Directions to the Poly?

[Ursine1]

Hello everyone!

We leave for 8 days at the Poly this Saturday!!

Can anyone help me with driving directions from the airport? I thought I saw them here before, but now I can't find them, and the search function isn't working (it says "Sorry. The search function has been disabled by the administrator.").

Thanks in advance!

How many people going? When we get off the plane my wife and son get the luggage while I go pick up the car ( BAND - Budget, Avis, National and Dollar are on-site ). When leaving the garage follow the signs back around the airport to arriving flights and pick them up, they're always waiting by the time I get the car there.

As far as getting to WDW, I'll NEVER use the BeeLine Xway again, it can be a traffic nightmare. 417 really is a nice drive.

Follow the 417 South exit from the airport. You have to drive a few miles before you actually get on the GreenWay (417) so pay attention.
The entrance to 417 is Mile Marker #17. Follow to Exit #3, Osceola Parkway. It's only a couple of miles west until World Drive.

Stay to the right after the MK toll plaza. After the stop sign there's a traffic light where you'll make a left. The Poly is on the right just passed the TTC.

I'll e-mail you a map I just scanned. One is 600Kb, one is 1.8Mb. Do you have a broadband connection?

I agree with smfnj. Just back from a stay at the Polynesian and I made 4 trips back and forth to the airport shuttling relatives! 417 was a pleasure- I travelled at all times of day and night and never hit any traffic.

Excellent! Thanks for the great directions everyone, and the great map scan Steve.
