billylen Posted February 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Will be arriving in Fort Lauderdale on Oct 31st. Was wondering if there are shuttles (inexpensive) from the FLL port to MCO. Any suggestions are welcomed! (and thanks!) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted February 29, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 29, 2016 You realize that is a 3 plus hour drive? Common recommendation is renting a car. I believe train is also an option. We will be renting a car for the reverse drive next March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions are welcomed! (and thanks!) :) I would go with the one-way car rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It listed as 3 hours, 4 minutes. I have also mapped the toll free route, that comes to almost 4 hours. Of course Google maps is real time, traffic included. I did the mapping at about 4pm Florida time today- a Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueHerons Posted March 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted March 1, 2016 By 2017 you'll be able to use All Aboard Florida and the Brightline Express. It will take you from downtown Orlando to downtown Miami in under 3 hours (it is currently a four hour drive). http://www.AllAboardFlorida.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted March 2, 2016 #9 Share Posted March 2, 2016 There are also some flights from both FLL & MIA to MCO - although with the TSA lines and check-in times you can likely drive it faster in a rental car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floorman Posted March 6, 2016 #10 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I'm renting a one way car from POM to Orlando. $52 for a full size I will be doing the same trip in December, what car company did you go with for the $52 for a full size car? Where are you picking up the car, POM or airport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted March 6, 2016 #11 Share Posted March 6, 2016 There are no car rental agencies at POM. Avis, Hertz and a couple others are nearby in downtown Miami (about a $12 cab ride), but they are often overwhelmed with cruisers. National, Alamo & Thrifty offer free shuttles from POM to their MIA airport location - show the shuttle driver you reservation paperwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
