Travel between MCO and Cape Canaveral

[roberttz]

Hi,

Traveling next week to MCO for a short cruise from Cape Canaveral.

Just two ppl.

Flying in the night before the cruise to MCO and have a hotel near MCO.

I plan to take free shuttle to/from hotel to the airport.

 

My check-in at the port is noon so I am thinking of just taking one of the shuttle on the morning of cruise to Cape Canaveral. Any recommendation?

 

On the way back, ship docs 8 AM. I am hoping to be out by 10:00.

My flight is at 7:45 PM that gives plenty of time to do something.

For this part I am thinking of renting a car.

What is the closest car rental company? I have been to CC before and remember taking 10 minute shuttle.

 

Any other recommendations?

 

Thanks,

Robert

Cortrans Shuttle to port.

Cortrans, Coco Beach shuttle or Travelynx for shared shuttle service - fare start at about $20 per person.

 

You could use a one-way car rental both ways - all of the major agencies in PC/Cocoa Beach offer free shuttle service to/from the port.

 

Have a great cruise! :D

We've used Avis many times, with good results.

We used AA Access Transportation (shuttletoportcanaveral.com) when we disembarked on Jan 7th. The driver was prompt and we made it to MCO in great time. We ended up using Uber to get from MCO to Port Canaveral due to a stop over between.

Thank you all.

I reserved shuttle on Cortrans before the cruise.

They actually pick us up right from the hotel near the airport.

Their reservation system was good, filled out the form and I got email with confirmation. (Payment to be done on the day of travel with cash or CC).

 

 

I will have to book the rental car on the day we come back.

I would like to do air boat tours and may be spend some time at Cocoa beach since we have 8+ hours there before the flight.

One of the link provided above has a section on shore trips... http://cruiseportcanaveral.us/shoretrips/
