Hi Kristin, welcome to planDisney!
There are
several options for transportation from the airport to Walt Disney World Resort. You can book airport transportation directly through the Mears website. You’ll need to have your flight information available, for your arrival and departure flights if you’re booking a round trip. After booking, you’ll receive a confirmation e-mail that includes a boarding pass to use before loading onto the shuttle. Some of the shuttles stop at multiple Disney resorts, but I see that as an opportunity to see other resorts and get an idea of where I’d like to stay next!
I’ve used Mears several times and found it to be extremely convenient. If you are using Mears to return to the airport after your vacation, make sure you are at the designated location at your Disney Resort at the time listed on your return boarding pass.
It looks like your vacation begins around the start of the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, Kristin! This is one of my favorite festivals! Keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for the Foodie Guide to the Festival, so you can plan which outdoor kitchens you’d like to visit. However, you can see the
Garden Rocks Concert Series lineup, so you can decide if you’d like to book a
Garden Rocks Dining Package which would include a guaranteed seat to the concert! Booking for the Garden Rocks Dining Packages opens January 29, 2025.
I hope this was helpful, Kristin. Enjoy your upcoming trip to Walt Disney World! If you have any future questions, come back and see us at
