Ahoy there, Michelle! Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney. It's always a treat to meet a fellow Michigander, and I'll be happy to share some planning tips to make preparations for your
Disney Cruise Line vacation smooth sailing!
My top DCL travel tip is to use the Disney
ground transportation whenever possible. It takes so much stress out of your embarkation and debarkation days with Disney handling the details and whisking you to or from the port!
The Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa is one of the hotels where DCL will pick Guests up for transfer to Port Everglades. Unfortunately, there is no Disney shuttle from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) to the hotel. Since the hotel does not have an airport shuttle, rideshare is a great option to get you to the Marriott. Just follow the posted signs to the lower level of the airport for pickup. The resort is a 15-20 minute ride from the airport, and you can relax and get started on your vacation!
Michelle, if you haven't booked your ground transportation from the hotel to the port, I recommend doing that sooner rather than later. You can do this online via the DCL website in the "My Reservations" section, or
call for assistance.
I hope this information is helpful for your planning purposes, Michelle! If you have any other questions about your cruise, our planDisney crew is always here to assist with logistics and add a little extra pixie dust. Come see us again anytime!
SEA Ya Real Soon!
