    I don't think anyone can guarantee which company is best. It will depend on the drop offs on any particular day.

    Thats why I just go for the cheapest.

    https://www.airporttransfers.co.uk normally book with who ever is cheapest from A to B

    For the record, Resort Hoppa were probably the worst co Ive ever used. This was probably down to the coach co they contracted to going bust halfway thru my holiday and probably outwith their control. At another place/time they may have been better

    The Transunion bus drivers are possibly striking on the 16th & 17th July and the other drivers (inc shuttle buses) are joining the bigger strike on 21st & 22nd July.

    I use Resorthoppa and have never had a problem and in fact have found that especially on the return home we have been on a minibus with one other family, even in peak season.

    It may well impact on flights, or rather people's ability to get to and from the airport if there are no buses. the taxi's will be very busy but I can imagine some people not getting to the airport in time.

    Having said all that, when we were there last year a strike was due on our leaving day but Resorthoppa still turned up.

    Just thought Id update. We used resorthoppa and had no problems. We had a taxi at Palma Airport take just the two of us straight to the hotel. His meter showed 60 euros, but of course we had already paid Resorthoppa £52.37 for both drop off and pick up journeys so it was a good deal. Had a mini bus from the hotel to the airport at the end of our stay and again had no problems.

    Would definitely use Resorthoppa again.
