The Ultimate Packing List
Avoiding Traffic
To avoid spending countless vacation hours sitting in traffic, consider using alternative routes. I-4 and International drive are the main throughways thru the city. Both of these routes often get tied up with endless traffic. Route 417 to the east and Route 429 to the west form a loop around the city and both have access to all of the major areas without the backups.

A Helpful Travel Hint
Many of the roads in the area are toll and Florida has many un-manned toll booths. Not all rental cars provide the Sun Pass Transponder.
Be prepared and have a few dollars in quarters handy if you do not have the Florida Sun Pass.
I have seen countless times the desperate traveler stuck at the booth exiting the highway only to find out they do not have quarters.
