We are flying SW in September. We arrive at MCO at about 10:00 am. What kind of delays have been experienced? Any horror stories out there? I was plannning on using Tiffany Towncar, I really like there service but I like the price of ME more.

I would like to save the $$ but I don't want to spend 2 hrs at MCO.

Thanks,
 
We used ME for our trip 7/10-20. We landed at 9:50am ( flew Song) and were checking in at POR at 11:15am. Our luggage was delivered to our room at 12:30pm. I thought it worked great for us!
 
We used DME on June 18....arrived via Song at 11:50 a.m. We were on the bus at 12:15 and in the check-in line at BCV at about 1:05, sitting by the pool in our suits at 1:30!!! We got our room at 2:30 and our bags arrived at 3ish. Not bad IMHO!!
 
I was very impressed with the speedy service at the airport. I stepped off my plane at 2.50pm and was on the bus at 3.20pm. As a UK traveller I had to go through immigration and customs with my luggage too first. I was first through this line though which helped. Still, I was shocked at how fast it all was.

The bus left the airport at 3.40pm so it sat for around 20minutes waiting on other people. Total time from landing to bus leaving was 50 minutes for me. Would I use it again? YES.

Where have you heard horror stories of being stuck at MCO for 2 hours???

I used DME on May 8, its 4th day of operation, when you'd expect the kinks to not be worked out yet. From the time I got into the DME line until I was dropped off at CBR was 53 minutes. Under one hour from GETTING IN LINE AT THE COUNTER to being at my resort. There's no way you'd break that record waiting at baggage claim, taking a towncar and making a grocery stop (I got my groceries delivered, www.goodings.com, don't have to be present in room for delivery so don't need to schedule it or wait around for it!).

Thanks for the input, we've "booked" DME and look forward to using this service!
