Bus transportation (Sarasota to Orlando) info needed??

[Joan S.]

Hi, I am planning on visiting a relative in Sarasota,FL and then meeting my DH in Orlando. I will fly into Sarasota but would like to take a bus to Orlando. The two I find online are Florida Shuttle and The Florida Express Bus. They both leave from the same spot in Sarasota (a McDonalds) and drop off at the Orlando airport. (where I will meet DH) The Florida shuttle leaves at 4:30pm and arrives at MCO at 7pm. The Florida Express Bus also leaves at 4:30pm but arrives at MCO at 8:30pm. (I guess they take different routes??) I would like to know if anyone has had any experiences with either of these Shuttle/Bus modes of transportation in Florida?? Or if there is another bus/train that I would provide this service?? Thanks for any input . Joan

Sorry no real help here but I did notice that the shuttle's travel time is shorter by 1 1/2 hours. If nothing else, I would lean toward the shuttle.

Thanks, that is kind of why I was asking if anyone had actually used either bus/shuttle company. Not only is it shorter it is also cheaper by about$10. Prices however could go up closer to departure date. Your reply bumped me back up to the top , so maybe someone else will give me a review. Joan

No problem, I hope you find out what you need, oh, and have a GREAT TIME!

Hi, I realized BUS transportation probably made people think I meant DISNEY buses so I edited the title and HOPE I can get a reply. Thanks, Joan
