It is, provided you have four people and your luggage fits.. . . From WDW to Port it was $120 for 4 people...this sounds like the cheapest, most convenient option. . .
I just read through all of Shirley's info WOW! Amazing! At one point, there is a list of taxi fares. From WDW to Port it was $120 for 4 people...this sounds like the cheapest, most convenient option. Has anyone done this - is it too good to be true? TIA
DCL is $70 per person round trip. I do not believe that they sell the transfers one-way. They will take you either to/from the airport to the port and/or a Disney Resort and back. The main benefit that I thought was special is the check-in desk at Orlando airport for the Cruise Line. I had my Key To The World card before I boarded the bus to Port Canaveral. No luggage to deal with, and I went right from the bus on to the ship without stopping!So DCL charges $35 per person - x4 = $140. Motor coach transportation with video playing getting you in the mood, vs, crammed up on a taxi?

My how things have changed in less than 6 months. I liked the checkin at the airport for those doing port transfers. Now I will need to re-think my whole "port transfers" are better mantra!Unfortunately, you can no longer check in for the cruise and get your KTTW at the airport. You now have to check in at port. We were on the Fantasy last week, though, and our wait time at the port terminal to check in was minimal. We may have waited 5 minutes. This was at 12:30 p.m.

Thanks for the update.
I think that's the worse part of it. When we went on the Fantasy, we were in boarding group 22. That was my highest boarding group ever! I have been in boarding group 1... that was special.However since you don't check in at the airport anymore you're boarding number is tied to your PAT.

I am trying to get to Platinum. Maybe next year sometime. (Yes, we were Concierge on our 1/2012 Disney Dream sailing.)You were concierge with a 1. Guessing you aren't platinum since you had a 22 last time. That gives you a 2 automatically.
The buses still leave the airport starting around 9 am, and you still get into the terminal early. However since you don't check in at the airport anymore you're boarding number is tied to your PAT.
