Orlando Airport Transportation FAQ: Prices, Pickups, Vans and Cruises

A private ride from MCO to a Walt Disney World resort is $99 in a minivan and $179 in a 14-passenger Ford Transit, one way, for the whole vehicle. Book your arrival and return together to save a step, and see every route on our rates page.

Per vehicle, so the more people ride, the less each one pays. A full 14-passenger van from MCO to Disney comes to $12.79 each, while the Mears Connect shared shuttle is $17.60 per adult plus a 6% fuel surcharge, about $18.66.

Tolls and airport fees are included, and the fare covers the whole vehicle, not each seat. Meet and greet inside the terminal is quoted with your ride, car seats are priced when you book, and the grocery stop is arranged when you book.

No. Gratuity is optional, so the fare you are quoted is the fare you pay, and a tip is simply your choice if your driver made the day easier.

As soon as your flights or sailing dates are set, especially if you need a 12- or 14-passenger van. Our minimum notice is set by availability (call or WhatsApp to check a last-minute ride).

Call, text or WhatsApp 407-837-5656, email sales@jobtransportationofflorida.com, or book online. We accept the payment options shown at booking, and rides that start at Port Canaveral are paid ahead because the Port's rules require fares to be pre-arranged and pre-paid.

Your flight numbers or ship name, the number of adults and children, each child's age for car seats, your bag count and any grocery stop you want. That lets us match the vehicle and seats to your family.

Ask us about cancellation terms before you confirm. If your flight or cruise changes, call or text 407-837-5656 as soon as you know and we will work with you on a new time.

Inside the terminal, holding a sign with your name. In Terminals A and B that is the Level 2 baggage claim, and in Terminal C it is the Meet & Greet Area on Level 6, the meeting point the airport designates. Terminal by terminal: our MCO ground transportation guide.

MCO suggests allowing about 20 minutes after landing, or about 40 minutes if you checked bags. There is no need to rush: your driver meets you inside, so you are not hunting for a car at the curb.

We adjust your pickup to your flight's new time. Always include your flight number when you book.

Yes. Sanford's pickup zone for pre-arranged rides is directly across the street from Baggage Claim areas 1 to 3. See Sanford airport to Disney World for the most popular route.

We count back from your departure time: MCO recommends reaching the security checkpoint 2 hours before your flight, and we add the drive time and a traffic cushion. Tell us your flight and we suggest the pickup time.

No. Disney confirms that airport transportation is not included with a Disney Resort hotel stay, and the Sunshine Flyer merged into Mears Connect on August 1, 2023. Your choices today are the Mears Connect shared shuttle, Disney's Minnie Van (Deluxe guests only), rideshare, a rental car or a private ride like ours.

Usually 30 to 60 minutes on the Mears Connect shared shuttle, depending on your hotel, traffic and the number of stops. A private JOB ride makes no other hotel stops and goes straight to your resort. Full details: MCO to Disney World.

Only if you are 6 or fewer. Disney's Minnie Van fits up to 6 passengers and up to 2 car seats, and its airport service is limited to Deluxe, Deluxe Villa and Club Level guests, so a group of 7 to 14 is better off together in one JOB Ford Transit.

Yes. MCO to Universal and International Drive hotels starts at $89, or $165 for 14 passengers, and we also drive to Epic Universe, Universal's fourth theme park, which opened May 22, 2025. See MCO to Universal Studios.

Yes. We can stop at a store on the way to your resort, vacation home or the cruise port, so you arrive with water, snacks and diapers already in hand (arranged when you book). Ask for the stop when you book.

About 42 to 45 miles, or roughly 45 to 60 minutes by road on SR 528, the Beachline Expressway. MCO lists the route as 42 miles and the Port says the drive is about 45 minutes.

A minivan is $159 and a 14-passenger Ford Transit van $249, per vehicle, in either direction. Booked full, that van comes to $17.79 each, less than the $29.99 per person Go Port shared shuttle. Details: MCO to Port Canaveral.

Yes, at every cruise terminal. Since October 1, 2025, the Port requires every commercial vehicle to be registered and permitted with at least $1 million in auto liability insurance, and it allows meet and greet only in designated areas (curbside at Cruise Terminal 8). We carry $1,000,000 in liability insurance. See Port Canaveral transportation.

It depends on your ship. Port Canaveral's schedule assigns each ship a terminal (the table on this page), but some ships appear under two terminals and assignments can change, so check your cruise documents. Give us your ship name when you book and we will drop you at the right terminal.

It depends on your cruise line: 11:15 AM or later with Disney Cruise Line, no earlier than 12:50 PM on Carnival's transfers, and at least five hours after arrival with MSC. Most ships return between 6:00 and 7:00 AM; then add the 45 to 60 minute drive and MCO's 2-hour security recommendation. See Port Canaveral to Orlando airport.

Yes, for any cruise line. Disney resorts to Port Canaveral starts at $179, or $269 for 14 passengers ($19.21 each), while Disney Cruise Line's own motorcoach costs $45 per guest each way. See Port Canaveral to Disney World.

We pick up you and your bags at the cruise terminal, keep the luggage with us while you visit Kennedy Space Center, Cocoa Beach or Jetty Park, then drive you to MCO for your flight. Kennedy Space Center prohibits luggage and other large bags, and our baggage hold starts at $249 for up to several hours. See Port Canaveral luggage storage.

No. Your JOB fare is fixed when you book, while rideshare prices from the port can surge 1.5 to 2 times between about 7:30 and 9:30 AM on debarkation mornings.

Our minivan and our Ford Expedition and Chevrolet Suburban SUVs each seat up to 6 passengers, and our Ford Transit vans seat 12 or 14. One van keeps a group of up to 14 together on one flat fare, with no splitting between cars.

Capacity depends on the vehicle (see the table on this page). Tell us how many suitcases, carry-ons, strollers and car seats you are bringing when you book, and we will match the vehicle to your load.

We can send two vehicles, each at its own flat fare. Ask when you book so we can confirm both are free for your date. See our private group van shuttle.

Yes. We carry seats and boosters for each child's age and size, and they are priced when you book. Tell us each child's age and weight when you book so the right seats are ready. More: Orlando car service with car seats.

Whatever the rule for a given vehicle, our standard is a proper car seat or booster for every young child, following NHTSA guidance. Florida's child-restraint law covers children 5 and younger (Fla. Stat. 316.613), and how it applies depends on how the statutes classify a vehicle (Fla. Stat. 316.003). This is general information, not legal advice.

NHTSA advises keeping a child in a booster until the adult seat belt fits, with the lap belt across the upper thighs and the shoulder belt across the chest, and keeping children in the back seat at least through age 12. Not sure which seat fits? Tell us your child's age and weight and we will bring the right one.

Yes. Ask for a Spanish-speaking driver when you book any airport, Disney, Universal or Port Canaveral ride.
