Arrival Logistics

Airport Pickup at Orlando MCO

Where do I find my driver at Orlando International Airport (MCO)? +

Your MCO Disney Transportation driver will meet you inside the terminal at baggage claim, holding a personalized sign with your name clearly displayed. You don't need to step outside or search for a curbside pickup — we come to you.

We will also send you a text message notification when your driver is on-site and ready. For international arrivals, your driver will wait at the international arrivals meetup area.

📍 Tip: Look for Level 2 Baggage Claim in Terminal A or B depending on your airline. We'll confirm the exact meeting point when you receive your booking confirmation.
What happens if my flight to Orlando is delayed or cancelled? +

MCO Disney Transportation monitors all inbound flights to MCO in real time. If your flight is delayed or cancelled, there is no extra charge for standard delays — we automatically adjust your pickup timing.

If your flight is cancelled or delayed by more than one hour, please notify us via text or WhatsApp at 407-435-9720. We will coordinate your updated arrival as efficiently as possible and do everything we can to accommodate your new schedule.

Do you service Sanford Airport (SFB) as well? +

Yes. In addition to Orlando International Airport (MCO), we provide private transfers from Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) to Disney World, Universal Studios, Port Canaveral, and all major Orlando destinations.

SFB is approximately 45 minutes north of Disney World. Our fixed rates from SFB start from $190 per vehicle. See our full Rates page for all SFB pricing.

How early should I schedule my airport pickup for a departure flight? +

We recommend scheduling your departure pickup at least 3 hours before your domestic flight and 3.5–4 hours before an international flight. The drive from Disney World to MCO typically takes 30–45 minutes depending on traffic.

Your driver will arrive at your resort or hotel at the scheduled time. We account for check-in luggage and TSA screening time in our scheduling recommendations.

Resort Transfers

Disney World Transportation

Why should I choose MCO Disney Transportation instead of a shared shuttle? +

MCO Disney Transportation provides private, direct Disney World transportation designed specifically for families and groups — not shared rides that stop at multiple resorts.

  • No multiple stops: You go straight to your resort — no shared shuttle delays or detours to other properties.
  • Fixed pricing per vehicle: One price for your whole group, not per person. A family of 4 pays the same as a couple.
  • Free car seats: Certified car seats and booster seats included at no extra cost.
  • Professional drivers: Uniformed, background-checked chauffeurs who assist with luggage from the terminal to your resort door.
⚡ MCO Disney Pro-Tip: Shared shuttles often take 90+ minutes due to multiple resort stops and wait times for the bus to fill. With MCO Disney Transportation, most families reach their Disney World Resort in 35–45 minutes of leaving the airport.
Which Disney World resorts do you serve? +

We provide service to all Walt Disney World Resort properties, including:

  • Disney's Contemporary Resort & Bay Lake Tower
  • Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
  • Disney's Polynesian Village Resort
  • Disney's Wilderness Lodge & Villas
  • Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge & Villas
  • Disney's Beach Club Resort & Villas
  • Disney's Yacht Club Resort
  • Disney's BoardWalk Inn & Villas
  • Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort
  • Disney's Coronado Springs Resort
  • Disney's Port Orleans — Riverside & French Quarter
  • Disney's Old Key West Resort
  • Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort
  • Disney's Pop Century Resort
  • Disney's Art of Animation Resort
  • Disney's All-Star Resorts (Movies, Music, Sports)
  • Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Hotels
Can you transfer me between Disney World and Universal Studios? +

Absolutely. We offer direct inter-resort transfers between Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort (including all Universal on-site hotels and International Drive hotels). This is a popular option for guests splitting their vacation between both parks.

Inter-resort transfers start from $90 per vehicle for up to 3 passengers. See our Rates page for full pricing.

Can we stop for groceries on the way to our Disney resort? +

Yes! A 15-minute grocery stop at Publix Lake Cay Commons is available as a convenient add-on for just $25. This is one of our most popular options, especially for families staying in Disney Vacation Club villas or vacation rentals with kitchen facilities.

Just add the grocery stop option when booking or let us know in your reservation notes.

Do you offer round-trip transportation to Disney World? +

Yes — and we reward you for it. Round-trip bookings receive a 10% discount off the combined one-way total. Book both your arrival transfer from MCO and your departure transfer back to the airport in one go and the discount is applied automatically.

Round-trip bookings also make it easy to coordinate both pickups with the same experienced driver who already knows your family's needs.

Cruise Port Transfers

Port Canaveral Transportation

Do you provide private transfers to Port Canaveral? +

Yes. MCO Disney Transportation offers private transfers to and from all Port Canaveral cruise terminals, serving all major cruise lines including:

  • 🏰 Disney Cruise Line
  • 👑 Royal Caribbean International
  • 🎉 Carnival Cruise Line
  • ⚓ Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL)
  • 🌊 MSC Cruises
  • 💎 Celebrity Cruises
  • 👑 Princess Cruises
  • All other cruise lines departing from Port Canaveral

We pick up from MCO Airport, all Disney World resorts, Universal Studios, and any Orlando area hotel. Port Canaveral transfers start from $165 per vehicle.

How far is Port Canaveral from Orlando and Disney World? +

Port Canaveral is approximately 60–75 miles east of Orlando. Drive time is typically 50–70 minutes depending on your pickup location and traffic conditions.

  • MCO Airport → Port Canaveral: ~55–65 minutes
  • Disney World → Port Canaveral: ~65–75 minutes
  • Universal Studios → Port Canaveral: ~55–65 minutes

We recommend booking your transfer to arrive at the terminal at least 2 hours before your ship's departure to allow time for check-in and boarding.

Do you offer post-cruise return transfers from Port Canaveral back to Orlando? +

Yes. We provide return transfers from Port Canaveral back to MCO Airport, Disney World, Universal Studios, and any Orlando area hotel. Your driver will monitor cruise disembarkation and be ready when you arrive at the terminal exit.

Booking round-trip (outbound + return) saves you 10% on the total. Contact us to bundle both legs of your journey.

⚡ Pro-Tip: We recommend booking your return transfer to MCO at least 4 hours after your scheduled ship arrival to account for disembarkation wait times and US Customs.

Peace of Mind

Safety & Car Seats

Do you provide car seats for infants and toddlers? +

Yes. MCO Disney Transportation provides sanitized, certified car seats and booster seats at no additional charge for all ages. Our drivers will install them for your convenience ahead of your arrival.

Please notify us of your children's ages and approximate weights when booking so we can ensure the correct seat type is ready and installed before your pickup.

⚠️ Important: While our drivers install the seats, parents and guardians are responsible for inspecting the installation and confirming it is correct and secure before the vehicle moves.
Are MCO Disney Transportation drivers background-checked and licensed? +

Yes. All MCO Disney Transportation drivers pass thorough background checks prior to employment and are fully licensed to operate commercial passenger vehicles in the state of Florida.

MCO Disney Transportation, operated by Orange Tours and Transportation, is fully licensed and insured as a transportation provider. All vehicles carry appropriate commercial insurance coverage.

How do I know the vehicle will be clean and well-maintained? +

Every MCO Disney Transportation vehicle is cleaned and inspected before each trip. We maintain a late-model fleet of premium vehicles — Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans and SUVs — that are regularly serviced and maintained to the highest safety standards.

Read what our customers say on TripAdvisor — cleanliness and professionalism are among the top-rated aspects of our service.
