Default Best deal taxi transfers

I am arriving in Puerto Pollenca on 4th August for nine days.... We are a party of four.
Does anyone know which taxi service would offer the best deal for transfers from and back to the airport... Our flight times are "good". We usually take the hopper but am rather put off with stories about long waits at the airport and return pick up times being far too early.... Last time we took the hopper two summers ago, we did wait for about an hour on the bus before it left the airport.

I have always used Conde taxis without any problem 73e each way, last year we had three different departure days in our large party and each time it was air conditioned minibuses rather than a cab which wasn't a problem for any of us, you don't share it with anyone so plenty of room to stretch out and for luggage. The reason they, on occasions, send minibuses is because they have a large party to pick up so rather than have empty vehicles for return journeys this is what they do. If it keeps the price down then that is fine by me. This year I used Hoppa for the first time but only to go up to PP and it cost me the grand some of £6.57....45mins wait but would have only been 15 if my plane hadn't arrived 30mins earlier than scheduled! It was a pleasant journey and would use them again but will always get a taxi back because I don't fancy they early pickups with Hoppa. This year I stayed in the Sis Pins for my last day and reception called a taxi for me, cost 79e....so Conde are certainly keeping their prices down.

The fares are a set price but if you use the same one a few times they often give a small discount, there are a few to choose from here :- Transport in Puerto Pollensa, Majorca - taxis, bus, trains, airport transfers, i would advise you to pre book with one of the local companies but don't get one on the rank at the airport they are always more expensive and don't know the Pollensa/Port area so will take longer to get you here .

Thank you both for your reply! The Hoppa is so tempting because it's so affordable. I don't you suppose there's any way to check what times their buses leave the airport? Think I may do as suggested by Favie - Hopper to the Port and taxi back to airport for our return flight... Our return flight us at 11.10 am and I don't fancy having to get up at the crack of dawn to catch the Hoppa back to the airport. Whatever... can't wait..!

When one of our sons was leaving he was given 2.15 for the 6.15 flight and was told they have time slots and it was either 2.15 or 4.00 for the 6.15 flight. 4.00 was obviously cutting it a bit fine but in previous years we didn't get the impression they had set times but just sent buses as and when required for the bookings they had.

Hi

We are using Easy Transfers to and from PP. 4 of us with luggage and pushchair. Price I am paying is 132 euros in total so pretty good. My brother in law has used them the last few years and he recommended to me.

Yes, I think it's a bit of a lottery with the times of the buses... Can't be bothered hanging about the airport for hours on way home... Think I'll opt for resort hopper to Puerto Pollenca and a taxi back to the airport for the return flight at a time that suits us.

Thumbs up Taxi transfers

I have noticed plenty of posts about getting to amd from the airport, Mrs S and I have always used a local taxi to transfer. His name is Juan Ferrer Molero who drives taxi 32, he is always on time and very reliable. Last year he charged us 70 euros and we gave him 75,at 150 euros return that works out at approx £109 return which looks a lot cheaper than some quotes I have seen on this site.

Please do not post contact details for individual taxi drivers, it is not fair on the companies which pay to advertise on our main website here :- Transport in Puerto Pollensa, Majorca - taxis, bus, trains, airport transfers .
