SDM Transportation

11/04/2026

I hope that November is off to a good start. We have had a couple of cooler, nicer days. So far for 2026, SDM Transportation has 371 reservations. I was quite surprised when I did the totals last month commemorating my actual 20 years of operating SDM Transportation. I am going to try to keep those stats updated in each newsletter. I know that there are a few of you who like the stats when I post. Since opening on Sept. 5th, 2006, SDM Transportation has managed 8,863 reservations, driven 842,819 miles. Thank you to each and every one of you for your support, patronage and helping spread the word for the last 20 years about me and SDM Transportation.





With the holidays approaching, now is the time to start asking about availability for your holiday travel plans in November, December, and January. My transportation hours are evenings, overnights, early mornings, weekends, and some major holidays. It is also never too early to start asking about 2027 travel dates. I already have about ten reservations booked into 2027. Remember, you can book in advance, and no payment is required until the day of travel on the first leg of your trip.





I have added a new AI assistant, his name is Leo. He's going to take good care of you while you give him your reservation information. Leo's going to take all your information and put it the format I use, and send it to me for final approval. I'll enter it and send your confirmation out at the end of the day when I get off work. Leo is just there to make sure he gets your information so that this is efficient and quick, and so that there's someone able to answer the phone while I'm at work during the day or driving, and you don't have to wait for me to call you back.





Please review your confirmations when you receive them, as they provide detailed information about the pickup/drop-off process and how to make payments.





In 2026, I will NOT be running shuttle service on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.



Please do not use third-party messaging platforms to request reservations. I rarely check Facebook, Nextdoor, or Yelp, so I may not see messages there for several days or longer, and requests sent there may be missed. I also do not take reservations by text because there is too much information to collect. To book, please use the phone number and/or business email listed below.

I hope that October is off to a good start. We have had a couple of cooler, nicer days and now it seems like summer is still trying to hang on for one last push. So far for 2026, SDM Transportation has managed 356 reservations. I was quite surprised when I did the totals last month commemorating my actual 20 years of operating SDM Transportation.

In last month’s newsletter, I said I was excited for September as we should be getting cooler, boy, so far, I’ve been really wrong. I am definitely not a fan of what we’ve had so far. Last month I also mentioned that over the last two years, SDM Transportation has seen a bit of a decline in rides and revenue due to the world we are in and the economy. Since Sept. 5th, 2026, is my actual 20th year as SDM Transportation. I wanted to give you a few statistics. So far for 2026, SDM Transportation has managed 307 reservations. Since opening on Sept. 5th, 2006, SDM Transportation has handled 8793 reservations, driven 835,335 miles, went from car #18, a 2006 Ford Focus ST to today being on car #48, a 2023 Tesla Model Y. Thank you to everyone who receives this, who currently rides, has ridden, or has recommended me to people you know. I could not have done it without each and every one of you over the last 20 years.

If you need back-to-school, last-minute vacation, or business travel, please keep SDM Transportation in mind. I have provided airport shuttle and private charter services to Lawrence and the surrounding communities since September 2006. Whether you are planning a night out, attending a concert, or going to another special event where you dodo not want to drive, SDM Transportation can help. Evening service starts at $150. As always, my transportation focus is evenings, overnights, early mornings, weekends, and some major holidays.

Please review your confirmations when you receive them as they provide detailed information about the pickup/dropoff process and how to manage payments.

Always leave a voicemail message as I am often driving at my full time job and/or unavailable to always answer the phone but will get back to you one way or other within a couple hours.

In 2026, I will NOT be running shuttle service on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

I hope that everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July. I know that I had one of the best times of my life being able to visit family in Oklahoma over this last weekend. As summer continues on and the heat cranks up, so far, SDM Transportation has handled 229 reservations. I appreciate the support and faith that everyone has put into my and SDM Transportation for the last 20 years now. It’s hard to believe that I started SDM Transportation in September 2006. I’m currently on car #50, the 2023 Tesla Model Y which I’ve had for a year as of Aug. 6th, 2026 and now put 44,000 miles on.

When you receive your confirmation emails, please review them carefully, as they contain all the information you need about the pickup process to and from the airport. Please also check them for accuracy in case I’ve made a mistake. If you receive any flight change information related to your departure from or arrival into Kansas City, please let me know as soon as possible. Lately, airlines have been making many last-minute changes. I want us all to stay on the same page with flight information and timing, because pickups and drop-offs run much more efficiently when we all know exactly what’s going on.

In 2026, I will NOT be running shuttle service on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

Please don’t use 3rd-party messenger programs to request a reservation. I seldom check messages on Facebook, Nextdoor, Yelp, and similar platforms, and I may not see them for several days or more. If you leave a message there, it may unfortunately be overlooked. For reservations, please always use my phone number and/or business email below. Please also note that I don’t make reservations by text, as there is too much information I need to collect and keep when booking a reservation.

Please always leave a voicemail if I can’t answer my phone, as I’m driving for other customers or working at my full-time day job. While I may see a list of missed calls, with all the spam and junk calls out there, I only return calls from people who leave a message about airport shuttle service. I also often text those people back with the basics and instructions for emailing their reservation details.

All shuttles are private car services and are not shared. SDM Transportation provides shuttle service in the early mornings, evenings, overnights, weekends, and on some holidays. Advanced reservations are required with at least 24 hours’ notice, based on availability. Because I also work a full-time day job, I am not available for shuttles between 7:30am and 4:30pm, Monday through Friday. Weekday shuttle departures must leave no later than 5:00am. In general, on weekday evenings, it is 5:30pm before I can get to the airport to pick someone up, or 4:45pm to pick someone up in Lawrence and take them to the airport. I also require that multiple people who are part of the same reservation be picked up and dropped off at the same location.

Thank you to each of you for your continued patronage and support over the last 19 years. September 2026 will mark the 20th year for SDM Transportation. Please keep SDM Transportation in mind when you need airport shuttle service, and please pass along my name, number, and email to anyone else who may be looking for these services. Thank you all for a great 2025, and I look forward to a busy 2026.
