If you don't mind wasting about an hour and a half taking a tour of the Villages every time you use the service, I guess it is OK if you live in the northern sections.
I will vouch for this when we were living near Nancy Lopez near RT42, I was the first to be picked up and the last to be dropped off. For an 8 AM flight it was typical to be picked up at 2:30 to 3 AM, then it took an hour just to get to Brownwood, then to the turnpike. My best experience has been a private car to MCO then on the return Workmans Transportation back to be dropped off at LSL.
