I still tip van drivers mainly out of habit. But ever since about 2017, most chain hotels pay van drivers hourly rates above minimum wage. In CA, van drivers get paid about $16/hr. That's not much, but it's not the same as the $2.13/hr server wage in the U.S.. Skyhop does 90% of our domestic service and they pay $18/hr. Our $2-6 tips to drive us 30 minutes to our 14 hour overnight is not the breaking point of whether this job is worth their time. If some random FO skips out on the tip, they won't even notice.
