midnight arrival

[dez1978]

What would be the best way to get from MCO to a disney springs hotel with a midnight arrival? It'll be just 2 of us, adults. We don't really have Uber or Lyft where we live and we've always done ME when going to Disney. I wasn't sure if Uber would be the best, safest bet at that time of night or if I should book a car service? Do car services even do pick ups over night?

Uber or Lyft should be fine, a taxi would be fine. Car services shouldn't be a problem since you schedule it in advance. Personally I would probably do Lyft. I get benefits due to one of my credit cards, and it's easy to hail once you're ready.

Could you just stay at the hotel at the airport?

just a tip from someone who has worked night audit at a hotel make sure that your reservation is for the day before and let the hotel know so that they don't no show you as many hotels will do their closeing after midnight. Aloso a hotels day starts at check in time as far as guest arivals are concened., midnight is not coincderd to be a new day as rooms could be ocupied when you arive.

Perfect. That's exactly what you should do. Also as a courtesy to the hotel let them know that you will be their after midnight, trust me we appreciate knowing if a guest is arriving late.
