Welcome to planDisney, Bob!
Oh, what a great perk of attending a conference near
Walt Disney World: time to tour the parks!
My husband travels often for work, usually booking his stays at a Marriott property. Because of this, we tend to stay at a Marriott resort when traveling anywhere in the world. So many of these properties are so conveniently located and are absolutely gorgeous: the
JW Marriott Orlando Bonnet Creek Resort and Spa is one of them.
Check out Hotel Amenities listed on the page linked above, and you'll see that this resort offers complimentary shuttle transportation to WDW parks as well as
Disney Springs. As soon as you see your conference schedule, I'm sure you'll be able to carve out some time for fun such as heading to
Magic Kingdom Park to enjoy a DOLE Whip at
Aloha Isle or do a little shopping at
World of Disney. After days filled with meetings, you've earned them both--and more!
I checked out your resort's website and see that they do not offer shuttle service from Orlando International Airport. While you could use a car service such as Uber or Lyft, you might also contact the hotel and ask what transportation options they recommend.
Bob, as you plan to pack a little pixie dust into your conference plans, be sure to send additional questions our way. We love to help!
