What is it?

Question

2

This is our first trip and we're using Disney's Magical Express to get from the Orlando Airport to the resort. I don't really know what to expect. I realize I don't need to pick up my bags, but what else do I need to need to know? It all seems so weird - but very nice too in not having to worry about getting a rental car, having directions ready, getting the luggage, etc.

UPDATE 3/3/10 : A great description of the service from "Disney Daddy" Chuck Lionberger

You're going to have a great time!

So exciting!!

Here is how it goes... first, it will take some time to get to your hotel using M.E. (Magical Express). When you get off the plane, you will usually be greeted by Disney cast members, with big Mickey hands, directing you to the stairs/escalators/elevators going down to the Main Terminal Building, B side, Level 1.

Depending on which hotel, and the number of people on line in front of you, it could take 45-60 minutes to get to your hotel. About 1-2 hours after that, you'll get your bags to your room. Again, all of these time depend on the volume of people, and luck.

It happens to be a great service, and while we usually rent a car, the kids always like the whole bus-to-hotel trip, and I meet the rest of the family there.

Have a fantastic time!!!!

We have also used this service many times, and we have never had a problem. We usually pick up our suitcases from baggage claim and bring them with us on the magical express bus. This works well for us because we don't want to wait for our luggage. We have never had a problem doing this though. The drivers are always very helpful and courteous. The video that is playing on the bus is also exciting because it gets you ready for the magic of your trip!

What can I expect from Disney Magical Express?
