It's a lot cheaper for me

$1.00 for bus ride on Blue Bus #3 or free if I bike. Can't divide by $0 so...

I have to connect from the 733, and that is not always well-timed with the Rapid 3. Unfortunately, the Rapid 3 is also not very punctual, especially if you have a late night flight.

Actually, after a bit more research I take it back. Round-trip SuperShuttle from my house is $68, and they pick up about 4 hours before departure. Assuming I'm willing to cut it slightly close (like arriving at the airport 40-60 minutes before departure), biking is both faster and less expensive. Parking would've been about $36, but gas and maintenance probably bump the total cost above $50.
