Complicated transport question

[bekkiz]

Okay, I've asked here before, but it was quite a few months ago and my post got lost somewhere, and my travel agent has no ideas, so I'm hoping some one can take pity on me and offer a suggestion

Here's our travel needs for our honeymoon this December

12/1 airport to Royal Pacific at universal
12/3 RPR to Discovery Cove and Back
12/4 RPR to Port Canaveral for our Cruise
12/7 Port Canaveral to Port Orleans Riverside. Also POR to Seaworld and back
12/13 POR to airport

We do not want to rent a car, as my husband will turn 25 during the trip, and it's too expensive (50-60/day) for young people to rent.

I'm leaning towards using Mears for the airport connections, but wonder what the cheapest (though convenience is important too) way to do the Port Canaveral stuff, as well as get out to seaworld twice is.

Thanks for any suggestions

I've read that quite a few people have used the Lynx public bus to get from the TTC to Seaworld and haven't had any problems. It is around a dollar per person one way. You can go to their website and get the bus schedules. (I don't know the addy, but you could try doing a search for Lynx orlando and I bet it wouldn't be too hard to find) Unless you are traveling with just a carry-on, the Lynx wouldn't be good for airport to Disney, though.

Hello bekkiz,
First, I think a complimentary shuttle service should available to you from RPR to get to Sea World/Discovery Cove. (I suggest check w/RPR) the only shuttle service that’s that is not provided for you free might be from POR to sea world. For that, I think you’re looking around $50-$60 on either a taxi or town car. Now, you mentioned you’re considering Mears for the airport transfer to your resorts. If you’ve only 2 or less traveling, that’s the most economical way at $28/per person if you don’t mind making a few stops along the way. However, for approximately $30 more you can get a town car for a more personalized service. Please check with FL TOURS. Our link is at the top this board.
To get to the Port and back, the only shuttle I know would be Disney’s shuttle provided by Mears. I’m not sure if they come to pick up people from Universal resorts. If they do, they would charge you approximately $50.00/per person to go to Disney Cruise line. The only thing is, they have schedule you have to follow and put up with other inconveniences you get from being on the shuttle. If you on the other hand contemplating a town car, you can get, this portion of your trip for $50.00-$60.00 more than what you are paying for the shuttle. If you have any other questions or concerns regarding town car service and rate, please write us back at customercare@fltours.com
Hope this helps.
