Shuttle Service

[curtsfan]

Hi Everyone

My family & I are sailing aboard the Mariner of the Sea on 4/18/24.  My daughter who is a Florida resident needs transportation from the Cruise Port to the Brightline Train at Orlando Airport post cruise.  Any suggestions for a reliable shuttle service?  RCCL won’t sell us a transfer because she isn’t on a flight.

Uber

If she needs to get from the cruise port to MCO, I would suggest Cruise Control Transportation ($25 + tip) or Cotrans ($30 + tip), if I remember the prices accurately.

 

Cruise Control Transportation saved my hide big time last month.

Just give them your flight number. Or any flight leaving MCO after 1 pm. 

Uber or Lyft would be expensive.

Cortrans was great we left a bag on the bus and he came back after dropping others off.   He found us in the skycap line outside and came back yelling to us.

I've used Cortrans and Goport, both cheaper than Royals transfer.

I just used Cruise Control last month and you are correct, it is $25 per person.  They were fine as far as service was concerned.

I need transportation from MCO to a hotel in Port Canaveral. I used to rent a car. Is there a better option? Solo..

Check out Cruise Control's website.  They can assist you.

I haven’t cruised in 4 1/2 years, and am unfamiliar with cruise control. I’ll try to check it out. Thank you.

I'm scheduled to use Cruise Control in a few weeks...I can give a first hand report then. Many services get great reviews so im sure they are all good

Thanks! I’ve not heard of it before, so I’d appreciate your review. If it is $25, and reliable, that would be much better than me renting a car.

Cruise control offers shared rides and individual shuttles. Shared is about 25 bucks . If your taking the personal shuttle a bit more I believe

+1 to Cruise Control Transportation.

 

No, I get nothing from recommending them.

 

Nice to know others have been treated well too.

I have 5 adults and 1 child. Cruise control charges 25*6 = $150 for one way. Is there cheaper option from MCO to Port Canaveral?

Renting a car one way might be less expensive. Need to get a mini van ..but you'll need to secure a ride back to MCO

For 6 people that is about as cheap as you are going to find.  If you used uber you'd need two if you had even a normal amount of luggage.

Sailing out of P C has many pluses ...but if you fly into MCO managing the transfer issue can be a big issue

Does Uber XL seat 6 passengers? Everyone will just have carry on

Yeah that should be no problem. I'd be concerned if you were heavy packers but with just carry-ons I'd expect that to be no problem.
