Transport from All Star Sports Resort

[jackadam]

Hi,

We are going to Disney Florida for the 1st time in March ( 2 adults, 2 kids )

Staying at the Disney All Star Sports Resort.

We will not be hiring a car and was looking for advice on the following questions.

I know some of these questions may seem obvious to some of you but I do not want to be stuck once I get there and would prefer to know beforehand.

How easy it to get transport from the hotel to Universal ? Sea World ?

How easy is it to get transport from Universal / Sea World back to the hotel ?


We were looking to go to ' Premium Outlets ' for a bit of shopping.

What would be the best way of doing this ? Is there buses ? taxis ? Is it easy to get transport back from the Outlet ?


Thanks in Advance !!!!

Universal/IOA Sea World is easy.

From your room phone, dial "0" the night before you wish to go to Univeral/IOA.

When the Disney Operator answers, ask to be transferred to Mears.

When Mears picks up, tell them you wish to go to Universal/IOA or Sea World in the morning.

Tell them where you are staying and approximatly what time you wish to go.

They will give you a pickup time and location.

Be at the pickup location 15 minutes before they state.

When the Mears bus/van shows up pay the driver $15 PP CASH round trip (I think it is $10 for Sea World).

You will be transported to your destination. (Your driver may stop by other hotels to pick up other passengers).

Once you arrive at your destination, your driver will give you a voucher for your return trip. You can give the driver your pickup time at that time or call the phone number on the return voucher two hours before you wish to go back and they will give you a pickup time.

Be at the location where you were dropped off 15 minutes before your pickup time and you will be returned to your resort. (There may be passengers at other hotels on your bus/van).

If you prefer to use a credit card for this service, drop by the Mears desk at the airport before you get on your Magical Express bus and purchase vouchers for your trips. You still need to call the night before to make the reservations.

The Outlet malls are a little more difficult. You probably have to take a cab or get a rental car for one day.
