Anyone use Magical Express to OKW?

We're going down on July 4th for a week, staying at OKW. Has anyone used Magical Express to OKW? How long does it take to get there? When does luggage arrive? Any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks

We just got here today June 4th. We landed around 2:45 and we were actually in the room by 4:45. The airport was pretty busy. A five minute wait to check in at Magical Express and then about a 5 minute wait to get on the OKW bus which was shared by SS, Fort Wilderess and one other place which I can't remember. It took about 10 minutes before the bus left. It was a full house. One or two people had to split from their parties to get a seat. OKW was the first stop. We were checked in and then the bellman took us to our room in a van with our carry ons (family of 5 with 3 young children) so carryons were almost maxed. The service directly to the unit was appreciated. We are in building 45.

Luggage was delivered by 5:30 and nothing was missing.

Hope this helps.

We love this resort!

Thanks for the info. That sounds great. I'm glad OKW is the first stop. I wonder if it always is.
Anyway, enjoy your trip. We love OKW too. We've tried them all and we always come back to our home.

My sister did on our recent trip and her only complaint was there were no signs or directions at the airport for her to find the stand to tell them she was there. She said her bus stopped only at OKW. Her luggage arrived about 30 minutes after we got into our room--we didn't get the room number until about 4:30 or so. . .

We used DME the first day of the program and found it to be very convenient.

Our trip had three stops - SSR, OKW and PO-R in that order, so OKW was the second stop. It took about 4 hours for our bags to be delivered to our room from the time we landed, but the trip from MCO was great with minimal wait time.

We will use DME again in the future.

Enjoy!

I used ME *from* OKW on May 25th. (I had started my trip at BWV.) There was some confusion in getting me my reservation, but I just showed up a little early, and the person at the Bell Hop desk wrote me up a voucher and put me on the first bus that showed up.

On the way to the airport, the video monitors showed us an extended Disney commercial!
