get some paperwork, then go to the man or lady at standing over by the limos. Very easy, very courteous.

 

Yeah, that should be plenty of time from my experience there. The limo pick up is right outside the baggage claim so there is no wandering around looking for the place to go.

 

You’ll be fine assuming you gave them your flight # with arrival time and where to meet. Plenty of time to get to baggage claim for your scheduled pickup. Bell will look for delays and text you to coordinate if necessary. Have a great trip.

 

These responses put my mind at ease. Thank you all for the swift responses.

 

If you're using the VIP ride share it's less relevant because they aren't going to send a specific car and driver to wait for you. They're just going to have you check in at the kiosk outside baggage claim 8 and once you check in, they'll put you in a car if one is waiting or have you wait until one gets there. They dont really care when you get there. I think they use the reservations and arrival times mostly just to determine if they should send a bigger car at a certain time to accommodate large party.

To answer your question though, that should be way more than enough time, and the specific carousels used for most southwest flights are the closest ones to the Bell checkin booth outside. I usually book mine for 15 minutes after arrival time and I'm usually early. When I'm not, it's because there was a delay getting the bags going on the carousel.

 

So whats a limo for 6 of us going to cost from just a walk up at the airport to Bally's? 60-70 bucks?

 

5-10 minutes. the driver will text you and meet you at the bottom of the escalator with your name on a tablet.
Used them twice last fall with no problems.

 

You'll be fine either way. Sure the flight and time are great for them. But as you say.. you dont really have an exact time you'll be there at the check in window... They will hail the next Limo when you show up. You may have to wait 5 minutes.

 

I used them last year. They asked for my flight number and tracked it to be there when I arrived. They adjust based on the flight timeliness. You should be good

 

As someone else pointed out, you just go to their booth. They give you 2 tickets, one for each way. Head up to the podium, and let the person know you've got a VIP reservation. They'll point out a town car, and off you go. It's nice and easy.
Just make sure to have the confirmation email handy. They'll need that to verify you have the shared limo.

 

As a note with shared ride - as mentioned you go to the booth and you are responsible for your own luggae. They do not have a driver waiting for you with a sign. But also, you may end up waiting. I had a 45 minute wait last April because there were no available vehicles to take me because they were so busy. They didn't want to send me in a stretch because large groups were walking up and booking those. So I had to wait for a town car to come back in. Still by far my preferred manner to get to my hotel.
