I lived in west Orlando for over 10 years starting in 2012 and we travelled extensively out of KMCO. Probably 8-10 times per year.
After several experiments (including UBER) I use The Parking Spot all the time. I timed it one morning and from when I exited off he 408E onto Semoran Blvd northbound and then returned on the Parking Spot shuttle was less than 15 minutes. They are REALLY quick getting you to the airport. Rarely a wait for a shuttle of more than 5 minutes--they often follow you to the spot. I wait 0-15 minutes for the shuttle to go back to parking when I get back to Orlando.
They have a "Frequent Parker" program that give you points for each stay and rewards for free parking. No charge for cancellations. You can tip the drivers via credit card (scan the QR code on the bus). Be warned--they do not take cash at the parking area--you MUST use their app to pay. Easy to exit; just scan the app at the exit kiosk. Not an issue for me and I was automatically emailed receipt for expenses.
What really sold me on The Parking Spot" were the several mornings I arrived at MCO (on the shuttle) and as we arrive at Terminal A I saw the terminal parking garages were all full. I had a reserved space at The Parking Spot so it was not a problem--glad I had a reservation. Nightmare averted.
I do not even bother shopping around now. I *think* they have surge pricing. Off-season it may be less than $12 per day and then as much as $18 per day during the holiday rush weeks.
If we park--here where we go...
