Bellair Charters / Airporter Shuttle

Carol H

I was travelling from Seattle to Puget Sound and looking for a reasonable fare to get to Bellingham. Rome2Rio alerted me to Bellair Airporter Shuttle, and I am so grateful! For an extremely reasonable rate, I was able to travel in comfort; the shuttle is a full-size bus, with space for luggage underneath and carry-ons in racks above the passengers. The seats are spacious with plenty of leg room; all the upholstery is clean and quite new. Our driver, Yuri, was exceptionally good; he kept us informed every step of the way regarding our expected times of arrival at each stop and any possible delays (e.g., rush hour leaving Seattle). He even told us jokes during our trip! He was truly delightful. He was very accommodating when I asked about an alternative stop in Bellingham and allowed me to debark at the Sheraton downtown rather than travelling out to the airport. He handled all our luggage with care and was extremely respectful and understanding of passengers who had to move more slowly. The shuttle departed on time from the Seattle airport and, thanks to Yuri’s good driving, we arrived in Bellingham right on schedule, despite the traffic in the metro area. I am forever a fan of the Bellair Airporter Shuttle and plan to use it on all future trips to the Seattle area. Thank you so much for a great trip!

Yuri was the best driver I've ever had in my life, and that includes driving any kind of vehicle. Ever. He was polite, friendly, and very, very nice. He even made jokes. Plus, it was the stressful holiday season, and the roads were unusually icy this day, and he made us all feel safe and happy. Not only was I pleased about his driving, but his warm personality bumped up my perception of mankind, which has been squashed over the years. Five big stars! Also, the seats on the bus were comfortable. I had some exhaust smells in one of my seats, but that was a minor issued compared to the overall experience.

Bellair Shuttles is not Covid compliant. They allow passengers to make up their own minds about wearing masks. On the shuttle I was on, the passengers refused and the company backed their behavior, refusing to adhere to state policy on mask wearing inside the bus. Even though their website says masks are required--they are not! UPDATE after owner response: There were 2 other people on my shuttle from 11-1:30am. They refused to wear masks. They said they "had been wearing them for the last 18 hours" and then that "they were eating" (they were not). Who knows what other dangerous behaviors these people engaged in on their travels? The driver refused to ask them to put on face coverings. The shuttles are small and there is no ventilation. Therefore, not Covid compliant. When I complained to the company, they said that "Because of the wide spectrum of opinions on COVID, which has been very uncharted waters for our company to negotiate, we will not put our drivers in a position to police a situation like you described. We respect that our guests are able to make their own decisions."---ie: they do not follow the governor's mandate and are actually backing the folks not wearing masks. (I'm very sure they would have been happy to "police" me if I had lit up a cigarette or engaged in my own dangerous behavior onboard). I had every right to expect fellow passengers to be masked as they state the governor's mandate on their website. If you care about people masking up to keep themselves and you safe, Bellair Airporter Shuttle is not the place.

I was the transportation coordinator for the Brothers In Arms Foundation who brought the 49 Marines from Camp Pendelton to Bellingham. Every single person from Bellair Charters was exceptional, both in their service and their compassion for our mission to honor Lance Corporal Jack-Ryan Ostrovsky. Before we had even completed the payment we were assured that a bus would be waiting at the airport. The bus was very comfortable, and the driver was so kind and professional, I wished he stood next to us at the services to see why he went to work that day and the good he was doing for others. I hope the employees get to read this, because I want them to know how much it meant to the family and the community to see those Marines arrive and honor that young Marine. Semper Fi
