When Workman changed their name, they announced that's all they did. Their parent company was Workman, and the Villages Transportation was an arm of that company. But at some point they realized, that people who use the Villages Transportation don't notice that the company offers much more than just van service to the airport. So they ditched the Villages Transportation name, and ported everything over to the parent name of Workmans.

Whether that's true or not, I can't say. But that was how they explained it. No one bought anyone out. Villages Transportation has always been an arm of Workmans, and now their name reflects that.

As such, they absolutely can drop you off and pick you up from home - because Workmans Transportation offers more than just airport service from 2 spots in the Villages. You have to schedule it in advance and pay extra. They do other types of transport service as well. They offer day-trips and multi-day trips to places like Biloxi Mississippi, the Smoky Mountains, lunch and a show in Tampa, etc. etc.

We've used Workmans/Villages Transport exclusively but we've heard very good things about Groome.

Or book private transportation such as Creative Concierge

Why not drive and use long-term parking at the airport. Is it a matter of cost or is this just a discussion of alternative forms of transport?

At extra charge.

A good van type service door to door nice clean vans , as with all home pickup vans , some folks just can’t get their act together to be ready when scheduled pickup, we have used both Groomes and airport taxi ,neither is the best choice . Spend the extra money and hire a car service .

Airport Transportation
 

I used Groome earlier this month and had a great experience. I will use then again. I wish the airport companies that pick up at home would specialize in areas, i.e. north of 466 or south. For just two people traveling together, it makes sense to hire a taxi, but for those of us solo travelers, it is pricey. Wish there were a web site where people traveling solo can pair up with those traveling at the same approximate time. As others commented, since I live north of 466, it is terrible to do the milk run with the other airport vans.

Workmen denied us taxi pickup from our home as they did not have enough drivers, hence we cancelled their service. We found Creative Concierge and now use them exclusively.

1]I used Groome one time, about 3 months ago. The experience was a good one. I will use them again.[/QUOTE]
I used them in April and will be using them in June.

Used Capri, great service $90.00 for 2 each way $70.00 for one. Courteous, on time and great drivers. Highly recommend them.

Good commentaires. Is anyone grateful that there are van services for all the "important" people in TV? Regardless of the inconveniences my take is a big THANK YOU!

Yep. I paid a $50 flat rate fee door to door.

Amazing services

We use Dave's Transportation.
Great drivers and cars! On time and spotless cars!

Groome last week Anazing
 

Groome was Amazing - picked up at airport A / 42 early and left early... and arrived at door... looking forward to doing again for pickup at my door and pickup at airport ;)

We recently used Groome and the service was great. They picked us up at our door and delivered us to the proper terminal. We were aware that it was a shared ride service and we were picked up within the time window that they told us at the reservation. The driver was extremely professional and I highly recommend Groome.
