Long time lurker, and since I can't find anything else on the boards about this, I'm going to post for the first time.
So. . .
Using Southwest, I have determined that we can fly into Tampa, rent a car for nine days, stay at an offsite hotel near downtown disney the day before check-in. . . . for the same price as flying straight to Orlando.
Has anyone else ever done this? For the price of about 30 extra minutes of driving each way, we basically get and early check-in and an extra half day at disney, plus the rental car . . . is there a downside?
Why doesn't everyone do this?
