Compare round-trip fares with round-trip driving

  • Shuttle fare is per person

    Set travelers and visits, then one person’s round-trip fare. Stop access or parking is added once per group trip.

  • Driving inputs are round-trip

    Add distance, real fuel economy, fuel price, tolls, and parking. Include wear or depreciation as an extra per-trip car cost if needed.

  • Read group and individual costs

    Compare season totals and cost per person per visit. More travelers split car costs, while shuttle fares increase with each person.
