Everything else on property seems to be normal. There is a special event going on at DHS, so they have special traffic routing on Buena Vista Drive. There was a large number of cars trying to get into Epcot a few minutes ago, but that could be normal. All of the other hotels I have driven past...

I asked some CM's waiting in the parking lot what had happened. They did not know anything. I have also asked some security CM's at other hotels, and they don't know anything either.

Sports and Music are clear. As I exited Movies a uniformed OC deputy told me to drive as fast away from the building as I could.

Guests are being evacuated from ASMovies, and there's lots of police at the entrance. Does anyone know what is going on?

At this time, no Uber or Lyft vehicle can legally pick up at the Orlando airport. A tentative agreement was recently reached, and it appears that Uber Black might be allowed to pick up soon, but no date has been set. Right now, Uber Black does not even exist as an option in Orlando. Again...

No. Disney no longer charges any taxi company to pick up or drop off. Uber is included in this new policy. The only place that gives Uber a hard time is the security at Shades of Green. That will change soon enough.

That is creative, but it won't work. The pickup location has to be completely off of airport property.

Unfortunately this is even more common now. Most of the riders I pick up at Disney tell me their other Uber drivers are always brand new. Just yesterday I had a rider tell me their driver couldn't get them back to the Grand Floridian without making multiple attempts. This is really unacceptable...

The Uber app does not have an option to tip. The Lyft app does, but you will usually get an Uber before you get a Lyft.

Mears does not directly set their rates. The City of Orlando holds meetings every few years to determine the rates that all taxis must charge. For simplicity, Mears applies the Orlando rates to all of their cabs, even the ones that can't pick up in Orlando. This is important to know because if...

The lowest 12 hour rate for a sedan is $105. The highest 12 hour rate for a sedan is $143. The rate depends upon the type of vehicle and where the vehicle can work.

Mears is self-insured and fully compliant with Florida laws. If you request an UberXL the driver carries their own commercial vehicle-for-hire insurance which fully complies with Florida laws. If you request an UberX, Uber Select, or Lyft the insurance is provided by Marsh, USA (formerly James...

The end scene is different than it was in 1974. It's somewhat dated, but it's still worth seeing.

A few minutes after my post about 10 taxis showed up. I didn't have time to say anything until now. When I pulled out of the parking lot the line for the Epcot buses stretched back to the gift shop next to the ticket booths. They were loading two buses at a time, so I think it moved quickly.

All this people taking taxis and no one thinks to use Uber. It's crazy.

Thank you very much for the clarification. That tip line is for when you use Uber to request a regular taxi in NYC.

Some guests must be choosing to take taxis because there are none. Normally there are 20 here this time of day.

Guests at the TTC who want to go to Epcot are lining up where the taxis stage. It's a long line.

Thanks for asking, but you might be using the Mears taxi app or the Lyft app. Uber's app does not have the option for tipping. If you use the Mears app the driver is charged a percentage of the total amount (fare + tip). The fee goes to pay for the in-cab equipment and the credit card...

The absence of cheese is making me feel blue. (Nope, it wasn't used yet.) On a totally unrelated note: If attractions were cheesy... Camembert Jamboree (say it with a French accent) American Adventure (too easy) Mozzarella Castle If Disney movies were cheesy... The Provolone Ranger (also...
