FAQ
Quick, confident answers to the questions guests ask most.
When is the best time to visit?
Late January to early March, or mid-September to mid-November, for milder weather and lighter crowds.
Do I need a car?
Not if you stay at Disney and focus on its parks. Yes if you want Universal, the coast or day trips; rideshare covers the gaps.
How do I get from MCO to my hotel?
Mears Connect shuttle (24/7, (407) 423-5566), rideshare or taxi from the terminal curb, or a car service. See Getting Around.
How many days do I need?
Plan about one day per park, plus a rest day for every three or four park days.
Is Epic Universe included with a Universal ticket?
It needs its own ticket and there is no park-to-park access, so give it a full day.
Can I get into Sorekara?
It's fully committed; join the Tock waitlist. For a sure thing on the same street, try Camille (Tock, no walk-ins).
Where can we watch the fireworks without a park ticket?
Capa's rooftop at Four Seasons Orlando has a view of the Disney fireworks; reserve ahead.
Can we take the train to Miami?
Yes: Brightline leaves from MCO Terminal C with stops at West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and Aventura.
