Wag, We've used "Bob The Builder" a couple of times to either pick us up or drop us off. $40 using our car and nice to know that he'll be there on time with a pleasant smile and give us a safe ride with excellent service. Of course we've also used him for a zillion house projects in the past and couldn't ask for a more reasonable and responsible person. Hope this helps with your search.

P.S. I forgot his phone # 352-552-1275

Contact redwitch with a PM via this forum. She might have an interest in helping you with that.

If I could find a less expensive way to get from Orlando Airport to The Villages, I'd consider flying down more often. The flight both ways costs approx. $200 which is okay. But to lay out another $80 for transportation ($35 each way plus $5 tip) from airport is the deal breaker.

Tom, one way to cure that is just come & stay. You could get on David's schedule and ride with him...he flies in every 3 weeks.

Some think that renting a car is less expensive than paying per-person on the shuttle. Then you can turn the car in at LSL and probably get a ride to your home or the rental office will pick it up at your home. Not sure about that, but worth looking into.

redwitch is the user name for a person who is a member of TOTV - same as your user name is caseylou5 as a member of TOTV. Just send her a Private Message (PM) to see if she would have an interest in helping you with the transportation.
