Beach Club & ME

[Lady Hiss]

Has anyone used ME lately and stayed at the Beach Club? When you're transported from MCO to the resort, is it the same ol' "stop at Swan/Dolphin; Yacht Club; Beach Club; Boardwalk" scenario that the WDW buses do? If that's the case, how long did it take to finally get to the Beach Club?

Thanks for any info.

When we first used DME last June, we were stayng at BCVs. It took us about an hour from touchdown to resort check-in line. The Swan/Dolphin are not 'included' in the DME plan, but you might run into a few people that have paid for Mears transport to S/D, so you could possibly stop there. But, the route is very similar to the regular bus route...YC/BC/BW.

Thanks for the prompt reply. Knowing about all the stops helped me make the decision to pass on this great deal. Once our plane has landed we're always eager to start our vacation right away. I think I'd get really impatient with stops at the other resorts. So, we'll go the Town Car route this time.

It really depends on the resorts on your particular bus, and the driver. There is no "set route" for the DME bus to make dropping off, only when they're picking up.
The Swan/Dolphin are not included in DME because they are not Disney owned resorts EXCEPT for DCL passengers that have the transportation included in their package. And that's only 2 days a week that that would happen.
Sometimes the DME bus will pick up at the Swan/Dolphin but that does not happen too often.

I used ME to BCV a few weeks ago and it stopped at CBR then BWI, then BC. Each stop was not very long at all. I'd say it added on another 20-30 mins. to the journey. Not bad when you consider the price!
