Driving to WDW: Which way would you go?

[baileybelle]

We're driving from Maine to WDW. Have driven twice before and usually avoid NYC, NJ, Balt. and Wash. by going 84-81(Scranton, PA)-66-17-95. I have checked on 2 other routes and would appreciate any input. I've checked milage on all 3 routes and at the most there may be about a 20 mile difference between them.

1. 84-684-87-Tappanzee bridge-287-78-81-66-17-95

2. 84-87-287-78-81-66-17-95

3. 84-81-66-17-95

Thanks!!!

We always take the Tappanzee - we've never had any problems. We also go to the Jersey shore every other year and take that route. My father has hit traffic problems on it before(he goes to Jersey a few times a year), but not too often.

Just a note, I see 66 on your routes. If you pick up 17 at Winchester VA. it saves quite a bit of the drive, it is 2 lane for 7 miles but not a bad drive,you still get on 66 for a few miles. Have a great trip. (I also take the Pa Turnpike around Scranton, Avoids traffic and some hills.)
