Hiya-Port is only about an hours drive from Orlando, dead easy too!!
Car park right opposite terminal, we left ours there all ok!(22/2 07!)There is a charge though(think $10 per day)
The cruise was FAB-Enjoy!

yes. as stated above the car park is secure and just over the road from the terminal:) Its a great drive down from Orlando, and very easy to find too. The driver can drop you all at the terminal with your luggage and then go and park the car, or you can all stay in the car and park first. :)

You'll love it!:)

Hi there,

If you are going for a week you may be interested in booking an overnight with parking. There are loads of hotels around the port. We stayed at Radisson Resort on the Port before our cruise and they have a shuttle to take you and pick you up. There are other cheaper hotels where you could get a taxi and leave your car there FOC. Otherwise Disney charge $10 a day for carparking.

Thanks for the info!

I have just gone ahead and booked the cruise, do I need to book a car parking space in advance or do we just turn up and hope to get a space?

Have fun planning!:)

The car park looks huge so I wouldnt have thought you would have a problem. I am sure you just pay at the gate. Disney has its own Terminal so the carparking will be soley theirs too.

Just confirming you do not need to book the car park, and you may also be interested to know that you can pay by credit card if you wish.

FYI : There is a carpark directly opposite the DCL terminal gates - this is not the secure one, but is a useful place to park and wait if you have arrived a litle early..:blush: and is useful for anyone intending to book in at port opening 10.15am, to ensure they get the earliest boarding time (normally around 11.45am).
