Booking a cruise ship vacation from Orlando is easy.

Finally, you may call the cruise line directly to book Orlando cruises.
Now that you know what is available, let us help you with some additional information.
First off, if you can drive to the cruise port, I encourage you to do so. My family lives in McDonough, GA, 400 plus miles from Orlando, and we drive to Port Canaveral, or to Tampa, or even Miami, each time we take an inclusive family cruise.
It saves you money, if you can drive.
However, if you must fly to your inclusive cruise from the Orlando area, you have two choices in airports: Orlando International Airport (MCO), or Melbourne International Airport (MLB).
The latter (Melbourne) is nearer to the cruise terminal, so you should plan to fly into Melbourne. However, Orlando is a bigger and more popular airport than Melbourne, so you will find more flights, and cheaper airfares, if you choose Orlando.
Plan carefully and choose wisely.
You may search TripAdvisor and set up an alert to watch for the best fares.
Consider Flying Into the Orlando or the Cape Canaveral Area Overnight.
It is critical that you get to your cruise port on time. Cruise ships do not sit and wait, if your flight is delayed. Consequently, if you are planning on an inclusive cruise leaving from Orlando, I encourage you to fly in a day before your cruise so you will have ample time to get to your cruise ship on the day of departure.
This is especially true if you fly into Orlando. Remember, the Orlando area is really about an hour's drive from the cruise terminals at Port Canaveral. So, if you fly into Orlando or even Melbourne, plan to find an affordable hotel where you can stay overnight.

Now, you are armed and ready to find inclusive cruises from Orlando (Port Canaveral). Whether you choose Carnival, Disney, Norwegian, or Royal Caribbean, your family will have a blast. In terms of prices, however, you may want to look at Carnival Cruises first.
Whatever you do, enjoy your family cruise ship vacation from Port Canaveral, and when you return, please share your experience with us.
