Transfers cost/recommendations?

[tinkertaylor05]

Hi I'm still thinking about flights for next oct 2013, I know if we fly into MCO we can use magical express but a lot of flights seem to go into Sanford. I don't drive so car hire is not an option, has anyone else used transfers from Sanford? How much should we budget for these and can anyone recommend any companies?

It's likely we'll fly indirect to MCO just trying to cover as many angles as possible

Transfer to where ?

Do you transfer to a Disney resort first, or offsite, or to port canaveral direct, or ... ?

It will be very difficult to guesstimate the cost if we don't know where you're going

Whoops sorry, transfer to wdw staying onsite and return transfer from port canaveral.

Well I assume you are going to WDW as you are thinking of using Magical Express..

I can't recommend a taxi/shuttle but this should give you some estimate of the cost..it also stops at a store to pick up supplies..

from Airport (MCO) Disney Port Canaveral Airport (MCO) - $305.00 plus a 20% auto tip as its international, they don't have Sanford on the list but you can contact them but i thin it would be around £75 more so around $400+ with tip
Am unable to post site but if you nip over to the DIBB its one of there sponsors and we have used many times

Hi,
We're also going next Oct, 2013, with no car and flying to Sanford.
I have been looking and am going to allow about $300 return for a private transfer, although, we have booked with Thomson (going on the Dreamliner ) and they have said they can add transfers for £35 return per person, and that's on a coach with other people.
As there are 7 of us, I think we are going to go for the private transfer, as then there will be no drop offs along the way, and we are travelling with a nearly 3 year, and 5 and a half year old, so we are just going to want to get there as quickly as possible.
Our transfers will be from Sanford to Vista Cay, which is quite near Sea World.
Hope that helps a little.
Happy planning.

I think that's Florida Magical Tours you're thinking of. Haven't used them myself but have seen them mentioned on the DIBB alot lately.
