Walt Disney World by bus
Disney's Magical Express has proven to be a very popular option for guests staying at Disney resort hotels; it provides free transportation to and from the airport. Be sure to book service ahead of time, though!
The Disney Cruise Line provides a similar bus service for their passengers, between the Walt Disney World resort hotels and their terminal at Port Canaveral. The one-way fare is $35 per person, although it's included in the price if you book a land-and-sea vacation package.
If you're not staying at a Disney resort, or aren't coming in via Orlando International or Disney Cruise Line, you do have some other choices. Mears Transportation is the big dog in the area; in fact, Disney contracts with them to run the Magical Express and the Disney Cruise Line buses. But they also run their own shuttle buses and town cars that can take you to any of the local attractions or hotels.

LYNX is a public bus service of the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority. Nine LYNX routes provide service between Walt Disney World and the surrounding area. All except 56 travel via I-4 and Downtown Disney and serve the Downtown Disney West Side Transfer Center. Routes 300?305 are commuter routes with very limited service.
Regular routes:
- Route 50, from the Transportation and Ticket Center, adjacent to the Magic Kingdom parking lot, to SeaWorld and downtown Orlando. This route serves as WDW's primary public transit connection to International Drive , the main tourism corridor within the city of Orlando.
- Route 56, from the Transportation and Ticket Center to the Osceola Square Mall in Kissimmee.
- Route 111, from the Transportation and Ticket Center to the Florida Mall and Orlando International Airport. Note: Operating once every half-hour, this route is a viable option for getting from the airport to the resort and back, but only for travelers with patience; the trip lasts roughly an hour and ten minutes. For those who wish to visit the Florida Mall, this is the most direct option.
Commuter routes:
- Route 300, from Downtown Disney to downtown Orlando.
- Route 301, from Animal Kingdom to Pine Hills.
