Will I need a SunPass? How many tolls should I expect?

[BYC]

We will have a rental car.
We will drive from MCO to Disney.
Disney to Universal and back.
Disney to Busch Gardens and back.
Disney to Aquatica and back.
Disney to Seaworld and back.
Disney to airport.

Should I expect a lot of tolls, and if so, long lines at the tolls?

You don't need a SunPass, all the parks you're gonna visit are off of I-4 and it's not a toll road. You should only hit tolls to and from the airport.

Well thank you! That solves one problem! I love these boards! There is always someone who knows the answer no matter what is asked! I appreciate it!

You can expect long lines at the toll plazas on the weekends. You will need exact change.

Use the airport north exit and you won't need exact change.

From airport north exit go left at first light, then at next light go left and left again to get on the expressway (528; Beach Line) and you pay only one $1. toll.

To retrace your steps back to the airport this way (I-4 East to 528) get off 528 at its exit 9 (Tradeport), left and cross under, get into middle lane, right onto McCoy.

Many of Florida's toll plazas have the cash lanes over on the right down a ramp. Watch the overhead signs to see which lanes are for what. The EZ-Pass used in the northeast quadrant of the U.S. is not currently honored.

Most of the toll plazas in Centeral FL are not manned on the weekends now as a cost cutting measure so you may have the same problem on the 528.

Fill an empty Airborne tube with quarters and leave it in the car during your stay. Exact change at your fingertips.
