Needed to get to the airport for an 8 AM flight. When I booked they said they would pick us up at 5 AM. I was a little worried that they would show at that hour but they were there right on time. Driver was SUPER nice but a little "chatty" for me at that hour of the morning.

Slight was 3 hours late and what a puzzle to find the shuttle service
unfortunately, our flight was delayed over 3 hours and when it arrived at the terminal, there was no one at baggage claim from the shuttle service. We wandered around baggage claim and the terminal for a half hour looking for a shuttle sign, but found no visual directions to the shuttle service. We finally, not at all near where we landed, a nice shuttle service employee on a cart who gave us a ride to where there was a shuttle. I don'gt know the airport restrictions, but a sign inicating where the shuttle service could be found would have been helpful. Or a ap on the back of our ticket. We also asked a couple of airport employees, who gave us wrong information.

Abandoned and ignored
Horrific customer service. We were never given instructions for time or pick up location. You can’t call anyone for details. Ended up calling a cab. Bad experience #2 with this company. Won’t again!

DO NOT USE!!
VIP transport avoid like the plague!

We booked and paid ($25US) this company to take us to the airport 4 days in advance. When you book online you fill in your flight details and they suggest with international you be at the airport 3 hours earlier. All this information was filled in so they had all our details. Our flight time of 10:30am and a pickup of 7:45am.  8:00am and no bus. We called them only to find they thought our pick-up was 10:30am! After telling them how stupid they are not to read their own website and confirmation email they sent us, they advised another bus would be there “shortly". We waited another 15mins and caught a cab. We were now 30mins behind schedule, bearing in mind it's a week day and we had traffic against us.  They are not worth it. We also found out that if you catch a taxi from any hotel to the airport it's a flat rate of $27US + tax!! Take a taxi it's much easier.

No show but still charged my credit card-terrible customer service

Reserved a shuttle weeks in advance for a trip from the cruise port to the airport. The latest option available was noon so this is the time we chose. Our flight was not until mid afternoon, so we thought we would check our luggage at the pier and visit the local area for a few hours before heading to the airport. I decided to call VIP about 11:50 to ensure we meet them at the correct pick up location. They told me their pick up time at the pier was 9:00 am. I told them that I have a reservation to be picked up at noon. I am looking at a copy of my reservation with the noon pick up time as I write this review. The lady on the phone had no customer service skills. No admission of their mistake or sense of urgency to fix the problem. Around 12:15 2 VIP shuttles showed up. We were relieved at first. We approached them and they said they were not going to the airport and would not take us. I know we could have taken an expensive taxi but that would have been a last resort. Around 12:45 a different shuttle service pulled up to drop off a couple of passengers. I told the shuttle driver what was going on and asked if he was willing to take us to the airport. He was very gracious and took us to the airport. I wish I remembered the name of that service so that I could give them credit. To top it off, VIP charged me for the trip that they failed to show up for. Now I have to dispute the charge. They also had my cell phone number and certainly didn't call me at the time (9:00) they CLAIMED they were supposed to pick us up. I would never use this company again! We experienced great service everywhere during our trip to 4 different Hawaiian Islands with the exception of VIP travel. They certainly do not fit the Hawaiian culture (or the service industry in general)
