Hey there, Lynn! Welcome to planDisney! I'm so happy that you've stopped by with your vacation planning question. Chatting with a fellow Disney Vacation Club Member always makes my day!
Lynn, you must be SO excited about your oh-so-magical vacation this summer! Staying at
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort (my very favorite
Disney Vacation Club Resort) at
The Most Magical Place on Earth before setting sail on a week-long cruise on the
Disney Fantasy sounds like an absolute dream come true. And with a stop at
Disney Castaway Cay?! That dream is definitely a wish my heart would make! A
Disney Cruise Line cruise remains at the top of my Disney to-do list, so, while I don't have experience with this, I've enlisted the help of my pals and Disney Cruise Line expert panelists,
Andrew and
Adrianna to get you the most helpful answer.
As far as I am aware, there isn't a way for you to link your Disney Vacation Club and Disney Cruise Line Reservations within the Disney system. Therefore, if you booked your ground transportation through Disney Cruise Line, your transportation may be scheduled from Orlando International Airport (MCO) to Port Canaveral, instead of from your Resort. My Disney Cruise Line pals and I suggest calling a
Disney Vacations by Land and Sea Crew Member at (800) 951-3532 to ensure that your ground transportation from Disney's Contemporary Resort to Port Canaveral is all set!
Lynn, once that is all squared away, don't forget to plan for your ground transportation from Orlando International Airport (MCO) to Bay Lake Tower! You have several transportation options, including Mears Connect, a taxi or an app-based rideshare, such as Uber or Lyft. Now, you should be all set to embark on this summer's magical voyage!
Lynn, I hope that this helps, and I hope that you have the most memorable vacation this summer. It sounds as if it will be packed with pixie dust from land to sea! Stop by any time with any of your vacation planning questions. Bon voyage!
I hope to see ya real soon,
Mandy
