Sky Bus/Transfer from St. Augustine Airport?

[tink_about_it]

St. Augustine is around 100 miles from WDW and through www.skybus.com, my family that normally drives could fly there and back for only $130. Now, with that said, if we rent a car, we'd spend $450 plus gas on a minivan that would fit us...so it's hundreds over driving for us. What I'm searching for is a transfer from St. Augustine to OKW? Anyone know where I might begin to even look? We would be wasting our $ on renting a car that we'd park for a week. (We never drive while at Disney)

DRIVE--Normally I'd suggest renting a car for one day (one way rental) in each direction BUT Enterprise is the only rental agency in the airport and I don't think they'll do a one way rental.

Skybus doesn't fly into Orlando. Add the skybus extras plus the cost to get from St. Augustine to Disney and you'll lose much of your savings.

BTW Skybus has a limited number of $10 fares. I wouldn't count on flying your entire family for $130 R/T.

Thanks...I'm figuring we will still drive. I was hoping to go at Christmas and we might not have the time to waste 2 full days traveling...Oh well.

Based on what I am seeing I think the OP may have meant $130 each? I just checked because I was amazed they would still have the $10 fares left and they only have $130 or $100 fares each way (round trip $260.) Since that roundtrip price is pretty high if I were the OP I would look into the other airlines that fly into MCO where you could take DME or possibly get cheaper rental cars.

Seems like the OP is letting $$$ signs cloud the thinking. They would definitely be better off flying into Sanford or Orlando. If I remember St Augustine may be 150 miles from WDW. Just the time saved by landing Sanford or Orlando would be worth the extra money I spent to get into the other airports.
