Question What's the best option?

Hey there guys,

My folks will be joining us in Orlando for 10 nights after their Miami cruise and stay. They're flying into MCO from Miami quite late in the evening so it's not ideal for us to go pick them up. I was just wondering what you guys would recommend as their best option for getting from MCO to the Rosen Inn International?

I should add that they're in their late 70's and aren't the best with technology ...if an Uber is best (I have no clue about Uber ) then is it easy enough for them to use if I set it up on my dad's phone for them?

Or would it be easier/safer for us to pre book a transfer...either bus/car?

All advice/help greatly appreciated, thanks!

I would say a cab or transfer would be the better option I wouldn’t want someone who not good with tec to use Uber.

Mmm, late 70's I wouldn't do an Uber.
I would also opt for a Mears cab.

I'm out here on the iPad so it's slow to search but if you Google Mears fare calculator you will find out what the cost will be.

Great, thank you so much! I think I’m gonna defo book them a pick up through Mears. Not decided whether a shared bus or a private car would be better yet? I’ll check out Viator too for deals first but I’m guessing it’s pretty obvious where they’ll need to go to get their driver though? Or do any of you happen to know if they wait in arrivals with a wee sign for them?...or is that just in the movies 😂
