The transfer time is typically 20 to 30 minutes by car, depending on traffic.
MCO is a major international airport, so there are lots of car hire providers if you want to drive yourself.
If you prefer to start your trip in the passenger seat, MCO allows pick-ups from ride-sharing apps like Uber and Lyft from Terminal A, Level 2.
A pre-booked private 'meet + greet' airport transfer is an attractive and convenient option.
Private airport transfers are a popular choice for guests because they add the convenience and reassurance that comes with being met at arrivals, and skipping the queues for the buses and trains.
Guests flying into Orlando International Airport (MCO) can book an airport transfer to Royal Pacific for around $50 for a sedan pick-up, around $90 for a minivan, and around $110 for a larger vehicle like an SUV.
Fly into Orlando Sanford Airport (MCO)
For those flying into Orlando Sanford International Airport, it’s a bit further at about 33 miles, with an estimated transfer time of around 45 minutes by car.
Coming from Sanford Airport (SFB) to Royal Pacific, private car transfers are similarly convenient and popular among guests – albeit, the extra distance means its more expensive.

By train to Orlando station
If you’re traveling by train, the nearest Amtrak station is Orlando Station, located about 10 miles from the resort. The transfer time is approximately 15 to 20 minutes by car.
A recent addition to guests’ travel options is Florida's Brightline rail service is a high-speed rail line connecting the Orlando International Airport (MCO) with other major cities in Florida, particularly Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach.
So this may allow more flexibility if your plans see you flying into another Florida airport, or, if you’re planning a split-stay trip.
