Best way to get from POP to CSR?

[lvdis]

To make a long story short... we've had our flight times changed numerous times by Airtran and we've decided to change our flight to Friday afternoon instead of Saturday. Our package is at CSR is 11/21 - 11/28. We decided to stay on Friday night at POP using a room only discount. Our flight will get in Friday night around 6pm. I've never done anything like this, so I've got questions. I hope someone can help me out! We are planning to take DME to POP when our flight arrives. We will have carry-on luggage only.

Our tickets/dining are associated with the CSR package, so I'm guessing we will have to go check in there Saturday morning before we can go to any parks. So, how would you recommend we get from POP to CSR? Take the bus to a park and transfer to a CSR bus? Is this the best way when using Disney transportation?

You have a few options. You said you have only carryon luggage but I would imagine that those bags are going to be more than a tote bag, right? More likely a larger, wheeled type bag. In that case, you won't be able to use Disney transportation with the bags. You can have POP take the bags, first thing in the morning, and they can move them over to CSR for you. Then you can take a bus to a park and then transfer to CSR there.
Or...just take a cab, with your bags. It shouldn't be too much, probably around $10 and you would have had to pay tips to have your luggag handled.
If it were me, I would just use the cab and keep my bags with me. That way you have everything you need with you, when you get to CSR.

For once I agree on the cab. On our last trip, we tried to get to Coronado Springs early in the morning to eat at Pepper Market, and it was difficult to say the least.

One time, we took a bus to Blizzard Beach and it took FOREVER to get from Blizzard Beach over to Coronado Springs.

Buses are just not going back to resorts from anywhere before about 10am.

However, if you absolutely did not want to take a cab, have Pop Century transfer your luggage over to Coronado Springs, then take a bus to Blizzard Beach, then walk. It's not that far and there is a sidewalk.

We are doing the same thing in October and was so glad this was posted, thank you!
