If we are not doing land/sea with Disney cruise line but on our own, can we still do the land/see transfers?

Hi Patricia,
We just got back and you can absolutely do the transfers with Disney at any time. Before you leave call Disney; or for one way arrangements wait until you are on board and visit Guest Services at the beginning of the week when it's unbelievably quiet at their desk. It takes 5 minutes to arrange.

From the airport to Cape Canaveral I booked a rental car from Budget so we could explore the Cocoa Beach area, arriving a day early. I left the transfers from the ship to the airport on our last day open ended because I hadn't decided what we would do to kill time on Saturday before our 5:30pm flight. While on board, we decided to make it a relaxing day, and I was able to book transfers for all 4 of us at Guest Services. The charge will appear on your final bill from DCL, and a sticker is placed on one of the Key to the World Cards to be shown to the bus transfer people when you leave the ship. It couldn't have been any easier.

Comparing cost: a rental one way was quoted in and around $40.00 for the size car we needed. A taxi would be $60.00. Disney bus transfer is $25.00 per person (so $100.00 for us). We weighed the pros and cons, including price, trying to smush all of us and luggage in a cab, or getting ourselves and the luggage to the Budget tent then driving, and decided to leave it to the Mouse. We ended up sleeping the day away (not even using the pool) at the day room at the Hyatt (another $75.00 but well spent.)

Hope this helps.

Thanks Kathy! We are going to the Poly for 7 nights before our 3 night cruise. We had planned on renting a car and then keeping it for our WDW stay and dropping it off at the port the morning of the cruise. Then we would get Disney transfers back to the airport. It seems a lot more $$ to keep the car 10 nights as opposed to 7 and pay the $30 parking at the port. I was wondering what would be cheaper.
