Taxis at Port Canaveral?

[galimeyer]

I was searching around and found a thread from 2021. Are there still taxis lined up in the terminal area (Mardi Gras) to take you to MCO?

Sailed from PC last year. Transport to MCO was an issue since we booked "last minute". Most shuttle services were already fully booked. It was unclear if taxis would be available. We booked the carnival shuttle. we found out later Uber surge was over $100. Just my experience and sorry I couldn't directly answer about taxis

You need to remember MCO is a good 48 mile drive from the port.  Yes, there are taxis always lined up at every ship but it's going to cost you a bundle to take a taxi.

A taxi to MCO is going to cost you a lot and Uber pricing will be surging.  Try looking into these shuttles BUT if you use them you must pre-book!!

remember that outside of the cruise port this is a pretty small town and the number of taxi avaialble is NOTHING like what you see in Miami or Lauderdale. A lot will depend on the 'port load' for the day. If only one ship is turning around there will be taxi (and UBER). If  it is a 4 (or more) ship day .... not so much. Same applies to how crazy the car rental places will be and how soon shuttles will book up.
