Does anyone have good directions from the Orlando Airport to OKW I can give to relatives joining us at OKW this December?
Somehow, all roads lead to WDW :p , so we never have problems finding our way. But what is the most direct, quickest, etc way to get to OKW? Their flight arrives at 9PM on a Friday night so traffic should not be a factor.
Thanks if anyone can help.
2 weeks to go!!!!

I always take the south exit out of the airport to 417 South (Florida Greenway). You go through 2 toll booths, $1 each. Get off at Exit 6, International Drive. This is 536. Stay on this road until you pass under the WDW Arch and take the first exit, Downtown Disney. At the end of the ramp is a light, you will see the OKW Lighthouse on the opposite corner. Go straight and make a right turn at the next light (the OKW sign will be at the corner). This is Community Drive, the OKW entrance is the second right. On my last trip we made it off the plane, picked up our luggage, got the rental car and made it to OKW in a little over an hour (this was around noon). 417 has little traffic, much less than the Beeline & I-4.

I agree with DebbieB, this is by far the best way to travel "home". If you need a store, try Albertson's on Orange Blossom Tr along the way.

I also agree with this, except, I don't take the 1st exit, after the arch, I use the 3rd exit. This come out right at the 2nd light up on community drive. Just go straight across and OKW is the 2nd right.
