Disney’s Magical Express Transportation
Image via WikipediaIf you’re staying at one of the Walt Disney World Resorts you may decide to take a vacation from driving – and simply use Disney Transport to get between your resort and the parks. But how do you get from the airport to your hotel and back again?
That’s where Disney’s Magical Express Transportation comes in.
Forget about waiting in baggage claim watching cases go round and round on the conveyor belt – simply exit the airport and board the Magical Express bus and Disney will retrieve your bags and deliver them directly to your room. At the end of your vacation they’ll transport you and your bags back to the airport.
How it works
- Make a Magical Express reservation online or by calling the Disney Reservation Center.
- They will send you some luggage tags which you will need to attach to your luggage.
- You will also receive some vouchers which you will need to take with you to the airport.
- When you land at Orlando International Airport skip past baggage claim and go to the Disney Welcome Center (Side B – level 1).
- Board the air-conditioned motor coach and sit back and enjoy the journey to your Disney Resort. The journey will take between 45 and 75 minutes and stop at up to three Resorts.
- Disney will collect your luggage and deliver it directly to your hotel room within three hours of check in.
- At the end of your vacation board the coach and it will transport you back to Orlando International.
- You may be eligible to check your luggage and receive your boarding passes using the Resort Airline Check In Service.
It’s as simple as that!
Remember that your luggage may arrive at the resort up to three hours after you do so you might want to pack a swim suit in your hand luggage. If you are planning on heading straight for the parks ensure you have everything you need in your hand luggage.
If you prefer to collect your bags yourself you can do that – they’ll simply load them onto your coach with you.
Oh and perhaps the most important point – Disney’s Magical Express is currently free for all Walt Disney World Resort guests arriving into Orlando International Airport.
