Skyy Limousine feedback

[Gracie'sMom]

Does anyone have any experience with Skyy Limousine Service? We have booked pick-up service with them from MCO to the resort for our trip in September. Dh wanted to get a hummer limo for the fun of it to get our vacation off with a kick and after the feedback I had seen for Happy Limo I refused to book with them! There were a couple of other companies that provided the Hummer but their rates and extra fees were a bit more pricey than Skyy. I did check the Orlando BBB website and there were no complaints listed there so I'm hoping I booked with a reliable company. Does anyone know anything about them?

We used Skyy Limo back in Jan 2005 for transportation from MCO to Port Canaveral. We were a group of 20 and used one of the buses. The service was great. Hopefully you can find someone with a more recent experience.

Thank you for the feedback regardless of how long ago it was! We have never used a limo before so this is a big splurge for us and I want it to go well. My husband says it's for the 3 kids in our party but he's actually the biggest kid of all and a simple limousine won't do!! NOOO...he has to have the hummer!! No jokes please...the booking agent already got that one! Actually once I got off the phone I realized what I had said and what he said in response!!

I was wondering the same thing about Skyy being a reliable service. We are booked for the Charger in December. I now feel a little better about the decision. I too checked out the BBB!!! Have a great trip!

I've been thinking about booking a limo because DS would LOVE to ride in one so just for the fun of it. I went the their website but it doesn't give prices. They have transfer rates and then hourly rates. What's the difference. Also, will they pick you up at baggage claim like the town car service, and does the price include a grocery stop? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Hollie,

My simple understanding of the terminology is that a "transfer" is simply taking you from one location to the other. In our case that will be taking us from the airport to our resort (their email confirmation reflects that they have alotted one hour for this). The "hourly rate" typically requires a multiple hour block of service. My vision of this is something like prom night usage, a wedding or a bachelor(ette) party where there will be more than one stop.

I was told that the driver will meet us at the baggage claim area with a sign bearing our name . He will assist us with luggage, I wouldn't expect him to handle everything himself anyway. I didn't ask about a grocery stop when I booked as we will be renting a minivan for the week and will make the obligatory grocery run later that first night after the parks close! You may just want to call them directly with that question and any others you might have. I have spoken with both Stuart and Stephanie from there and they both were very friendly and professional (Stuart is the jokster!). I felt that the rates were comprable to the other limo providers without all the fine print and hoops to jump through. What I liked best about Skyy though is that they don't pre-charge a deposit on your credit card and they don't include the gratuity in the price (leaving me to tip what I think their service was worth).

I hope this helps you!

****We will be at WDW from 9/8 to 9/16. I will try to remember to post a mini-review on this thread once we return.

Man, their website is a pain. I click on the limo I want and I have to call for the transfer price. I hate that, I dont have the time or the patience for that.
