GIG Rio Airport Transfer
Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere. For various reasons, I am travelling to EZE via a quite joyful Avios routing that gives me a night in Rio.
I am staying at Cocopacabana, having not quite appreciated when I booked the likely airport transfer cost. We have a significant amount of luggage (6-8 cases all told).
What is the best way of doing the Transfer with a nice balance of cost and comfort? Uber Black is showing 80 BRL (13/14 USD). Will that be suitable for 2 people and that number of cases?
The online radio car and private transfer services is showing fares of 100-160 USD so quite a difference.
Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Uber Black won't work. You will get a smallish vehicle that might accept 2-3 bags. Many vehicles in Brasil use natural gas which means a large tank will take up about 1/3 of the carge space.
You'll need to pay up or store it.
