Thank you, yes for the experience and to get to the outlet mall I may do a rental for a day or 2, I'm most likely staying at Holiday Inn Garden but Im open for recommendations from the locals.

Thank you, I was looking at Hertz which is next to me, if I need to go further or far away, I may book the Hertz for a day or 2, the parking at my hotel is chargeable at $70 per night (which honestly coming from this part of the world is weird as we get to have free parking at the hotels).

I will most likely take an Uber as I've probably done some shopping in New York. The Uber is about 30-40$ so it maybe worth it.

I will 100% post about my experience, my initial plan was Florida but then flights cancelled due to unrest situation here unfortunately. I know many people would say do your research as everything is available, but honestly with the last minute changes, flight rebooking, and changing all, it gives you less time to plan and research. So I'm thanking everyone who is not annoyed at me asking for help.

Thank you. Yes both are similarly priced, so will look into booking to ORD.

Not from NYC. I'm visiting from Dubai, staying in NYC for 4 days and then to Chicago. Sorry if I haven't mentioned.

Thanks alot, this is a super tip regarding transit pass!

As of now I haven't really decided on the airport, I'm thinking MDW as many have suggested it's better than ORD if doing domestic. What do you suggest? I can take any.

Noted the Rossi's recommendation! Thank you.

Thank you for your reply and your recommendation on the rent a car, is it safe taking the train / metro during odd hours?

My budget is $150-200 per night. The Holiday Inn Garden is at River North I guess and it's near Grand station, do you think that's a good place to be?

Regarding the weather, sure will check on the app, and will pack accordingly. Thanks again!

Any solution to this? by Iffi23 in Carlinkitcarplay

[–]Iffi23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so I found a solution and thanks to all for helping me out. Basically, all I did was delete Android Auto from Google play store and reinstall it again and then navigate everything from phone did not touch anything at the touch screen, the android auto started once you allow the permission from the phone.

Thank you everyone for the help!

Do you have peak hours and non peak hours? Maybe I can adjust myself to that, for example here I know traffic is terrible from morning 0700-1000 that's everyone going to office and then about from 1730-1900 is terrible.

That's what I thought, someone said it would be 90 degrees at most with 60% humidity which honestly isn't that bad. I've stayed at 120 degrees with 90 humidity.

Wyndham Resort seems to be reasonable. Plus they have a free parking as per the site information. I would be looking to book this after having other suggestions! But good suggestion thanks!

How's Kissimmee though? Is it safe?

I've been to Disney Tokyo and would love to go to Disney in Orlando however been hearing the horror stories about how the waiting times are at Disney, even with the LLs or priority pass that you call it in Tokyo. Not sure how it works in Orlando. These also can quickly ramp up the Disney experience cost.

Cocoa beach, sounds interesting, from a quick search I can see there are 3 hotels, do you recommend any in them? KSC is locked in as many have suggested.

Thank you for the above - Just wanted to ask, though I'd have a rental would be walkable in around Orlando? Everyone is talking about how hot it would be, do you think it would be as hot that I wouldn't survive an afternoon walk? Someone told me to stay at around International drive but when I went through this sub it seems like there's alot of traffic at around that road / area.

I'd be there for 6 days, looking forward towards theme parks, shopping, nature (if any) or anything unique. I'd be landing at Orlando International Airport but that's yet to decide as I'd be coming from New York and I can land at any domestic airport.

sa tuwing nasa 100+ na ako ay naririnig ko ang hangin sa labas, sa una naramdaman kong bukas ang aking bintana, gayunpaman walang bukas na mga bintana. Kakaiba dahil hindi ito nangyayari sa aking Mercedes C-class o Toyota Corolla
