Uber/ Lyft or car rental from airbnb

[Samass82]

Hello, looking at an airbnb Regal Palms, davenport area. There will be 7 of us. Do we rent a car and pay parking( heard it is $25 a day) ? Anyone have any idea how much an uber , if we need 1 or 2, would be to the magic kingdom?

You will certainly need two cars. Go to either company's website, type in your starting and ending address (TTC), get the approximate fare, and multiply by 2.

But keep in mind it's just an approximation, as fares can and do change all the time.

Also ... what sort of car would you be renting to seat ... seven people?

Yes for 7 people so a mini van most likely. I will try to see how much uber is. I did not realize i could get an estimate of fares. May just stay at a resort with free shuttle even though it costs more! So many choices haha

One further thing to consider is luggage. You may be able to get seven people into a minivan but it's going to be difficult to get more than 3 or 4 bags into it as well. Even just carryon only is going to be tight for seven in a minivan.

Yes very true. I was thinking we may just stay at a resort. Now need to find one with a shuttle, lol

I couldn't imagine staying offsite without a car, even offsite places that say they have a shuttle never have very good service. Be sure to confirm the shuttle schedule before booking a hotel. some make you sign up the night before and only have 2 or 3 slots to pick from.

Ubering to Disney from offsite hotels and airBnBs adds up! Especially with 7 people, you would at minimum need to order two Ubers, each way - an XL (seats 5-6) and an X (seats 3-4). Depending on where your staying, each ride per Uber car could cost $15-$30.

Renting a car would be preferable for your party. A 15 or 12-passenger van or an 8-seater SUV would probably be your best bet, if you want to only rent one car. Otherwise, 2 small cars would probably be best for your party.
