our troop recently used toNfro to shuttle us to seabase at the Brinton center from fort lauderdale airport . Linda was very nice to talk with when we booked the trip , She offered a lot of local knowledge as to what airlines and airports seemed to work best . She offered to stop at an alligator farm and take an airboat ride . The Troop loved it ! we stopped in key largo for a very nice lunch . The only issue on the way down is that we Arrived 45 minutes late to the time slot seabase recomends you show up . (Mostly due to Traffic in the Keys ) It was not an issue as we were still able to get everything done that we needed too that afternoon .
The trip back was a little rough , Linda and I spoke several times about us taking an early flight to save significant airfare money , and we decided that a 1 a:m pickup from seabase would work . Linda and Pete showed up at 12:45 A:M to pick us up , They were again in two separate personal minivans , Pete once again had his small dog in his van , and Linda had two small dogs in her van, They were no bother at all . The concern we had on the way back is that it seemed it was Very Possible they may fall asleep , Linda was driving the van I was in , and she was acting very tired , and after every yawn would talk about getting coffee . Then there was an issue with Pete following us , He thought linda was driving to slow , so he called her and gave her a piece of his mind , they had a small dispute via phone , then pete went zooming past linda , with our boys in the van and his window down . they called back and forth most of the trip . Later , the boys in petes car said he was swearing up a storm when talking with Linda , and rolled his window down the whole trip because he was so tired . The boys also said at one point they saw 85 MPH on the speedometer .
Ultimately they got us there , on time and safely . But the trip back was anything but comfortable and worry free . and rather unprofessional .
My assumption is that they were both Very tired due to the time of day . Had I known how the ride back to the airport was going to be I would have spent the extra money on a later flight . read more
