Hello Alayna! Thank you for taking the time to ask us a Disney planning question! We're so excited that you will be spending time at our most favorite place.
There are a few options for how to get from the Orlando International Airport to your Walt Disney World resort.
Disney Minnie Van service through the Lyft app is the most magical way to journey from the airport to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel! What’s better than being picked up in a vehicle styled after everyone’s favorite mouse? This option provides a private ride, meaning no other families will travel with you, offering a comfortable and convenient experience. Each Minnie Van has two child safety seats, which Disney Cast Members are trained to install for you. Plus, Minnie Vans can drop you off right at your resort’s main entrance.
You can also secure standard transportation with one of the rideshare apps like Lyft and Uber. You'll catch your ride in a designated area of the airport and be dropped off at the entrance of your resort.
Shuttle service is another convenient option for traveling from the airport to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel. Mears Connect offers motorcoach transportation that provides a relaxing ride while you enjoy Disney-themed entertainment along the way. Reservations for Mears Connect must be made directly through their website, as this is a third-party service. It’s an affordable option for families and offers both standard and express service, depending on your budget and preference. Plus, Mears Connect can also take you back to the airport at the end of your magical vacation, making your travels smooth from start to finish!
Last, is a car rental. If you want more freedom to explore the Orlando area, you can pick up a rental from the airport.
Parking at all Walt Disney World hotels is complimentary for guests. If you choose not to keep your car for your entire stay, you can pick up your car from the airport and return to the
Disney Car Care Center, which is located at Walt Disney World. Just be sure to choose a vehicle from Enterprise, National, or Alamo. Once you drop off your car at the Car Care Center, a complimentary shuttle will take you to your Disney resort.
Alayna, I hope this helps you to make the best decision for your family. Please stop by and see us again soon for more Disney travel tips!
Toodles,
Korliss
