What’s common in the U.S.

U.S. shuttle drivers — hotel, airport or otherwise — are commonly tipped $1–$2 per bag when they help with luggage; tipping is more discretionary when there's no luggage or assistance. Longer rides or especially helpful drivers can reasonably justify a higher amount.

What tippos suggests

tippos suggests entering how many bags the driver handled, then choosing what feels right for the ride you had.

Tipping is always your decision. These numbers are context, not a requirement, and no amount is ever preselected for you.
