Disney Cruises From Port Canaveral in 2023, 2024, & 2025

Port Canaveral is a bustling hub for cruise departures to the Eastern and Western Caribbean and Bahamas. Among the cruise lines that operate out of this port is Disney Cruise Line, which offers a range of exciting itineraries departing from Cruise Terminal #8 in Port Canaveral during 2023, 2024, and 2025.

It’s worth noting that Disney’s shorter 3- or 4-night cruises from Port Canaveral typically visit Castaway Cay and Nassau or just Castaway Cay on its own. These itineraries are perfect for a quick getaway with plenty to do onboard and ashore.

On the other hand, most of Disney’s longer cruises departing from Port Canaveral are multi-port itineraries. For instance, the Western Caribbean itinerary usually includes stops in Cozumel, Mexico, George Town, Grand Cayman, and Falmouth, Jamaica. Once at the port of call, passengers can participate in various shore excursions, from snorkeling and beach time to cultural tours and culinary experiences.

Airports for Disney Port Canaveral Cruises

Those who are close enough or prefer to drive can take advantage of the parking options described in the previous section. However, most people will fly into Orlando for their Disney Port Canaveral cruise.

Which Airport Should I Fly Into for a Disney Port Canaveral Cruise?

Orlando International Airport (MCO) is the most convenient airport for Disney cruises from Port Canaveral. The airport is about 45 miles west of Port Canaveral and offers many options for transportation to the port, including shuttle services, car rentals, and Uber/taxi services. Moreover, the airport has a wide range of flight options from around the globe, making it a convenient choice for travelers from all over. Additionally, flying into the airport eliminates the need to pay for parking, which can be expensive for those who drive.

Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) airport is about 61 miles away from the port. While certainly not the closest airport, it might be your only option if you’re flying with a smaller/discount air carrier (or are flying in non-stop from a smaller regional airport). It does not offer any official Disney shuttle services to the port.

Melbourne Airport (MLB) is located 29 miles away from Port Canaveral, and it takes approximately 48 minutes to drive between the two. However, MLB is a smaller airport than Orlando International Airport, with fewer flights arriving and fewer services available. In addition, flights to MLB are typically more expensive, making it a less popular option for those flying in for a Disney cruise from Port Canaveral.

What is the Best Way to Get from the Orlando Airport to Port Canaveral?

When it comes to traveling from Orlando International Airport to Port Canaveral, the transportation option that’s best for you will largely depend on your preferences and budget. Renting a car is a possibility, but it can be costly.

A rideshare app like Uber or Lyft offers direct transportation to Port Canaveral and is usually the least expensive option for groups of three to five people. Moreover, Uber and Lyft do not require advance reservations. For these reasons, ridesharing is the best option to travel from Orlando International Airport to Port Canaveral.

It is also possible to book an independent shuttle service, which is typically less costly for singles and couples than ridesharing and less expensive for groups than Disney shuttle services. Independent shuttle companies offer various vehicle options, ranging from sedans to motor coaches.

If you are willing to pay more, Disney’s official ground transportation (shuttle service) offers a seamless, door-to-door Disney experience. Since it is per person, it may be more expensive than Uber or third-party shuttles, but if you want a hassle-free Disney experience, Disney ground transportation is your best option.

In summary, Uber is the best way to get to Port Canaveral for budget-conscious travelers, especially families. Or, you can get an all-inclusive, hassle-free Disney experience by booking DCL’s official ground transportation with your Disney cruise package. The Vacationeer can assist you with this.
