Itinerary
Day 1
Private transfer day: driver contacts you before pickup, meets you at the cruise terminal pickup/parking area, and drives you directly to Orlando International Airport (MCO).
Driver call / final confirmation (30 minutes before pickup)
Driver or dispatcher will call or text approximately 30 minutes before your scheduled pickup with the driver's name, phone number, and exact meeting instructions. Use this time to gather luggage and be ready at the agreed commercial parking/pick-up area.
Tips from local experts:
- Accessibility: Let the driver know if you need any step-free assistance; they can advise the easiest route from the terminal to the vehicle.
- Comfort: Sit down while waiting in the sheltered cruise parking area if available — many pickup points have benches or covered drop-off areas.
- Communication: Save the driver's number and respond briefly to confirm you’re ready — this avoids unnecessary delays or an extra vehicle wait.
Meet & load — Cruise terminal pickup (commercial parking area)
Meet your driver at the commercial parking/pick-up area outside your cruise terminal. The driver will assist with lifting and loading luggage into the vehicle and confirm the drop-off terminal at MCO.
Tips from local experts:
- Step-free note: Use the commercial parking area closest to the terminal elevators/escalators to minimize steps — tell the driver your exact terminal and they'll guide you to the best spot.
- Luggage: Have your largest bag ready first; drivers are used to handling luggage for seniors and will load it into the vehicle—announce any fragile items.
- Timing: For cruise disembarkation, drivers normally wait for your text/call confirmation when bags are in hand. If you have mobility limitations, advise this in advance so the driver arrives as close as possible to the terminal entrance.
Private transfer (drive) — Port Canaveral to Orlando International Airport (MCO)
Direct, private drive from Port Canaveral cruise pickup area to Orlando International Airport. The vehicle is air-conditioned; driver provides a comfortable, steady ride and assists with any stops if necessary.
Tips from local experts:
- Comfort: Request a front-seat if you prefer easier in/out access; drivers are happy to accommodate seating preferences for seniors.
- Restroom & stretch: If you need a short restroom or stretch break en route, request it—drivers can make a brief, safe stop without significantly delaying your arrival.
- Route & timing: Typical drive time is ~45 minutes; traffic can add a small buffer—confirm your flight check-in time with the driver so they prioritize the best route.
Assisted drop-off & airport handover (MCO — Ground Transportation Level 1)
Driver will pull into the Orlando International Airport ground transportation commercial area (Level 1) and assist with unloading luggage. They will confirm terminal drop-off details and advise the easiest route to the check-in counters or shuttle connections.
Tips from local experts:
- Step-free access: Request a drop-off as close to your airline’s check-in curb as possible; MCO’s ground transportation area provides short, step-free routes to many terminals.
- Meet & Greet option: If you booked Meet & Greet, the driver will escort you from baggage claim to the vehicle or vice versa — mention this so they plan the exact meeting point.
- Follow-up: Keep the driver’s contact until you are safely checked in — if any follow-up is needed (missed items, extra assistance), you’ll have a direct line.
