Uber Sanford to Port Canaveral?

[aimcat]

Is there ever an issue getting a Uber to and from Port Canveral and Sanford for Transport? That is where our flight comes in.

I'm a local

 

I can not say I've ever heard of an issue and I just put in Terminal 1 to Sanford airport and saw a ride 3 minutes away for $80

 

BUT this is NOT prime time for cruise business ... the ships all departed for the day ......

 

The thing to remember is Canaveral and Sanford are small towns as compared to Miami or Orlando and accordingly they have fewer folks doing the UBER driver thing. Couple this with PC sometimes having 4,5 or even 6 ships in a day throwing in excess of 20,000 people (between arrivals and departures) and the potential for a mess is VERY REAL. Getting an UBER from S to PC is probably not an issue ... getting one at the port for the trip TO S ..... welllllllll

 

The only suggestion I have is to check the schedule for your day(s) in question to see what the port load is ....  https://www.portcanaveral.com/getattachment/Cruise/Cruise-Lines-Schedules/CPA-Website-Schedule-Jan-May-2023.pdf.aspx?lang=en-US

Thank you for the info! On our return day I see that there are 3 ships in March 10, thats not a lot for this port right? 

[Capt_BJ]

depends .....

 

the port spreadsheet listed pass' counts for the ships in the past. They stopped doing this. I think it scared folks.

 

3 small ships vs 3 big ships can be a difference but 3 is not as bad as 6!

 

know your ships? iow know how many the 3 in question carry?

Disney wish , independence of the seas, and carnival liberty. We are on independence I would think it would be the biggest?

When I used Uber to travel from Port Canaveral to Sanford, the driver received a message for a pickup there to go to Port Canaveral just as we were entering the airport. This should be typical mid-morning.
