A Well Thought Out Plan by starship
We have always rented a car while visiting Disney World because of the convenience and the usually affordable price. However, if you are flying into Orlando and if staying at a Disney resort, virtually all of your transportation needs have been thought out for you. While a shuttle from the airport can be pretty pricey (maybe as much as $20-$40 per person), once you reach your park hotel/resort, transportation into the parks and around Disney World is free for resort guests. Disney buses marked with the park's name that they travel to will pick you up at your hotel/resort at designated stops and drop you usually at the entrance to the park. There are a number of methods of transportation to the parks including buses, boats, and monorail and trams and they're all free. For example, if you were staying at the Wilderness Lodge or Villas, you could go to the Magic Kingdom park by bus or boat!
