DME ever gotten you to airport just in time?

Wow! Seems that the drivers need to be a little more proactive/assertive about not holding the bus for those not at the stop at the appointed time! That is not fair to put other guests in jeopardy of making them late for their flights and they could clearly use that at the reason as to why they cannot hold the bus!

Anybody know of a web site that gives security wait times for each hour of each day?

Nice app from TSA

It has a tab for real time security waits at different airports, MCO is one of the ones you can look up.

It also has a useful tab where you can enter in different items, and it tells you how you need to pack them - in your carry-on, in checked luggage, or aren't allowed in either.


Also, anyone know if there is a certain order the bus go in when they pick up hotel guests? We are staying AKL, and I'm trying to figure out how many resorts we will stop at before we leave for the airport. I'm thinking quite a few.

If you think there is any chance you may get to the airport with less than an hour to spare, and are leaving from Side B? Get off at Side A. The one issue you may have would be if you had stowed luggage beneath the bus..the driver may say that you are supposed to get off on Side B and please remain on the bus. But it's actually fairly quick to get from Side A over to Side B once you're on the inside of the terminal.

i on my last trip i had a pick up time that was a little closer and did question that. i arrived at the pickup area 20 minutes ahead and soon a bus pulled up. the family checking their luggage ahead of me were to be on my flight and when that bus pulled up, i thought i would be on that one. the other family got on and they told me to wait for the next bus. then a family had overslept and the father came out to have them hold the bus until every one was there. they held the bus for 40 minutes. i was getting worried. i arrived at the gate as they were closing the plane door.:me.

I would call holding the Magical Express bus 40 minutes to be a major aberration and that Disney should see home anyone (other than the late party) who missed his flight as a result even if traffic and weather together (or separately) added to the mix.

Fortunately in the majority out of the miniscule number of instances none of which I have read about, the airline has another not too inconvenient flight to simply switch the affected party to and Mickey really doesn't have to lift a white gloved finger
