Rental Cars
Rental cars can be collected at Orlando and Sanford International Airports
- at Orlando International a short bus ride is required for some of the rental
companies.
Taxis
Taxis and shuttle buses also run from both airports to the main tourist
areas, and you can use these to get around town during your stay if required.
When headed to a theme park from your hotel ask for the fare when you call a cab
as set rates often apply.
Free Shuttles
Many hotels offer a free shuttle to the bigger theme parks, which can
be a big money saver. Likewise guests staying in Disney accommodation have free
use of the Disney buses, ferries, and monorails.
Trolley Service
If you intend to stay on International Drive the I-Ride trolley service
costs just 75 cents and connects the I-Drive area theme parks and some great shopping
locations. The service runs every 15 minutes or so.
Orlando International Airport, by far
the larger of the two, handles both domestic and international flights from most
of the major airlines. Because OIA is actually located in Orlando, you land just
a 20-minute drive from all the attraction action.
Sanford Airport is quite a bit smaller
and handles mainly international flights from the U.K. Streamlined customs and
immigration services for passengers from abroad make up for a longer 40 minute
drive to the main attraction areas.
