Just back...transportation info:)

[NoodlesTheRabbit]

We are back from the most magical trip ever!

1. The WDW buses from WL were very sporadic. You would see three MGM buses and not a single Epcot one. We missed our PS b/c we had to wait 25 mins. for a bus. Overall, they scored a B- with us.

2. Boat from WL was awesome. We never waited more than 5 minutes and the ride itself was fun. Very enjoyable...

3. USAir: flight to MCO was super. Very smooth. We were picked for the random security check and had our luggage hand searched here at Avoca. Arm had my diamond in his carry-on, he was so nervous I would see it!!

flight back to Avoca: a little bumpy, but overall fine. Again, we tried to use curbside check-in, but we had the random security check.. In MCO, they ran the luggage through an x-ray machine though so it didn't take long. Our purses and carryons were thoroughly searched though, and we were wanded about 3 times.

4. TTC was great!!! Brian was super, and we had Sam for our SeaWorld excursion. Even though we got a flat tire on the way, another driver came almost immediately to whisk us to SeaWorld. We will use them again...

Any Q???

We are using Happy Limo, and I'm guessing the MCO procedure will be the same as with TTC. Do the towncars still have to park away from the airport and be brought around by the driver? That was what was happening last I heard...we are flying in on 11/21, so the airport will probably be a zoo anyway! If they have to bring the car, approx. how long did it take?

[fyi]

Security on groun level is still tight for the drivers (no unattended cars) but the wait should only be 10 to 15 min give the poor guys a break.

Yes, I think we waited even less than 10 minutes...Brian said that they are towing cars left and right that are unattended and parked where they shouldn't be.

Duh....
I just remembered that since our flight got switched to a day earlier, the towncar will be picking us up at the Amerisuites. Our flight has been switched so many times that I can't keep track anymore! Just got a new flight number yesterday (apparently they had given me the wrong one last time they switched us).
Even if we had to wait at the airport for the towncar, I wouldn't mind. I was just curious as to what we are in for. Since we are flying the day before Thanksgiving (and from O'Hare, aka the "security breach" airport), we'll be lucky to make it through the security line in time for our flight.
