No need to use the 429 just keep going along the 192. If going to AK take a left onto Sherbeth road then right at the traffic lights. For all the rest just travel to world drive and follow the signs.
If using Sat Nav set to avoid tolls.

We have used pennies before, actually paid the whole toll with them at one of the unmanned ones. Its a good way to get rid of them along with the self services checkouts at Walmart..

That must have taken ages as you should put the coins in one at a time

Nope, just dropped 10 at a time in the catcher in fairly quickly succession although the machines have occasionally missed a Cople here and there.

Hey all,

Just reading through this thread and have seen some super helpful comments!

One question from me though, is it right that the 'manned' toll booths offer change for up to $20? I think I saw on a youtube video, someone was given a roll of coins (presumably 1/4's) and they just kept this in the car. Is there anywhere at the airport (MCO) that offers the chance to get change at all?

Thanks

Rick

Any manned booth. As soon as you leave the airport the first booth is manned.
