Uber (taxis in general) back from waterparks
Hi, never taken a taxi anywhere in Florida so on a steep learning curve for our last minute trip without a car!
Obviously we will make sure we are dry before getting in a taxi coming back from a waterpark but just wondered what peoples experiences were? Would it be easier to just take non-swimwear to wear back to avoid any awkward conversations? It would be more stuff to lug about but if I need to I will. I just want to avoid any forseeable hassles. Or is the fact that you are dry OK to travel in swimwear. (I will have swwimwear covered by a matching beach dress thingy and my boys would be in swimshorts and a t shirt on top). thanks Thanks!

you’ll be fine with an extra light layer over the top of your swim wear eg shorts and t. If you’re booking Uber you can always add that as a message. They’ll probs only be bothered if you’re wet

Cheers for this
Am wondering now if it going to be harder getting ubers back from waterparks as they might be more reluctant to accept the job in CASE people are wet? I didn't realise you could add a message! Lots to learn!

I really would be careful as have seen multiple reports of people being charged cleaning fees coming back from waterparks even when they weren't wet! They have usually been able to get them refunded but it has made me a bit wary about using Uber for TL or BB.

Personally, being the prude I am I think travelling on public transportation in swimwear is unacceptable. Maybe you children are fine in trunks and a top, but as a mother, I would want to be properly covered. As my mother used to say "What if you get in an accident?"

Because they picked you up at a water park!
If in doubt take some dry wear, there’s lockers

If you are really concerned, change your clothes (sometimes dry on the outside is still wet underneath and can leave a damp spot). If you are wearing street clothes it would be harder form someone to accuse you of being damp.
