Quicksilver Airport Shuttle

I forgot to write my review about this shuttle service from a trip I took in March I just remembered about it when I recently started looking again at other shuttle places. I selected this place because the price was the lowest I could find at the time and everything seemed good I even received my confirmation call saying the driver would be there the next morning at 4:20a.m. Well the driver did not show up until 5:15a.m. which left me in a panic due to my flight leaving the airport at 6:30a.m. the driver did call stating he was lost with the actual pick up location and eventually found my location, but I feel I should at least receive a call sooner than 5:15a.m. saying I’m lost, I even called the business line 3 times prior to driver showing up and went to an office voicemail which didn’t make sense to me because this place is suppose to be ²⁴⁄₇ I was told. I made it just in time for my flight thankfully, my only complaint about the service I received when I was arriving back from my trip is that I did not received a confirmation call this time and had to call the shuttle service and ask if they still had me down for airport pickup, and once I was picked up the van I rode in reeked of cigarettes, both drivers were nice so I can’t say if its their fault or the companies… I most likely will not use them again unless I’m desperate and out of options!

We had a great experience with Quick Silver: arrived ahead of schedule, called to confirm the night before, and told me that I could cancel up to four hours before.
Our driver was so nice, I wish I knew his name but getting up at 3 am for a flight has my mind a little foggy. He was born in India, lived in England during the 60’s, worked in NYC and was driving as a retirement job.
While we weren’t even close to late, he definitely could put the pedal down if you’re worried about being late.
Would definitely go with this company again, and the price was as good as any others if not better.

Had a great experience with Quicksilver Airport Shuttle. I was in Lawrence for a conference and my hotel recommended them. Couldn’t find many reviews for some of the shuttle companies so decided to try this one out since they were recommended.
No issues what so ever! I made the reservation the day before over the phone and it was $ 46 for a shared van. They showed up right on time (early in fact) to pick me up. The van was comfortable. There were only three of us in the van. If I am ever in Lawrence again and need a shuttle to the airport, I’ll be using Quicksilver.

The heater in this van is stuck on maximum:
Which means that on a warm day, you get BBQed on your way to the airport.
The guy was 15 minutes late, but called my on my cell phone before hand to let me know, which is nice.
But he appeared to be doing OJT (on the job training): he was unfamiliar with the hotels in the area, had to call in for directions, and briefly drove the wrong way down a one way street pulling out of the Marriott.
If you reserve online, you get redirected to the economyshuttle web site: it’s the booking system for Quicksilver.

On my latest trip down to Brazil I used Go Quicksilver to and from the airport from Johnson County (near the KU Edwards campus). They were prompt. In fact, they caught me in a frenzy of last-​minute packing (this is the embarrassing cost of procrastination). The driver was very patient about waiting for me to finish and then helped me with my heavy bags without my having to ask.
On the return I had less baggage (the big bags were full of stuff for friends in Brazil) and, as promised, the driver was waiting for me at the exit from the gate with a sign. Again, he was very pleasant and helped with my remaining bag when it came up on the carousel.
By booking online I was able to get 10% off with a winter special offer on the site.
As long as they’re easy to use, reasonably priced, and reliable, I’ll continue using Go Quicksilver!

Used their service to and from MCI from our residence. About $ 100 roundtrip. No problems except that they called and asked to pick us up an hour early since there were other passengers with earlier schedules. They did give us 24 hours notice!
We would certainly use their service again!

Never again — especially not from the airport to the house. Had to sit in the van with three ladies who’d landed at another terminal and had already been waiting for me for 10 –15 minutes, then we all waited 25 minutes more for the fifth passenger, from a third airline. All so they could collect five $ 35 fares to Corinth (not incuding tip). There has to be a better way!

Not sure if I’m being hasty with these five stars due to my recent horrific experience with Super Shuttle, so maybe I’ve just overjoyed and must share my recent extremely positive experience.
Ever get the feeling that a place might read their competitor’s (constructive) negative reviews and then with that in mind, strive to do whatever it takes to make their own business better? Probably not likely in this case, but I could have sworn the Go Quick Silver folks read my one star Super Shuttle review and then planned my experience accordingly.
Let’s start off with the fact that the driver not only parked in front of my house, as opposed to around the corner, but he *got out of the van and knocked on my door*. Believe it.
Then, brace yourself for this one, he *asked me if I had a piece of luggage that I needed him to bring down to the van for me.*
I am not kidding!
You know, I had gotten used to Super Shuttle’s weird practice of first parking around the corner rather than in front of my house (still can’t fathom a guess as to why, but let’s go with the fact that my street seems busy. This doesn’t stop all other trucks and vans from parking in front of houses, by the way. Just Super Shuttle). Sure, they all, with the exception of the last driver, would pull up in front of the house when I went to the corner and asked them to, but why should I have to do that?
Back to Go Quicksilver, though. Not only was the driver friendly and courteous, but he made sure the temperature of the van was adequate for me and the other passenger in the car. He took a route that got us to the airport in a much shorter time and he was pleasant the entire time. There’s this weird thing some drivers do where they force conversation and seem oblivious to the fact that sometimes a passenger has a lot on their mind when getting to an airport, so they don’t wish to make small talk. This guy was just perfect, so much so, I just got up to retrieve the receipt and find out his name, only it’s not on the receipt. In case they are reading, this ride took place on Tuesday, 1/​25, 12:45, Plaza area to MCI.
I should also mention that Go Quick Silver is cheaper than Super Shuttle.
As I tend to need airport shuttles quite often, I’ll be sure and report back if there are any new developments. In the meantime, you can trust.

I’ve used Quick Silver a couple of times on my last three business trips to the KC area, twice to Overland Park and once downtown. One way prices were the same to either the downtown or OP destination, right around $ 40. Reservations can be made on line and drivers accept either cash or credit.
I would give them five stars since my flight last summer arrived an hour late and the shuttle driver waited around for me (even with two other passengers). However, on my most recent trip I was the one who waited for an hour, even after calling the office and being assured a van was on the way. The one that did arrive was dirty and looked like the driver’s personal car.
They are much more consistent with pick ups. They have always been on time and the drivers have always been courteous.
Recommended.
