Ka-CHOW, Lisbeth, and thanks for squealing tires into planDisney! I'd love to help with your transportation options, because like
Lightning McQueen, you need to be faster than fast since your trip starts soon.
You have
a few ways to get from the airport to
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge. My first suggestion is to check into
Mears Private Ground Transportation. You can book a ride aboard a comfy, air-conditioned bus online. You'll head to their loading area near baggage claim, where they'll help get your luggage on the bus and whisk you to Walt Disney World Resort. This option is usually more cost-effective, but it can be a little slower because they sometimes drop off other guests at resorts along the way.
A more direct option is to use a ride-share service such as Lyft through their mobile app. You'll follow signs at the airport to the pick-up area where you'll meet your driver and go straight to your resort. This is my husband's go-to for airport transportation, mainly because he loves to chat with the driver for tips about the area!
Since it sounds like you're staying at a Disney Deluxe Resort hotel, you're also eligible to
book Minnie Van Service from the airport. However, guests typically need to book this a couple of days before arrival. If this festive option is your preference, I recommend calling them at
the number on this Transportation page as soon as possible to check availability and pricing. Minnie Vans are adorably polka dotted and convenient, but they are a more expensive option. My pal Amy recently booked a Minnie Van for transportation around the resort, and you can
read about her experience here. She's convinced me to try one on my upcoming visit!
Lisbeth, I hope I've given you some ideas for getting to your resort lickety-split! Safe travels, and please come back to
planDisney again. Like our four-wheeled friends from the film Cars, we love to give folks a little sizzle!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
