Private transportation to and from Orlando International
 
Does anyone provide a service to take people to and from Orlando International Airport? Private Individuals as opposed to commercial basis?

Vinny's Car Service (Vinny Patterson), 352-205-6606

Jane Witte 352 406 3***. She has several drivers. We've been using them for 5 years. Very reliable. Edit: I see the powers that be won't let her phone number go through. She's in the TV phone book, maybe under Charles Witte, her late husband, who started the service. Otherwise, the last four numbers are three four three three.

Geeze.

any idea of ballpark price these folks charge?

All Area Car Service aka Don Ried. (352)-446-8986. Always on time and $30 (+ tip) to or from MCO .

Amazing that someone would do this for $30. It is a great deal.

I ponder if they just want to "get out of the house".

I will have to consider all of this for my next trip.

It's probably $30 per person. Our cost is $35 per person, but I do not know if that is the current rate, as we've used our service for so long. New customers may pay a different rate.

Worth it for us as we're usually taking very long flights and don't want the drive on either end. Also, we have sent them to pick up family members who were leaving/arriving at ungodly hours.

Ahhhh, I likely misread what OP was asking, I saw private and thought it was for a ride for one person.

$80 from MCO to our house plus tip.

Kirsten Lee 03-27-2017 07:58 PM

Don Ried provided a ride for 1 person last month. Cost was $40 and there was another individual in the vehicle.

These private car services normally charge per person, each way. If you want your wife to go, she will have to pay also. Tips are not appropriate if the driver is the owner/operator.

Uber is now in TV, so you can register and get a price from them.
