Looking for the best way to and from, will be leaving from the Wildwood side. This will be at night, Thanks.

If you have a smart phone, install google maps. I use it for all of my travel. It takes you to your destination easily and clearly. It even speaks the directions so you don't have to look at your phone while driving. It's like a Garmin only better!!

301 S to Florida Turnpike S, to 528 E---takes you right to airport entrance in about 1 hr

I agree with golfing eagles, easy to get to airport, but be sure to either have your Sun Pass with you or take lots of single dollar bills for the tolls. Not too expensive, but the tolls can be annoying.

Since you have a computer you can try google earth or a maps program for suggestions. Also go to the airport site and they should have maps and instructions on parking garages etc. Be sure to know what gate you plane leaves from and the parking that relates to that area.

Also, you have at least 2 shuttle options if you do not want to drive, Villages transportation, Villages Taxi, I agree with the above comment about the tolls, we bought a sunpass.

Yes Google Maps or any other GPS App will get you there.

And the best part is that FDOT has removed the SunPass station...right before the airport exit!

If you have SunPass, you used to have to go from the far left SunPass lanes and then quickly cut across the lanes of those coming out of the toll booth lanes on the right...so you didn't miss the exit.

Publix sells sunpass readers for $5.

Thanks for all the replies, I thought there may be a shorter way then using a GPS. Taking the turnpike to 528 worked great, I didn't want to have someone else pick her up since the flight arrived at 1am. Someday I'll break down and get a Sun Pass, thanks again.

It's not that big a deal. You'll need $3 for a toll about 15 miles after you get on the Turnpike, just before Clermont. There's a second toll of $1 when you exit. Total $4.

Florida tolls. Florida's Turnpike toll calculator.

"Publix sells sunpass readers for $5."


Only $5? At Sunpass website, it is $19.99. Are we talking the same thing, the transponder?

[jimmemac]

The $5 one is good only on one car for as long as you own it(glues on and is not transferable to another car, sell it and it is done. The other is for a transponder that may be put on more than one vehicle that you own

Agree. This is a major safety improvement.
