Getting to IOA? taxi vs limo vs mears?

[snoopy5386]

We'll be in WDW with my mom and sister over President's Day weekend. Mom and Sis want to go to IOA for the day and I'm trying to figure out the best way for them to get there. They do NOT want to rent a car.....

So Mears? Is it $18 each way or roundtrip? Do they pick up at each resort, we'll be at POFQ. The biggest thing is they are not sure how long they'll be at IOA. They are mainly going for WWOHP but will probably stay longer to check out some other stuff too. A taxi seems easiest, just get one whenever. The cab will cost approx. $80-90, does that sound right? With Mears, can you just hop on a return shuttle at any time? With a limo you have to prearrange a time to get picked up correct?
Advice?

My dd and I did this last August. We booked Mears a day or so before we wanted to head to US/IoA. They asked what time we wanted to get to the park, told them opening and they gave us a pickup time...we arrived just as the park was opening.
For the return, we could either have booked it at the time we booked the ride over, or we were given the option of calling Mears from the park about 2 hrs before we were ready to leave and they would give us a p/u time. We choose this option. We called about 3:15, and were given a 4:15 time..worked beautifully.
It is $19 r/t pp...be sure to have cash unless you book and use a cc over the phone. If there were more than 2 people going, I would recommend a car service or cab..but for 2, it works pretty well. We will be doing it again in Dec..just my friend and I.

If you go with Mears, I'm pretty sure that the earliest you can return is 3:15 pm. Ask when you call to book.

Just like goofy4tink, My DH & I recently did this. We went on October 6, 2010 (from the BWV) and were very happy with Mears service.
