Disneyland Resort Express (now run by CoachUSA)

[Guy in Fargo]

Just booked tickets for DRE.

Looks like Gray Line Tours has pulled out of Southern California altogether and that the service is now provided by CoachUSA.

Please clarify if I'm in err.

No, I am of the impression you are correct. StarLine Tours have taken over the vast majority of the tours which used to be run by Gray Line. They have recently revamped their website, so use Google to find it and click on the 'tours from Anaheim' page. They are offering a decent amount of tours, hopefully you will find something suitable.

Those tours on StarLine tours don't seem to be simple airport-to-hotel transportation and are more expensive than Gray Line was, so I'm really confused about what to book for this upcoming Sunday

It does appear that Coach USA is now providing the Disneyland Express service. The link from the Disneyland site isn't working, but I found this link on the Coach USA site:

https://dre.coachusa.com/ShuttleReservations/Home

Hopefully there will be mire definitive information soon.

I just bought my tickets from that link (thank you!) and the tickets/reciept say "Pacific Coast Sightseeing"

I am trying to decide on transportation to/from the airport. Our hotel is #13 on the DRE schedule. Seems like we'd be on the bus a long time. Do the stops go relatively quickly?

 

[Guy in Fargo]

They follow a route, but don't stop unless they have a pickup/dropoff.

They do stop at the Disneyland hotel for a while before going on the route.

I have two hours allotted from landing to check-in. 20 minutes to curbside pickup. 60 minutes of driving to the Disneyland hotel. 40 minutes to dwell at dh and to make it to our hotel.

They can - but sometimes you can just get off earlier on opposite side of street at earlier stop. For example, I stayed at Tropicana but got dropped at HoJo rather than sitting on bus for another 20 mins. It was a max 5 min walk? Same on the way back. The pickup outside Tropicana was 1hr earlier than I wanted so walked to HoJo on way back.

Also, I've been the only one on the shuttle and we skipped the DLH and went straight to my hotel, which was great. They will skip stops if they don't need to drop there.

The shuttle is SO easy even with a stop at the DLH. And cheap. Google for a promo code for $10 off/ticket. Tested it yesterday and it's still valid

Looking at the schedule, it says the Courtyard by Marriott is serviced by Stop #4, which is the Anaheim Marriott (which is by the convention centre).

I'm not incorrect in this right? If I'm staying at the Courtyard by Marriott, I should get off at the Howard Johnson stop #17.

You are correct.

There are two Courtyards near Disneyland.

I'm staying at the Courtyard Theme Park Entrance (as are you) and will be getting off at the HoJo and walking across the street.
