celeste1234 Posted February 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2022 We will be docking in Port Canaveral from 1pm-9pm. I am looking at excursions but don't know if they are worth it based on time we have at that port. The options are to go to the Kennedy space centre ($125pp) or take a shuttle over to Disney or Disney springs. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted February 18, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Even though KSC closes at 5pm it might still be worth it. We've done it as a port stop and even though we docked earlier it was worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted February 18, 2022 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2022 For Disney/Orlando, you will have a longer bus ride to get there, and spend most of your time standing in lines. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrate13 Posted February 18, 2022 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2022 With those as my options it's KSC hands down. Too long a ride to Disney and as mentioned, waiting in long lines most of the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted February 18, 2022 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I'd do Disney Springs .... KSC @ $125 for a couple of hours is as bad as a Disney Park .... with the springs you'll just walk around what amounts to a nice shopping center. It will certainly be open longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrate13 Posted February 19, 2022 #6 Share Posted February 19, 2022 To each their own. I've never seen a shopping area (no matter how nice) that I would pay to go walk around.😉😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestialcruiser Posted February 19, 2022 #7 Share Posted February 19, 2022 We have a long layover in return also. We rented a car (friend has discount with work so it’s only $50 - can rent from Costco for $100). Cost of a private shuttle to the airport was $80. Thinking of going to Disney Springs. Free to get in, walk around, have a place to store the luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celeste1234 Posted February 19, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Thanks everyone. I've never been to Florida, and would love to go to Disney. But I'm not too keen on spending that kind of money to get into the park for 4 hours. I think we might go to KSC, they have a launch that day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted February 19, 2022 #9 Share Posted February 19, 2022 if there's a launch (and remember that a cancellation is FAR from unusual) save your money top deck of the ship will be some of the best views you can get ... the height of eye and a set of binoculars or a decent camera lens and you have prime viewing. Or head over Grills and still have decent view from their bar .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
