You can try 2 cabs from BluSmart. Fare will be nearly comparable to 1 Shoffr.

The price difference is not so much that BluSmart costs just half. From my place to the airport, BlueSmart charges 13xx while the same in Shoffr is 15xx. Booking an Innova from a local travel agent would be better for 5 people IMO.

Maybe for longer distances, Shoffr is cheaper, as from my place, BluSmart is ~700, and Shoffr is ~1300.

OP, you can check exact fare acc to distance, and compare.

Unfortunately two of them are in their 80s so not a option. Although I did consider sending them in a cab along with luggage. Meanwhile others could come via BMTC. Thanks for your inputs

This seems like a good option with clearly indicated vehicle types. Thanks

Okay so after much consideration I think it will be cheaper, easier and more convenient to drive my own vehicle to the airport and park it over there. Calculating for 9 days of vacation, the cost comes to 3050. I think this would be cheaper than all the options. Thank you everyone.

Re: Bangalore: Shoffr airport cab service; an alternative to Ola/Uber

I used the service in March and April (Padmanabha Nagar -> KIA) to and from. An outstanding experience. Return journey was costlier by 10 Rs. Totally Paid 1,350 + 1,450 INR. I would use them again if required. Clean, nice electric cars, dressed up drivers, and a silent cabin. I think I also observed a 80 kmph speed governor. Just fantastic.
