How early will Mears pick you up??

[klacey1]

I'm planning way in advance for our next trip, but I was just curious-- we're staying onsite at Disney but will want to take the Mears shuttle for a day at US/IOA. What is the earliest time you can arrange for them to pick you up? We're anticipating large-ish crowds at WWoHP and know it will take about a half hour to get from POR to US-- so we'd like to leave an hour and a half before IOA opens (I.e. 7:30 if the park opens at 9, which it probably will). Will they pick us up that early? TIA!

Mears runs a 24 hour operation for their sedans. I'm not familiar what shuttle service they provide to Universal but if it is a standard shared van I would imagine that runs 24 hours as well. They may drop you off and continue onwards to MCO with other passengers.

Actually, the shuttle service to Universal does have set times for each resort, but it is on reservation. I have taken it a few times and recall some early pickup times. I was first in line at the entrance booth. So just ask what their times are for your resort and choose the earliest one.

We did that last week....Mears told us 7:25 was the earliest time available. I believe that is the first run of the day. It got us to US/IoA by 8:10. We checked into RPR, and made it to IoA by 8:40, in time for early entry for about 15 mins.

That's about what I want. Sounds good-- thanks, everyone!

Remember to give them a call the day before you want to use them.
