I don't understand why Mears Transportation are getting so many bad reviews. I used their shared minibus service yesterday - 31 January - and was very pleased with the service. I booked my one-way ticket on the Mears Transportation website 48 hours before travelling and at a cost of $20.00. Upon arrival in Orlando, the company's desk was clearly signposted and I was assisted by a friendly member of staff when using the self-service ticket machine. With my ticket, I went to the bus stop outside and was told there would be a wait of approximately 30 minutes. After exactly 30 minutes, the pager I had been given bleeped and I knew that was my signal to go back to the bus stop.
The driver introduced herself to me, asked how I was and explained that I was the only passenger on this trip. She invited me to sit in the front seat and chatted non-stop through the journey.
I would highly recommend the service to anybody, especially lone travellers or smaller groups. The cost of this service is substantially less than a taxi ($20 compared to approximately $70 by taxi), and with a pre-paid ticket, there are no nasty surprises with the fare! I will definitely be using the service when I next visit Orlando Airport.
