What MCO ground transportation options are there?
Without a rental car, Orlando International Airport gives you six main ways to reach your hotel, and the best one depends on your group size. As MCO puts it, taxis charge per trip while shuttles charge per person, so the more people you are, the less each pays in a taxi, rideshare or private vehicle.
| Option | Typical one-way cost | Seats | Where you board at MCO |
|---|---|---|---|
| JOB private minivan, SUV or van | From $89 per vehicle | 6, 12 or 14 | Inside the terminal at baggage claim, with your name on a sign |
| Free hotel shuttle | Free, participating hotels only | Varies | Level 1 at Terminals A, B and C and the Train Station |
| LYNX local bus | $2 per ride, $4.50 all day | Public bus | Terminal A, Level 1, spaces A38 to A41 |
| Shared shuttle van | Per person; Mears Connect to Disney is $17.60 per adult plus 6% | Shared, several stops | Level 1: spaces A19 to A21, B76 to B78 and C200 to C204 |
| Taxi | About $38 to $45 to I-Drive, $52 to $68 to Disney resorts | Up to 9, same metered fare | Level 1 at Terminals A and B; Level 6 curb at Terminal C |
| Uber or Lyft | UberX about $35 to $70, UberXL about $55 to $100+ to Disney | 4 (UberX), 6 (UberXL) | Arrivals curb: Level 2 at A and B, Level 6 at C |
Fares and boarding points from MCO's ground transportation pages and Mears Connect; rideshare figures are third-party estimates and climb with surge pricing. Checked October 2026. Taking the shared shuttle? See our Mears Connect guide.
- 1 or 2 adults with light bags: the LYNX bus or a shared shuttle.
- 3 to 6 people, or kids in car seats: a private minivan or SUV, for about what an UberXL costs at busy times, with car seats on request.
- 7 to 14 people: one 12- or 14-passenger van instead of two or three cars.

How much is an Orlando airport shuttle per person for a group?
At 6 riders and from 9 up, a JOB vehicle to Disney costs less per person than a shared seat at about $18.66 per adult, down to $12.79 each in a full 14-passenger van. A shared shuttle charges every rider; JOB charges once per vehicle. Here is MCO to a Disney resort, one way, for adults.
| Riders | Mears Connect, shared | Uber or Lyft | JOB vehicle, flat price | JOB per person |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 riders | About $75 | 1 UberX, about $35 to $70 | Minivan, $99 | $24.75 |
| 6 riders | About $112 | 1 UberXL, about $55 to $100+ | Minivan, $99 | $16.50 |
| 10 riders | About $187 | 2 UberXLs, about $110 to $200+ | 12-passenger van, $159 | $15.90 |
| 14 riders | About $261 | 2 UberXLs and 1 UberX, about $145 to $270+ | 14-passenger van, $179 | $12.79 |
Mears totals use the $17.60 adult fare plus the 6% fuel surcharge; children 3 to 9 pay $14.30 plus the surcharge. The cruise math works the same way: fourteen riders to Port Canaveral in our 14-passenger van pay $17.79 each, against $29.99 per person on the Go Port shuttle or $45 per guest on Disney Cruise Line's bus. For the full picture, see MCO to Disney options compared.

- Terminal C: baggage claim and the airport's Meet & Greet Area are both on Level 6. More in our MCO Terminal C pickup guide.
- MCO suggests about 20 minutes from landing to the curb, or 40 with checked bags. Late flight? We adjust your pickup to your flight's new time (send us your flight number). We drive by reservation (call or WhatsApp to check your time).

- Meet and greet inside the terminal, with a name sign at baggage claim.
- Car seats and boosters on request: we carry seats and boosters for each child's age and size, and they are priced when you book. More on our car service with car seats.

Is there free transportation from Orlando airport to my hotel?
Only at some hotels. Participating hotels run free shuttles from Level 1 of Terminals A, B and C and the Train Station, and Universal's SuperStar Shuttle serves Universal hotels from Terminal A (spaces A30 to A33) and Terminal C (C282 to C283). Walt Disney World does not include airport transportation with a resort stay.
If your hotel has no shuttle, or you are 10 to 14 people headed to a Kissimmee or ChampionsGate vacation home, a private van is the simplest ride: one pickup, no stops at other hotels, and groceries before check-in. Still choosing where to stay? See hotels with a shuttle to Universal, and the Disney World transportation guide.
Rides back to MCO
Book your ride to the airport with your arrival. MCO recommends reaching security 2 hours before departure, so from a Disney or Kissimmee hotel, plan to leave about 3 hours before a domestic flight. Drop-off is on the Departures level: Level 3 at Terminals A and B, Level 2 at Terminal C. Staying at Disney? See Disney World to MCO.
Coming off a cruise? Disney Cruise Line lists 11:15 AM as the earliest MCO flight on debarkation day, and Carnival's transfers need flights no earlier than 12:50 PM. See Port Canaveral to Orlando airport, or our baggage hold for a later flight.

Frequently asked questions
Landing at MCO?
Call, text or WhatsApp us with your flight, where you're staying and your group size. We reply with a flat price.
What is the cheapest MCO ground transportation?
The LYNX bus, at $2 per ride from Terminal A, Level 1, serving the Convention Center, SeaWorld, Downtown Orlando and the Florida Mall. For groups, a private vehicle often costs less per person than shuttle seats: 14 riders pay $12.79 each to Disney in our 14-passenger van.
Is a shuttle cheaper than a taxi or Uber from MCO?
For 1 or 2 people, usually yes, because shuttles charge per person. Taxis and rideshares charge per trip, and an MCO taxi carries up to 9 people for the same metered fare, so groups of 4 or more often pay less with a taxi, rideshare or private vehicle.
Where do I meet my JOB driver at MCO?
Inside the terminal at baggage claim, where your driver holds a sign with your name. Baggage claim is on Level 2 in Terminals A and B and on Level 6 in Terminal C.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We adjust your pickup to your flight's new time (send us your flight number). If your plans change, call or text 407-837-5656.
Do you provide car seats for airport pickups?
Yes. Tell us each child's age and weight when you book, and we bring the right seat. We carry seats and boosters for each child's age and size, and they are priced when you book.
Can we stop for groceries on the way from the airport?
Yes. Ask for a grocery stop when you book, and your driver will stop at a store on the way to your hotel or vacation home (arranged when you book).
Do you pick up at Orlando Sanford Airport (SFB)?
Yes. At Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB), pre-arranged rides pick up directly across the street from baggage claim areas 1 to 3. Rides from SFB are priced per vehicle.
Do your drivers speak Spanish?
Yes. JOB has Spanish-speaking drivers, so your whole ride can be in Spanish. Hablamos español.
