Tampa to Disney Limo

[jeff318]

We have already booked a hotel which can provide transportation to the cruise terminal (La Quinta Inn in Tampa), but we are trying to find an economical solution for transportation to the remainder of our trip... 7 members of our party are planning on travelling to Walt Disney World for a few days after the cruise, and two will be returning to the Tampa airport to fly home. One option we have found is Payless Transportation (just google it), which will provide a van for nine passengers from the cruise terminal to disney for $180 plus an additional $50 to stop at the Tampa airport.

Has anyone heard of Payless Transportation, and does anyone have another possible solution or solutions to our logistical dilemma?

We have also looked into car rentals, but it is difficult to find a van rental that will fit seven people plus a weeks' worth of luggage, and then we would also have to pay for two terminal to airport transfers from Carnival.

I am a little confused...you need trans. for 7 from Tampa, or Tampa Int'l Airport? If from TPA ( AIRPORT)...your best bet is to squish the 7 of you and your luggage into a van for a 1 day rental from TPA that you drop off at the Dolphin resort. I believe Nat'l rents there. Then do the same for your return. It is easy enough to drop the car off after you have settled into your resort, use the free WDW transportation and then pick the car up at the Dolphin and drop back at TPA.
We have done this from MCO and have had it cost less than $100 for the 2 single day rentals. Check www.mousesavers.com to see if there are any codes you may be able to apply to reduce your rental rate.

no, the Tampa cruise terminal, where the cruise terminal docks in Tampa -- not the airport.
