taxi to Atlantis?

[mouseclick1]

We have a room booked at Comfort Suites for our upcoming cruise. I have read that the taxis won't head over there until the van is filled, is this true? We are a family of four, will we have to wait for others to join us before we can leave? If so, how many people fit in the van, and do we all have to be heading to the same destination? Do they fill up pretty fast, or could we be sitting for while? Are people still paying $4 each way for the cab? Thanks in advance for answering any of these silly questions!

We just cruised Jan13th, and took a cab to Atlantis. We did wait about 10 minutes to fill a cab. It was $4.00 pp. There are plenty of people going to Atlantis so you won't wait long.

please tell me about this Renting a room at the comfort suites or
atlantis THing ive heard that instead of using dcl excursion u can rent a room or something like that and it would be less lets say four people r going to do disney trip it would cost $240.00
can u do it for less and still have the use of Atlantis, beach
and the resort ???? thanks peter

Hygiene99,
Yes, by renting a room at Atlantis or Comfort Suites(Across from Atlantis) You have full use of pools, beach area, hotel etc. If you book a Disney excurssion you CANNOT use pools. Comfort Suites runs around $175.oo AAA . You can call the 800 # for Comfort Suites to check prices and book. Glad you liked my picture's. We had a great time. Going again in October.

If we are a family of 6 (2 adults/4 kids) would we need two rooms at Comfort Inn? If so, I don't know if it would pay be to do this. I'll have to check out the DCL excursion info. I know if we go, the kids will want to do the pools as they've seen them in the Mary Kate & Ashley video. Any suggestions on which way to go?

Thanks!

Hygiene99,
I was able to get the rate of $176 for our February cruise. This is a government rate, and as a public school teacher was told by Comfort Suites I would qualify. There is also a AAA rate as well as an internet user rate, don't know if you saw these and I'm not sure wht they are.

DisneyPoly,
Are you aware that you would not be able to use the pools if you book the excursion through DCL? The only way to get access to the pools is by booking either through Comfort Suites or directly through Atlantis.

Good luck to both of you!
