Frequently Asked Questions

Orlando Melbourne International Airport (MLB) is the closest commercial airport to Cape Canaveral by road, about 28 miles and 55 minutes of driving without traffic via SR A1A, US 1 and SR 404. The next closest is Orlando International Airport (MCO) at 47 miles. Compare flights into each, since the nearest airport is not always the cheapest or the one with nonstop service from your group's home city.
Port Canaveral is about 2 road miles from Cape Canaveral, roughly 5 minutes of driving without traffic. The nearest airport to Cape Canaveral is MLB, 28 miles away, and the Canaveral Port Authority puts MCO about 45 minutes, MLB about 40 minutes and SFB about 1 hour from the port. Boarding times are set by your cruise line, so flying in the day before and booking the cruise shuttle for the morning removes the risk of a delayed flight.
Orlando International Airport (MCO) is about 47 road miles from Cape Canaveral, roughly 1 hour of driving in free-flowing traffic. Weekday rush hours and holiday weekends add time, and a group transfer also needs time for baggage claim and loading, so schedule the pickup at least 45 minutes after the flight lands. The carrier's dispatch tracks the flight number you give at booking.
The carrier's dispatch monitors your flight in real time using the flight number you provide at booking, so the driver's pickup time is adjusted automatically when a flight is delayed. You do not need to call from the plane. The first 60 minutes of waiting past your scheduled landing time is included in airport transfer pricing, and extended waiting beyond that is billed at $50-$75 per hour depending on vehicle size.
Airport transfer vehicles range from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger motorcoaches, with 25-passenger minibuses and 35-passenger coaches in between. Groups larger than one motorcoach travel in multiple vehicles with coordinated dispatch, so a group of 10 or 200 can move on the same schedule. Size the vehicle for luggage as well as headcount, since cruise and vacation travelers often bring 1-2 bags per person.
Charter carriers generally do not supply child car seats, so families bring their own. Tell the carrier at booking how many car seats you are bringing so they can confirm which vehicle seats have belts that work with your seats and allow time to install them before departure. Motorcoaches built after 2016 have lap-shoulder belts at every seat, while older coaches may have lap-only belts or none.
