Hilary thank you for the update - once you have more information I would be interested also to know for our guests both at Vicky's and via Corfu Selections to offer this service if its fits into their arrival schedules.  Looking forward to hearing more information, Lesley

More details will be available very soon. We are in the process of tying as many flight arrivals & departures together as possible so that many guests can hopefully benefit from what we believe is going to be a great new service.

My only concern would be possible delays from other flights. This would mean a lot of waiting time.

Also what would happen if my flight for example was over an hour late...... would the bus leave and how would we then get to resort?

Cheers

I agree with you Gaviah , one of the reasons we stopped going with companies was the hanging about for others it is so much quicker by taxi . We shall have to wait until all the loose ends are sorted out but if it involves a few flights it may be a problem !

Airport Shuttle Service sounds great, but I agree with Gavlah & Ioanna Once other people are involved you always find you are waiting for someone who has decided to go walkabout. and if the flights are delayed you might as well go with the tour company especially when it is usually paid for! At least if you hire a taxi it is only up to you . :-\

Thanks all for your comments re the above proposed service. Should flights be delayed alternative arrangements would be made, customers would not be left stranded or waiting for others! It is something that we are still fine tuning.....The office officailly opens on 5th May. See you all soon  :)

I notice on the Arillas website/forum (sister is heading to corfu for the first time in years and I was looking for info for her) that there is a posting board for taxi sharing. Visitors post flight arrival times etc and link up with others on the same flight or arriving at similar times and share the cost. I've never noticed that on this forum and wondered whether it had ever been tried??  Mrs Sellsy x

Good idea for taxi sharing. I know Cerys used to put people together for mini bus shares if arriving at the same time.

Just to keep you upto date. After much discussion, the shuttle service is not going to go ahead at present, however that could change as we get further into the season. I will keep you posted via here.
