I think it's tough because I make less than these shuttle drivers do I'm sure, yet I feel cheap if I don't give them a buck each and every time they pick me up and drop me off. Yet no one tips me for getting them to their destination. I know I'm a professional though, so I shouldn't get tipped, I'm just curious to see what my fellow pilots think about this issue.
T.I.P.S. = To Insure Proper Service. I usually tip $1 per trip, but I've heard the standard is $1 per bag. Then again, if they dont load my bags, or if they throw my belongs around, I dont give them anything. Just my 2c
