Anyone used the lynx buses to get to USF/IOA?

[Korbs]

HI all!

Last year we stayed at the top of I Drive and got the bus to disney and the hotel shuttle to USF/IOA. This time will be our first stay onsite at AKL (can't wait!). From what I can remember, we would to get the 50 from the TTC to seaworld, the I ride trolley to the top end (stop for breakfast!) and then the 42 to USF/IOA.

Does anyone know if this is correct?

Does anyone know what time they start and finish running?
(I think we would need to get a taxi back as it's not very late?)

And last of all, which part of I drive would we get the 42 from?
(We got on at the top near walgreens one day and ended going the scenic route all round the houses. Instead of turning to USF/IOA it carried straight on towards downtown orlando then doubled back on itself and went across Sandlake road(I think) at the other end and went to USF/IOA from the other direction).
Would we need to get on where I drive crosses Sandlake road?

p.s I've seen a lot about Mears on the boards but there is 6 of us so it would probably be cheaper to take a taxi or towncar(what's the difference?). Does anyone know approx how much these would cost and would it be possible to get picked up and dropped off at I drive as we want to eat breakfast and dinner there on the days we are at USF/IOA?

Thanks in advance for all your helpful info!!!

I have looked at the website and i just don't find it particularly helpful, and the maps aren't that much use cause the only roads i know are I drive and Sandlake rd, so if anyone can help it would be appreciated. If not i'll just have to find my way when i get there! I managed it last time but i hoping to be more organised this time!

Thanks

I went over and looked. To get to Sea World you would catch the bus at the Disney Ticket and Transportation Center (Bus #50) which takes you to Sea Harbor and Central Parkway. Buses appear to leave every 30 minutes starting at 7:18 and the trip takes 30 minutes. I don't know how to get to Universal, but I know it has been posted on here, it seems like it takes a while.
