I posted elsewhere but thought I would start a new thread:

Does anyone have a recommendation on limo service from the airport to the WDW Resorts? I've found a few on-line but didn't want to just blindly pick without some input first.
There will be 8 of us in our party and we are looking at one of those Hummer Limo's that carry about 12 people so there is enough room for our luggage.

I know Magical Express is free but we are looking for something special to surprise our family with and a "great uncle" passed recently and left us a little something. So we want to show everyone a great time.

We're using Mears Transportation. I've never used them before so I don't really know how good they'll be, but they were easy and very nice to reserve. For my family of seven and luggage they are bringing us from the train station to the Contemporary Resort for $75. If your trip is beyond December 4th or so, I can let you know how it went.

Thanks so much. We are leaving January 19th for 10 nights and staying at the Pop Century and then the Polynesian.

Enjoy your trip!

Sadly, my trip is over. But it was great before and during. Anyway, I definitely recommend Mears Transportation. We arrived at the Orlando train station at the preplanned time but I couldn't find the Mears van. After we got our checked baggage I called them and they answered promptly on a Sunday afternoon. It turned out that they had mistakenly dated my reservation as 2008 on the reservation form, even though the first page, the credit card charge form, had the correct arrival date in 2007. I didn't notice the error. They said it was not my fault and they said they would have a van at the station for us in less than 20 minutes. Fifteen minutes later the van arrived and we were on a very pleasant trip to our hotel.

Thanks for the info. So sorry the trip is over but I'm so happy that you had a great time. How great that they were still able to get you a vehicle on such short notice. They are on my list of places to try and now they are bumped to the top of the list!!

Thanks so much for getting back to me.

I used happy limo last year, May, and they were great! I'm using them again to take us to from WDW resort to port canaveral in March, check out mousesavers.com there is a coupon code you can use. Hope this isn't too late and that it helps. :)

Thanks Kala,

Actually we just returned from our trip and we did use Happy Limo to take us from the airport to our resort when we arrived. They were fabulous! Our plane was delayed earlier in the day and we didn't even know about it yet and they phoned us to tell us that they had been checking our flights and knew we would be late and they would keep an eye on it for us and arrive for our pick-up accordingly. When we arrived the driver was standing in the baggage claim with a sign with our names on it and helped us claim all our luggage and take it to the limo. We had an SUV lincoln navigator stretch limo for the 8 of us and it was perfect.

I would use them again in a heartbeat!
