Uber reliability for an 8am res at the Poly

[TeamEvansGo]

Hoping to take an Uber Family (need the car seat) from Pop to the Poly for an 8am Kona Cafe reservation. Wondering if I might run into a problem finding a car with a car seat that early or if they are pretty common these days. Thanks!

Uber gives you an estimated time.. start looking at 7 in the morning and see what it comes back with... but remember when you request the car you need to be at the location where they will pick you up as those are the coordinates that get sent to the driver.

Uber will be available. There is quite a few drivers hanging around property that early.

If you can't get an Uber driver in a timely manner, there are taxis always ready and waiting for fares.

I'm sure Uber will be available, but I don't know about the car seat. Car seat availability seems to vary. If you can't get an UberX with car seat, you can try an UberXL, or wait a few minutes and try again, or get a taxi with a car seat.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Uber is now offering pre-scheduled rides in Orlando now. The feature has been rolling out across the country -- it's been available here in New York for a while -- and I'm pretty sure it has moved south. If that's the case, you can simply arrange for the pickup the night before, which should allay any of your concerns.

Regardless, you should have absolutely no issue procuring an Uber at that time. They are readily available. I'd just start checking 10 or 15 minutes before you want to be picked up, just to be sure.

OP, have you already taken this trip? I'm wondering about a similar concern. We have never used uber family, but it will be simpler than checking a car seat and renting a car for one day!
