The FANCIEST Way to Get to Disney World from Orlando Airport Is Cheaper Than You Think

Disney4me · July 29

So, you’ve just landed at the Orlando International Airport (MCO). How are we getting to Disney World?

When you’re thinking of your transport options, you’ve got the classic options like taxis, Uber/Lyft, or even the “dreaded” airport shuttle and we haven’t even considered renting a car. But you’ve got another option to consider (no I’m not talking about the Mears Connect bus). Have you considered booking an SUV? Hear me out now. Let’s talk about it!

Now, why would I talk about booking an SUV from the Orlando Airport? Well, let’s go over the reasons why you might want to consider it!

This car service we’re talking about is through Mears (yes, the same as the Mears Connect bus). Now, I know, I know, the words “SUV” and “cheaper” usually don’t go hand-in-hand, but there’s a reason we’re suggesting this one. For about $160, you can book a private SUV that will whisk you and your family of four straight to your Disney resort. When you compare that to the $64 you’d spend on the Mears Connect bus for four people, you can start to see why this is a viable option.

Picture this: you’re met at baggage claim by a friendly driver. No more dragging your bags around the terminal while trying to herd your kids through the crowds. Your driver will load up your luggage, and yes, they’ve got car seats if you need them. It’s a pretty stress-free way start to your vacation.

Also, there’s something to be said about the comfort factor. You know that after a long flight, the last thing you want is to squeeze into a crowded bus. A private SUV offers plenty of space for everyone to stretch out and relax. Plus, you have to admit there’s something undeniably fancy about rolling up to your Disney World Resort hotel in a sleek, stylish ride.

Speaking of that comfort factor, unlike the Mears Connect bus, where you might have to wait for it to arrive and then make multiple stops at different hotels, your SUV takes you STRAIGHT to your resort. There will be no detours, no delays, just a smooth, direct ride to your destination. You’ll definitely be checking into your hotel while the bus folks are still en route.

“But is it really worth the extra cost?” you might be asking. Well, when you break it down, the price difference isn’t as steep as it seems. For just about $90 more, you’re getting a ton of perks. You’ll have personalized service, no waiting, direct transport, and a super comfy ride and we haven’t even brought up all the time you’ll save. That is time that you can spend exploring the parks, enjoying the resort, or grabbing a Mickey-shaped snack.
