thesmiths Posted May 2, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Figured I'd throw this out there. After doing some research on how/whom to use for transfers, I booked with WingZ. Booked online yesterday and was immediately contacted by both drivers, showing vehicles & drivers, neat service. We are staying at the Holiday Inn Express Fishermans Wharf To the Hotel was $63.00 Return to SFO was $64.00 Started a dialogue with the port driver back to SFO on where to meet already based on his experience. We have an 11:30 flight which is plenty of time to get to the airport with Priority Disembarkation. I have used Uber/Lyft a bunch and am familiar, Figured I'd try them based on a recommendation. So far Happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted May 2, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Just an FYI, Cruise Critic has a policy about recommending someone or something you haven't actually used. Never heard of this company, seems pretty solid based on your info, but just a little worried about their over confidence . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeepCalmBearOn Posted May 2, 2023 #3 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Wingz is a great company. As far as I know, they are an airport pick up and deliver service only, I don't think they do rideshare in general like Uber and Lyft. They are San Francisco based and I've used them at SFO and OAK when I wasn't renting a car and at MCO when I haven't gotten a car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just went to their website and received a quote of $81 which seems pretty reasonable for round trip from OAK to Pier 27. No issues with pick up times finding the driver etc?

I'm doing this one on 7/24 but we're doing Sitka instead of Icy Strait Point. I asked this question in another thread just last week and I'm kind of shocked you weren't bombarded with "Uber! Uber! Uber!" which is pretty much what I got. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
