Mears bus or car service?

[megrod74]

We have 3 kids under 6 - would you use the Mears bus or get a car service? how do car services handle the need for carseats?

You are going to run into trouble if you need three car seats. I doubt they will fit in a standard towncar. You may have to go with a van or a true limo. There is room for four usually....without any car seat. Three in back, one up front with the driver. But, as I said, you could book a van through one of the car services.
If you use the DME (Mears run), there is no need for car seats. Actually, you can't use them as there is nothing to attach them to on the bus. If it were me, I would just use DME. But, I'm usually happy with the service I get from DME.

Yes, I would book a van instead of a towncar. Unfortunately I can't use DME because we are staying at the Swan for the first part of the trip.
Thanks!

We only have one kid but just decided this weekend to book a van service. Due to our late evening arrival time, I wanted to collect my own bags instead of using DME's luggage service. So the idea of collecting our bags and hauling them plus a toddler all over MCO, then facing a potential wait and bus ride with multiple stops was not appealing. Looking forward to the driver holding the sign with our name on it!!!

Ooops, sorry. I've used the Mears shuttle to the S/D in the past. And it was fine. BUT...with your size group, you may find a van from a car service to be a better bet.
