From Miami to Orlando - Need help

[sisiblum]

My sister and brother in law will arrive MIA Airport Oct 4 @ 06:30 am. (from a very long fly from Brazil).

What is the best (I mean less expensive way) to go to Orlando from there?

Should them rent a car, go by bus or fly?

Do any of you know a shuttle service or a company that do this travel at low cost?

They only need one way, because they have a MCO - GRU(Brazil) flight when they will come back home.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Simone.

I think the cheapest way would be for them to rent a car.

We've flown in and out of Miami, FLL and West Palm and have always just rented a car to get to Orlando.

Anytime I priced other ways it seemed to be a lot more hassle and a lot more money.

Hope this helps.

They could take the train from Hollywood, Florida (14 miles north of Miami) to Kissimmee, Florida. The fare is about $35 each one-way, leaving Hollywood at 9:04 a.m. and arriving Kissimmee at 1:16 p.m.. There is another train 3 hours later, but its a longer trip.

They could, of course, ride the train all the way from Miami to Orlando, but there is a better way. Hollywood (Florida) station has coinnecting Tri-Rail train service to the Miami Airport, so its an easy (cheap) connection. Also, the station at Kissimmee is closer to WDW than Orlando itself. THey will still need transportation from Kissimmee to Disney; Taxi cabs are available, or you can reserve some manner of town-car service, or there are Lynx public buses, though that option may be difficult with a lot of luggage.
