Transport from mco to portifino
We are unsure as to the best option for getting from the airport to portifino resort universal. Our first 3 nights are there before transferring to Disney’s yacht club.
Any advice Ubers seem in short supply. |

We've used Skippy transport return from the airport the last few times we have been.
We did ring to book, but there is also a website which you can book. There are 5 of us and a return in 2019 was 100 dollars. |

I actually think you should be fine with either Uber or Lyft. There always seem to be a lot of drivers around the MCO area.
If you are concerned, you could always use a company called Mears or, if you have booked through a TA, book a coach transfer?

If you are a family group, then the best option would in probability be Lyft, Uber or even Taxi. That service is literally concourse to Hotel Door, pretty immediate ate and has economy of scale over cost of individual tickets.
If a couple, then the sums will obviously be closer.

You can book in advance but I wouldn't with an airport run, as you have no idea whether the flight will be on time, how long immigration and baggage will take, etc. Actually, I don't think Uber allow scheduled airport pickups for exactly this reason.
All the scheduled ride feature does though is send the driver request automatically just before you want to be picked up. So it's no different to doing it yourself once you collect your bags. Edited at 06:27 PM. |
