My theory is that when I'm doing something lots of other people are doing (Orlando airport to cruise ship) there are people out there that have figured out how to make money on the action.

But with several of you, a one-way car rental might be a better choice.

The cruise ship may well offer transfers for $. They can be a reasonable deal.

And I totally agree with the suggestion of planning to come in a day early. Always.
You really shouldn't be planning to go directly from the airport to the ship. Always arrive a day early to allow for IROPs.
