I do the journey between Formosa Gardens and MCO frequently. 528 CAN be quicker but after a long flight 417 is definitely more relaxed and if there is traffic can be quicker as well. I would stick with that way as the time difference is pretty minimal anyway.

Will definitely come this way again and recommend it to others.
Thank you all for your help!

Most DIBB Florida residents do buy their own transponders which are pre-loaded with $$$$ but they have to link it on-line with their car tag. As we leave our phones on flight mode all holiday I didn't want to start going on-line to link them. However some other Dibber has rung VTP and they have confirmed that it automatically links presumably picking up the CC that you lodged with them.

Also there have been no reports on here that anyone has been "double-dipped" on their CC for using VTP. There were some concerns that Sunpass would also charge but, so far, nobody has.

VTP seems like a no brainer.
