How far is WDW from Ft. Lauderdale?

SWA has a great fare from Phil. to Ft lauderdale. Does anyone know how long the drive to orlando is from there?
I'd love to take advantage of it since it would be @$110rt and 5 of us are flying.

It is about a four and a half hour or so drive.

Tampa is the best alternative airport for Disney. 75 miles, about an hour drive.
