Lyft or Lynx to Sea world

[SwanVT2]

It'll cost 13.50 for the day to and from DS to sea world on lynx. How much would lyft cost as a comparison? We will have to walk to DS from carousel at SSR and as I understand it Lynx stop is on the other side of the pedestrian walkway by Once upon a toy. Thanks.

The Lynx stop at Disney Springs is on the West Side past Cirque.

Lyft & Uber will start at around $12 one way.

The Lynx stop at Disney Springs is on the West Side past Cirque.

There is an additional stop as OP stated, on Buena Vista Dr. at the Hilton end of the pedestrian overpass.

Roughly every 30 minutes.

What is the name of the stop near hilton in the 50 schedule? Trying to figure out what time we need to leave SSR. Thank you

I did some checking on Google Maps.

From Carousel, the stop on the West Side of DS is a shorter walk: It's 0.8 mi. from the Carousel bus stop, so it would be a bit farther from most of the Carousel rooms. There's a trail sort of behind the Carriage House that leads down the hill to the golf course and boat dock. (It may be closed from sunset to sunrise). It connects to the golf cart bridge across the canal. After crossing the bridge, bear left towards DS and you can cross the parking lot to the bus loop. Here's the map.

The walk to the stop near the Hilton is 1.0 mi. As an alternative, you could take a Disney bus from Carousel to Congress Park, which is closest to the bridge to the DS Marketplace and the bus stop near the Hilton. The walk from Congress Park bus stop to the Lynx bus stop is 0.5 mi. Here's the map.

Here's the full map including the walk and bus trip from Carousel bus stop to SeaWorld, with departure and arrival times. If you open it on a laptop, you can scroll down the left panel and open "Schedule Explorer" to see scheduled runs. On a phone, I don't think you can view the full schedule within Maps, but you can change the targeted departure or arrival time. However, you can view the full schedule on the Lynx web site. Click on the "Schedule" tab. DISNEY SPRINGS TRANSFER CTR is the West Side stop; the stop near Marketplace will be a few minutes later. 6800 SEA HARBOR DR AND ACADEMIC is SeaWorld.

True!

You also need to know where the Sea World dropoff is located, and pull the cord to alert the bus driver to stop.

 

[Capt_BJ]

btw I just ran Disney Springs to SW on UBER and got $13

SO you can do it for twice the price with no waiting ........ if looking at round trip.

MAYBE .... cuz the bus price is per person and the UBER is per ride .....

if you are TWO ... looks like a 'push' for $ ... I know which way I'd go

It is 2 adults one child..is uber or lyft better in this area? Thanks.

 

[Capt_BJ]

prices for both are very dynamic .. but also very close (and most drivers will drive for both!)

'experts' have both apps on their phones and get prices then choose ... often the difference is pennies.

IF the child needs a car seat we enter a different dimension however ......

 

[SwanVT2]

Dd is 7. Will they have a booster for her? We could always take Mears from the front entrance I guess

 

[kaytieeldr]

Some Ubers have a car seat. It's a category. As far as i know,no rideshares provide a booster.

Under Florida law, a booster is not required for a 7 year old. If you want one anyway, Uber (but not Lyft) has both X and XL vehicles with a child seat. You'd be fine with X, which is less expensive.

I believe there is an $8 premium for Uber child seat vehicles, and only some vehicles have the seats.
