DME order

[disneyfreak71]

Is there somewhere I can find the order in which DME travels to the resorts? We are staying at FQ.

Thanks

There is no pre-set order, and no pre-set groupings of which resorts go together on DME buses. It's all planned and dispatched on an as-needed basis. Not knowing and not being able to predict or control the order of DME drop-offs is one of the very few variables we uber-planners have to deal with.

We used ME in April when we stayed at POFQ. There were 4 stops on our trip there, POFQ, POR, Saratoga Springs, and OKW. I can't remember, but I think POFQ was third or fourth on the list. I remember stopping at OKW, and instead of going on to Saratoga as we were supposed to, the driver said we would stop at POFQ next. So if there is a set schedule, it's pretty flexible.

In other words, for Pugrpooh, POFQ was the 2nd stop. It's unlikely, but possible, that Pugrpooh's DME motorcoach made two more stops after POFQ.

The list of resort names on the sign at the entrance to each waiting queue does not indicate a fixed route or a fixed order. The queues are just a way to keep guests organized. To load each motorcoach, a DME CM will call for guests going to a specific resort, then another resort, and so on. Those guests may be waiting in different queues.

Although DME can officially load guests going to four different resorts, it seems much more common to go to only two or three resorts. (When was the last time that anyone here read of someone making three stops before their destination?)

The driver picks the order of the stops.
