Transportation for 9

[mamalocke]

So 9 of us are heading to Disney in just under 2 weeks. We are planning an offsite day at universal, but want to travel all together. Can anyone suggest the best way? Can uber or Lyft accommodate 9 at once?

If you aren't willing to split up, you'll have to find a private transportation company. Uber and Lyft don't have 9 passenger vans

Looks like Budget rents 12-passsenger vans for about $150 a day including "fees & taxes" but not insurance.

I second the recommendation for Tony Hinds. I think his vans might be 12 passenger even, but either way can accommodate 9. He charges a flat rate regardless of how many people there are. Not sure what the fare would be from WDW to Universal, but its usually around $60 to go to the airport, which is on par with other private car companies. He can give a quote via email too.

You are correct

Tony will use a 12 passenger vehicle with a behind luggage transport for large groups
But he has to be notified in advance as he rents it

Many credit cards rental coverage, and probably some personal auto policies, exclude 12 passenger vans from coverage. People planning on renting such a vehicle should obtain written confirmation from their credit card and/or personal policy to avoid the necessity of paying $$$$ for coverage from the rental agency.

I guess I will be contacting Tony Hinds. Thanks everyone!
