So the last two times we went back to the airport,1st was via unknown van. I asked her to call a taxi and this came??,a unmarked van that charged me a flat 50 fee. The second time was a taxi sitting out front of the Hard rock,i think that was about 40.00. Two complaints,frist time the driver did not tell me untill we where half way there. Partly my fault I should of said something right away. Second time, the driver was on his phone the whole time, he pop the trunk we pull our own luggage out,no problem there but he was still on the phone!, i went around to pay he took the money,never even stop to say anything,matter of fact barley roll down his window to take the money(i bet you he would of paid more attention if we had just walk away?? just a thought). Big time bad custumer service!!. So Is there better way to get back to the airport?. I wish they had something like ME:confused3. When I get off the bus It feels like a perfect end to our vacation,in staead of feeling like I am someones burden.
 
I like Happy Limo. They are recommended by mousesavers.com which also offers a coupon if you book RT service. We've used them to get to PC many times. That's the difference between using a private transportation service and just grabbing a cab.

I find that usually (not always) that private car services are usually better/calmer drivers. Any time I get in a cab, I usually end up closing my eyes and praying to arrive safely. I don't get that feeling with private companies.
 
I feel bad to:sad2:, I drove a cab for a year it can be a tough job but these drivers seem not to care no more then your cash. I always gave my custumers frist priorty,because i know how i would feel if i was them. I like the idea of a private sevice,town car would be nice. It would only be a ow trip because we are useing ME to get to POP,then taxi to Hard rock,maybe i can see a deal if i use them to get to hard rock?.

Personally, I'd have them take me to HRH too.
 

It looks like It might cost about 40.00 extra,with tip from HRH. That might be worth it. If they can throw In a discounted rate going HRH from POP even better. I hate to over spend:scared1:,its one of my pet peevs,but safety and comfort might over ride that factor.
Real quick side story to the taxi rides at WDW. So couple years back I took a taxi to LBV golf course from POP,early In the Morining. So the driver starts out going through a complete red light:scared1:,not even slowing down,he says he did not see it:scared1: lucky enough no one was out on the road. Then he proceeds to get lost,twice goes down two dead end roads. At this point I was thinking I might not get there. He then asks me If I wanted to drive because he does not know how to drive that well!!, what!:scared1: I dont know my way around,but I might of done better then him thinking back on it. Ok at this point I tell him to drop me off anywhere,i will fegurie it out from there. He makes what he thinks is another wrog turn and ends up in fron t of the Gate. I was just bhappy to walk away.
