Getting to Port Canaveral
Hi All,
Our travel agent suggested that it might serve us better to make our own flight arrangements for a 2/04 cruise leaving from Port Canaveral. I understand we fly into Orlando and that it's about 45 minutes to the port. Any suggestions to make sure things go smoothly and work out well? We can't go a day early, since a couple of us must work on Friday till 5PM. Are there limo services that cater to the cruise passengers? Should I be pushing the travel agent to make the arrangements thru the cruise line? He told me the cost difference right now would be significant? Any advice appreciated. PattyC |

Getting to Port Canaveral
Cruise lines sell transfers for around $20 each way per person from Orlando
International Airport to Port Canaveral, even if you aren't on a cruise line's pre-arranged flights. There are also shuttle companies, but I think your best bet here is the cruise transfer service.

Getting to Port Canaveral
The cost is $38 from Orlando to Cape Canaveral -- the transportation line
is Mears transportation -- they're huge -- they handle both Canival and Disney direct and, I'm sure, direct contact from cruisers using other lines Bill "Thomas Smith" -NO-SPAM wrote in message ...

Getting to Port Canaveral
We rented a car and got a great rate. It was with avis and the shuttle is 10
minutes from the port. You don't have to wait for any drivers or shuttles at the airport. It is very easy to get to port canaveral from Orlando. Look into this you will not regret it. I saved about 80 dollars going this way! |

Getting to Port Canaveral
Mears is very efficient and reliable. $38 round trip isn't bad, especially
considering the hassle-factor of renting a car each way. Linda "William W. Wright" wrote... This is $38 R/T "William W. Wright" wrote...
