Hi Janice! Aww, thank you! All of us at the Disney Parks Moms Panel are so glad you have found our answers helpful. It is truly our pleasure to assist you and other guests with their Disney vacation plans.
Water Transportation to
Disney Springs is one of my favorite
amenities of
Disney's Port Orleans-French Quarter Resort. The relaxing trip along the Sassagoula River takes approximately 20 minutes for the ride itself. I usually allow at least an hour, as you may experience a short wait for the next boat to arrive and will need a few minutes to walk to
T-REX for your dining reservation.
If you will be utilizing
Disney's Magical Express complimentary airport transportation, a good rule of thumb is to expect to arrive at your Resort Hotel approximately 90 minutes after arriving at Orlando International Airport. Barring any unforeseen delays, I think you should be able to make it in time for your meal.
During your stay, don't forget to stop by
Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory for some of their famous beignets!
Enjoy your trip, and please feel free to come back and visit the Moms Panel again any time.
Anne Marie
