Mears shuttle ??

We used Mears 2 times in the last year, and were happy with their service. We even changed our pick up point at the last minute, and had no problem with that. We were always in a small van, not a bus, so only able to stop at one or two other hotels. Actually, we enjoyed seeing the area, and judging the other hotels!
 
We have had good luck with Tiffany Limo but not so good luck with Happy limo (they showed up with a van, then required my kids to walk to the Hospitality House for pickup).
 
The first time I was there....we used Mears Shuttle. YUCK! 2 hours to get from the airport to POR. The bus was hot and crowded and the driver had his hand out for a tip when we got off.

This year we used Happy Limo, the ride great....when they finally showed up...I had to call them 3 times to find out where their driver was. But the car was great and the driver was a real kick.:p . But she was running so far behind on runs that were too close together, we never got our 1/2 stop in a store.

Next year... we will use Tiffany Towncar.
 
I used Mears when it was part of a National PTA convention package. It was awful. We were staying at the Swan/Dolphin, but the bus had to stop at the moderate resorts for pickups as well. It took forever to get to the airport.:(

We love the towncar services, particularly http://www.fltours.com/

Always be sure to request the 30 minute grocery stop when you book your trip. They need to know in advance. :D
 

I have used Mears in the past. They fill up a van with folks from hotels near each other and if you are at the last hotel it takes awhile. They do fill all the seats. So it is crowded and if you get a van full of folks like me a big large. Ouch. Going back to the airport they usually use a bus. They do pick you up real early. We are trying a towncar in Dec. We are using FLtours a DIS supporter. If the extra money is not much of a big deal. $50 is a meal for 2 at a sit down resteraunt at WDW. I would suggest the towncar with a grocery stop. They can save a bunch that way. Good luck.
 
Dont totally give up on the idea of using a towncar service. We have used Florida Towncars twice and both times it was great! The cost is around $80-$85 ROUNDTRIP. Mears and taxis will cost around $25 per person each way. Im a dumb ol country boy but my math shows that to be a $20 savings for 2 people. Tiffany Towncars also offers a $10 off w/coupon roundtrip. You have someone waiting there for you when you arrive and you dont have to stop at everybody else's place first. The drivers are all very friendly as well. Give one of these a try, you wont be sorry.
 
I agree the Towncar service is much nicer but Mears is not $25.00 per person each way it is $25.00 per person ROUND TRIP.
