Flying verses driving to port

[SL6827]

I just jotted down pricing with us flying verses driving from North Georgia to Cape Canaveral for three people, and driving will be like half the price of flying on Delta. That's a no brainer!

Make sure when calculating costs you include wear and tear on your vehicle, gas, parking. If flying calculate in cost to park at airport (if you dont have a ride) and cost to and from port. I don't mind driving if it is less than 10 hours but more than that I am flying.

If I had that choice I'd go ahead and drive. Yes, it will be a fairly long drive. Probably 8+ hours but you'll go straight from your house to the port in that time. No need to drive to the airport for the flight and then get from MCO to the port which might turn out to be almost the same amount of time.

Which ever you chose, it's strongly suggested that you arrive a day early.

Since we occasionally drive from MA to FL (even as far as Miami and Ft Lauderdale), I would definitely drive from GA and enjoy the savings.

If I lived that close I would drive. You never know what's going to happen with flights.

Absolutely drive if it’s better for da wallet! You’ll get to check out some cool stuff along the way to your Disney cruise.

We split it up in Valdosta.

We’re also in north Georgia and I will never, never ever drive to Central Florida again. For us, we will only fly. I don’t care about the cost.

I live in north suburbs of Atlanta. I am getting on the Treasure this Saturday. Driving down Friday morning, staying at Drury at DS Friday night. Only bad thing is having to get up super early to get through Downtown Atlanta. If flying I still would have to go through downtown, pay at airport for parking, pay for checked baggage, worry about liquids in carry on, pay for transportation to port.

Next year going to Alaska on Wonder, definitely will have to fly for that one.

We flew back from Vegas a couple weeks ago, and I'm so glad we missed the chaos at the airports now. Got by, but barely.

It took two extra days to get home from mco in July due to weather related mass cancellations. I could have driven across the country and been home earlier.
