RCLFan Posted July 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2005 We are sailing MOS on Sept. 4 - 11. We need to get to the Budget Rental office in Cape Canaveral and then drive to Orlando to catch flight at 12:30 p.m. As Platinum Members, what is the earliest we will be able to dis-embark? Thanks.

steve20832 Posted July 28, 2005 #2 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I think you are better off catching a taxi or shuttle van to take you directly to the airport. You are adding approx. 45 minutes to pick up and drop off the rental car, waiting in lines, filling out paperwork, extra time to catch shuttle to the airport, etc.. You are going to push the time to the limit. Just my opinion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzw Posted July 28, 2005 #3 Share Posted July 28, 2005 we carried our own luggage off and waited at the dismebarkation exit at 6:45am, we were the first people there and walked off of the ship at 7:05am. this was on the NOS two weeks ago..

We just came back at the end of June, but I didn't pay attention to Taxis and Shuttles, because we extended our stay, and we were not in any particular hurry.

Peggy13 Posted July 28, 2005 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Recently on the Mariner and had a 12:30 p.m. flight out of Orlando. We booked Art's Shuttle ($85 for six of us), we were the third group off the ship and at the airport by 9:45 - plenty of time before our flight.

You would have to check with RCCL about the cost of the shuttle. There was another thread here on CC about another company doing a shuttle for less $ than RCCL to and from the port/airport but I can't find it at the moment.

steve20832 Posted July 29, 2005 #9 Share Posted July 29, 2005 This company http://www.aceluxury.com/portcanaveral.htm charges $80 for the car (not per person) I would imagine every other transportation company charges something close to that price. If you break it down per person and have 4 people in the car ($20/person), it might be less than RCCL shuttle. I'm not sure how much one way is for RCCL shuttle. Did you check the price with RCCL? I don't know the company above, it's just a link I found from Google so you might want to search for "Port Canaveral Orlando Airport shuttle" and do some price shopping.
