Oh, do let us know when you find out Tom. We were hoping to use Uber for our trip the end of June but then heard it's only Uber black at the airport at the moment.

This would be good timing for our trip if Uber can use MCO.
Hope you are enjoying your holiday ☺

Would the OP really want to use a service bus after a 9 or 10 hour flight ? I'd certainally pay the extra for an Uber or Taxi .
I see you also say to avoid peak times, but as most flights arrive mid/late afternoon is that not a peak time? So you'd then advocate waiting in the airport until quieter?

The OP asked for the cheapest and reliable. He/she was just given an additional option. I must admit that I wouldn't use it, if I couldn't hire a car I wouldn't go.

i thought that this was a discussion forum? If someone was going first time they may well think the service bus is for them . I was adding my take on it with over 25 years of Florida travel.
I stand by my original comments.

Good on you. Would you do it with better half, two kids, 4 cases and two carry on bags?
Out of interest how many stops does the bus take, or is it an Express one? Oh and how long is the trip?

Hey that's good, much better than I would have thought. It could be a good save for those on a tight budget, but not for me personally. I can see what you mean now dskills

We done it as a family so 4 large cases. All I know is we saved best part of $100 on taxis which to me is much better spent on new clothes or eating out and took about 50 mins with only major stop. If your looking for cheapest and don't mind the slightly extended trip then this is the one. Althou I will be driving next time if I can brave the roads
