So we would like to stay 2-3 days at VGF (where we own) then do a 3 day cruise (pay/ cash) . My question is how to book this so we can use magic express from the airport to VGF the transportation from VGF to ship then ship to airport ? Go thru member services ? Thanks in advance !

You'll get free ME transport from the airport to the resort, but not to the cruise or from the cruise. You'll probably need to book the transportation from the resort to the cruise and back to the airport via the cruise line. And there is a charge for that.

Ok thanks ! I'm thinking I'll call member services and see if they can book the cruise too

They can't book cruises. They transfer you over to DCL and you must use points for at least one person. You'll need to call DCL and book.

We have some direct points and paid cash for member cruise...no points used.

That was the Member cruise, not a standard cash only cruise. You have to book the Member Cruise through MS.

If I book them seperately DVC thru Member services and the the cruise thru DCL can I still get transportation from the resort to the ship ? I'm ok with a fee.

Yes. You need to arrange ME from VGF to ship and ship to airport through DCL. The fee is $35 each way per person ($70 round trip). DCL will send pickup information to VGF which you will receive on your last night's stay.

If there are more than two of you it might be worth it to book a private car to the ship from your Disney Hotel. We have gotten a car service twice. This way you can leave the hotel earlier and board the ship earlier.

We've also done a one-way car rental. You can drop your family at the ship then return the car.

Good luck!
