The difference with their new policy is regarding getting to/from SS, LSL, or the Brownwood terminal for the express service. All Villagers used to be able to pay an additional fee and get picked up/dropped off between their home and the terminal closest to their home. That service is now only available for residents north of 466 to/from the LSL terminal. The logic is that the northern residents are the furthest from the airport, and since the Villages has grown so big, those residents had to go on a seemingly endless ride through the entire Villages after getting picked up or before getting dropped off using the residential door to door service. Residents further south can still use the residential door to door service if they don’t have a ride to a terminal for the express service.
