Barefoot and others:
Agree that it is confusing.
The Villages Shuttle appears to now be calling itself The Villages Transportation according to a new flier I picked up and there've been small ads in
The Daily Sun. See TheVillagesTransportation.net.
I am not 100% sure that this service is owned by TV any longer.
And, it's true that they are now offering, for an extra $5 each way, taxi pick-up/drop-off at your home. That's got to be to compete with the Orlando-based van service.
When I booked my late evening return next month, I was told that if I return after 9:00 pm or so, the shuttle vehicle may well bring me home instead of a taxi.
Many of my trips are, of course, cruises, so I use Cruise Connection to get to Fort Lauderdale. Sometimes, when I fly from Orlando I drive. But, even at $10 a day, that adds up. So, I'll be looking at The Villages Transportation again in the future.
One major reason: My gut tells me that their vehicles are a h*** of a lot more comfortable than the vans.
Hope you'll be back in TV before snow flies!
