Magical Express/Hired Car

[earthelves]

Every Time We Have Visited Orlando We Have Picked Up A Hired Car At The Airport,This Time We Have The Option To Use Magical Express If We Do Opt To Use It Where Could We Pick Up Our Car?? Does Anyone Know If It Could Be Delivered To Onsite Property For Free & Then Picked Back Up From Property?? I Think It Would Be A Waste Not To Use Me

Thanks For Any Help

I don't think that any of the hire companies will deliver a car to your resort but they will arrange to pick you up and take you to the Disney Car Centre (near MK) to collect your car.

Also, where will you be staying? I think Alamo has a desk at the Dolphin and a few have desks at Downtown Disney area hotels so these are ideal if staying at Epcot or DTD resorts.

Next year we plan to use ME as we never use the car much when at Disney. We are then looking to pick up a car from DTD area (we will be at SSR) for the latter part of the holiday and returning it to MCO.

were using me this aug,were doing 3 weeks and have car fro middle 2 weeks.We use alamo and will pick up from car care centre(CCC).
I f picking up from CCC they have free bus transport from disney hotels to it.just book it the night before with bell services or front desk.or get on it if its there,just have to show booking comfermation
Were droping off at swan,as were staying at beach club that part of holiday so can just walk back.but if you take to CCC they have bus transport to take you back.alamo are disney`s prefered car hire operater

We're using the ME from MCO to allstar resorts then we are picking up the car from the car care centre for the 2nd week of our holiday and dropping off at the airport.

We are using ME then picking up the car from the Disney car care centre. They will collect you from a Disney hotel but arrange the pick up a few hours in advance

Our travel agency never spoke to us about ME so just wondering if anyone could give us the number please?
We've already tried 08702424900 the disney booking number and they said we could only book through travel agency?

Is this true? should I try ringing the american line direct instead?

Flying into MCO via Newark,

Just rung travel agent and they are CLUELESS about it! Even the "disney specialist", which does make me a little nervous

Anyway, just rung the Disney US reservation number and they've referred us back to our travel agent as well

This is a lowcost trip and we're relying on ME as its FREE!!
Anyone know anyway to get round this system???

Sorry for hi-jacking this thread

We were in Disney for 3 weeks last December. We spent the first night at Caribbean Beach so that we could get ME from the airport. I am still not confident enough to Drive from there yet. In the morning we go the bus to DTD and walked over to the Car Hire place, think it was the Grosvenor. Stayed at Homewood Suites for the next 10 days and the last 9 days at Saratoga Springs which again is opposite the Grosvenor so just too the car back the day we left and got ME back to the airport.
Just call the usual Didney number in the US which is think is

001 407 WDISNEY (9347639)

You will have to quote you ref number, dates etc. We had no problem doing this last year and loved the service and will do exactly the same this year.
