I think you misunderstood CFrance's post. The Dave you are thinking about is alive and well as far as I know. We just used his service a week ago. Dave's Airport Transportation, 352-223-4696.

Village Airport Van is door to door $80 for two, one way, also a very good service when we have used it.
The only down is they drop off/pick up on route, that can add anothe 45-60 minutes to journey, so allow time if you are catching a flight.
Car hire is most time efficient.

I used them quite a few months back-very disappointed. First he came 1/2 hr early- which usually isnt a bad thing- but I was leaving for about 9mths-so I needed that extra few minutes to shut things down. Next as I was getting into the van, the driver wanted me to sit upfront...I told him no (I have a true issue riding with other drivers)...I told him- he still insisted, then I just climbed into the back...he took my bags,put them in then slammed the back and also slammed the side van door..to then screech away skweeling tires like a child... which made me and the other 2 riders very nervous.
...it was horrible.

I've always used the Village taxi.
They've been great!
I travel with a 60 lb dog, her kennel, 2 suitcases and a carry the from Lady Lake to MCO and back home from trip.

No. The Dave we use drove for Witte. Mr. Witte passed away, and his wife Jane took it over. But she apparently is not scheduling anymore, and Dave is out on his own. Sorry for the confusion.

My husband hadn't left the area so he came back and drove us (there were 3 of us impacted).

Will they pick up at MCO after midnight? My son’s flight arrives at 12:15am and he’d like to get a ride directly to our rental home. I think he can take Uber but was wondering if there is another option.

There is a new delivery service in The Villages Airport Shuttle Service - Groome Transportation - Book Online

Groome Transportation is a large national company now servicing The Villages to Orlando International. Their price is $19.00 per person and have 20 trips daily. My cousin uses them in Colorado and says they are great. I was told that all of the vans they are using here are new. Check out their website. It will be interesting to see how they work out here.

Are you asking about Village Airport Transportation? If so they will pick up late, or early. Some years ago my husband was delayed into the early hours of the morning due to flight problems from Europe and they kept in touch with me and picked him up when he finally arrived.
