I recommend Janet and Yankee Trails.

He’s still there, waiting at the pier, surviving off of scraps of food given to him by disembarking passengers.

Thanks OP. That's why we'd rent a car (or park ours down there) and drive ourselves. The exposed guy should have done that - made 100% certain he didn't expose anyone else. No respectable company should operate the way that you described.
Plenty of people out there in denial or who just don't care about the health of others. Poor judgement on the part of the son and the transport co.

Just to bring anyone who is interested up to date, today I received a letter from Yankee Trails apologizing for the "less than enjoyable return trip from Fort Lauderdale".

I was informed that Janet is still employed, by them, and they enclosed a credit card for $50 for future use.

To date I have never had a reply from their head office.

We've been using Yankee Trails to book our cruises since they came to The Villages. Julie, as our travel agent has been wonderful. Had the 'free bus's' had issues, yes. Have we had problems driving our own car and parking in south Florida, yes?

Unless you want to pay a private limo from your house to port you will have issues.

We will continue to use Yankee Trails.

PS: IMO the drivers take a lot of heat and are not tipped properly by a lot of riders.

What is tipping a driver properly?
