QuickSilver - has anyone used it recently?

What was your experience? Was it worth the money? I am thinking of using QS to take us from MCO to Contemporary but using ME to go back to the airport. Can we do this? Thanks, as always!

Re: QuickSilver - has anyone used it recently?

Everytime we use Quicksilver it is an excellent experience. We last used them in January.
Yes you can hire them for one trip only.

We used QS last fall (as we have for the last 4 years), and thew service is great! They are always on time and very professional. You can hire them for just a 1 way transfer, but if I remember right, it is almost as expensive to do it that way as to do a round trip.

We used them in December. As always, they were top notch. Over the years we have tried other services and we feel QS is the best.

Highly recommend. Use them anytime we're not renting a car.

Re: QuickSilver - has anyone used it recently?

Sorry to thread jack, but how far in advance do you usually book QS? I have my flight times and flight numbers now so I am wondering if we should go ahead and book them for our Set 17-25 trip. Can you book this early?

Re: QuickSilver - has anyone used it recently?

I'm going in Oct. and I'm booked. It's all part of the planning fun. And one thing less about which to worry.

Re: QuickSilver - has anyone used it recently?

Book as soon as you have your flight numbers. They appreciate the advance notice as much as any business would. You can make the arrangements online and then Gregory will be in touch with you. It's simple, it's professional, it's always wonderful.

The first time we used them the boys were 9 or so and very excited. When we arrived in Orlando, there was our driver with a sign with our boys' names on it. They loved it! So ask them to do that for you if that matters to you.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get from MCO to Contemporary using QS?

Just curious, but how much?
