Find the Shuttle Wave on Which the Last Party Member Fits

A queue can put one family member on the next shuttle and another on the following one. Count positions through the last party member before describing a rental-car transfer as one short wait.

1 · Queue option | people ahead | party size | usable seats per departure | minutes until next departure

HYPOTHESIS / PROTOTYPE — checkout unavailable. Calculation is local. A draft is saved automatically in this browser profile when storage is available; Reset to sample clears it. Optional Pro history stores only five summaries and has its own deletion control. State links encode your inputs and can remain in browser history, clipboard or recipients’ records; share only non-sensitive rows. Optional external AI formatting leaves this device. The required site analytics beacon reports page activity; shared URLs contain encoded inputs. Do not treat an encoded URL as private. The calculator has no input-collection endpoint.

Data note: The boarding-wave docket processes Queue option | people ahead | party size | usable seats per departure | minutes until next departure locally. Starter/sample selection and Run compute in this tab; no input is sent by the calculator. A local draft may be saved; explicit state-link sharing or optional external AI formatting can disclose inputs. Use non-sensitive labels.

Perspective: Before: the next shuttle's countdown stood in for the whole party. After: first and last positions expose capacity waves and any split-party assumption.

FIFO boarding scenario only, not a live timetable, accessible-seat assessment or connection guarantee. Ask shuttle staff to confirm usable seats, party-together rules and accessibility arrangements before relying on a modeled wave.

HYPOTHESIS / PROTOTYPE: $4 is a proposed one-time price for filing the boarding-wave docket, not a current sales offer. No measured time saving or buyer demand is claimed. The optional manual-retyping baseline above estimates one export’s retyping budget only; it does not change the calculation or guarantee savings.

Before using the boarding-wave docket

Assume a first-in-first-out queue, identical usable seat counts on every departure, no new priority boarding, and party members allowed to board in separate waves. If the operator keeps parties together, reserves seats, changes vehicles or requires particular accessibility space, this model is not the actual queue rule. Usable seats are the seats available to this queue after those constraints, not the vehicle's brochure capacity. The next-departure wait is measured from the same observation time as people ahead. Headway means time between departure opportunities, not journey duration. Alternative queue options are evaluated separately; their waits are not added. The calculator does not know live service status or guarantee a boarding time.

Boundary and sources

Method: The first party position is people-ahead plus one; the last is people-ahead plus party-size. Their waves are the upward-rounded positions divided by seats. Wait for wave w is next-wait plus (w-1) times headway. Compare first and last waves to reveal a split. The summary uses the largest alternative last-member wait, with each option still visible.
All sample records, dates, quantities and labels are invented. No outside policy, contract, rate, clock offset, measurement or accessibility standard is represented as verified.
Google’s official pricing documentation, fetched 2026-10-01, says AI Studio is free in available regions. Optional formatting may require a Google account; manual local entry requires none. Limits can change and free-tier content may be used to improve products. Do not send private records.

Optional AI formatting, never the calculation

Manual entry completes this boarding-wave docket for free without signup. If available to you, the free AI Studio interface linked in the sources may format fictional or non-sensitive notes; external access may require an account. No API key or AI call is built into this tool. Free-tier content may be used to improve products. Review each cell and transcribe it to the labeled row schema; do not paste the JSON object into the row box.

Format only these fictional or non-sensitive notes for a boarding-wave docket. Return strict JSON shaped as {"rows": [{"label": "string", "cells": ["string", "string", "string", "string"]}], "setting": "string"}. The columns are Queue option | people ahead | party size | usable seats per departure | minutes until next departure; the setting is Assumed departure headway (minutes). Keep all supplied strings and quantities exactly; do not calculate, infer missing entries, invent dates or add advice. If any required value is missing, return an empty rows array and ask me for it separately. I will verify every cell against my source and manually transcribe rows using vertical bars before running the local calculator.

An AI response is not executed, fetched or trusted as a result. Missing values remain questions; the strict local parser checks the rows you actually enter.
