Mobile No car, best option

Hi we will not be hiring a car for the first time this year and was wondering what’s the best/cheapest option to get from MCO to international drive. Thanks

Personally, I’d get an Uber.

Thank you. I have never used Uber before how much does it cost and will they pick you up from the airport?

You’d have to go and find them yourself outside in the ground transportation area I think. If you’re looking for more of a ‘car chauffeur service’ then I’d recommend Quicksilver who advertise on here. There would be quite a difference in price though. Uber is prob about $35 to International Drive.

We've used both Uber & Lyft and found out it was cheaper for us to use them for our trip than hiring a car.

We got an Uber from the airport to Rosen Pointe on International Drive which cost us $24. Picked us up outside the ground transportation area and was very easy to find the driver.

If you download the Uber app, you can price up how much it will cost you

I remember seeing signs to the Uber/Lyft pick up area at MCO a few weeks ago.

You can check prices in advance on the app by changing the pick up location. I tend to think about what time I'll be needing the car and then do a price check accounting for the time difference.

yes we got an uber in December.

when you come out of the airport baggage claim. head for ground transportation/taxi.

looks for ride share or ride share pick up. in December they were at either end of the platform as you walk out the doors, i think there are posters advising which letter stand to look for but they are at the very end.

really simple if you know what your doing. if its your first time i would deffo ask for some help off a friend or someone in the ride share area. try to use it in your home town to figure out how to book a ride etc etc.
