does anyone know of a reasonable way to get from the airport to the port? also, how long of a ride is it from the airport to the port?

It's about 45 min to an hour depending on traffic. We're a family of 6 so I found it cheaper to rent private transportation than go with the cruise shuttle. I used Legacy Limo and was very happy with them. Mears Transportation offers bus service and I have heard others have used Art's Shuttle and were happy with them. I used Mears for transporation to Disney before and they were fine, you just have to wait until the bus fills up.

arts shuttle is supposed to be an economical way to get there for larger parties. You could also rent a town car or limo. Depends on how many of you there are. Tiffany and FL Tours are a couple, Happy Limo also. You could rent a car/van. Florida has one way drop offs so you are not charged extra. As said above it is about 45 - 60 minutes to get to the port.

Go with the Disney bus..... there will be Disney people there at the airport to great you...

It is basically just a motor coach, bus....But it has a bathroom on it, just in case, esp when travelling with kids...

Plus also they play an intro movie. Which is nice., it helps to pass the time.

If my flight lands at 12:15, is it too tight to get to the port in time for sailing?

No, you should be fine. If you do opt for Disney transportation, you are guaranteed that they wait for you. Personally I prefer a towncar service because they only wait for me which is especially beneficial on debarkation day.

Have a great cruise!
