    If you stay at a Disney resort prior to a Disney cruise, can you leave your car parked at the Disney resort while you are on your Disney Cruise and use Disney transportation to get to Port Canaveral

    Ahoy there, Vikki!

    Welcome aboard planDisney! It sounds like you’re charting a course for an unforgettable land and sea adventure, and I love the way you’re thinking ahead about all the details—now that’s planning worthy of Captain Minnie herself!

    Now, let’s talk about parking. Walt Disney World Resort parking is reserved for Guests during their stay, so once you check out to embark on your high-seas adventure, you won’t be able to leave your car at the resort while you cruise. I know that’s not exactly the pixie-dusted answer you were hoping for, but don’t worry—I’ve got a plan to keep your adventure running smoother than a monorail gliding down the track!

    Since you’re already looking into Disney Cruise Line ground transportation, you might consider driving yourself to Port Canaveral instead. The drive from Walt Disney World to the port is easy—way simpler than dodging asteroids on Star Tours—and it gives you complete control over your embarkation day schedule. No waiting for buses, no extra stops—just you, your crew, and an open road leading straight to your magical voyage.

    If you decide to take the wheel, I highly recommend parking at the terminal parking garage. It’s right next to the terminal, making it super convenient when it’s time to board and, even better, when you disembark at the end of your cruise. Just drop your luggage with the amazing porters, park, take a short stroll, and you’ll be ready to step into the magic—or in this case, onto the ship!

    No matter how you get there, one thing’s for sure—your vacation is going to be practically perfect in every way! If you have any more questions, just whistle while you plan, and I’ll be happy to help!

    Sea ya real soon with love in the air and magic everywhere,
