Magical Express Query

[Cumbley]

Hi all - I've got a couple of queries about the magical express which I hope you can help with!

1) can you still book it online? I have done in previous years but I can only find a telephone number on my booking documents.
2) this is the first time we have flown indirect - when sorting the return journey, will they take account of the fact that although we are flying internally to Atlanta we are obviously eventually flying back to the uk! I am just thinking about how long we need to be at the airport before our flight home!

TIA!

Hi. We managed to book the magical express online a few weeks back (you can still phone to book as well) - I had the link from the last trip we made in 2014.

We recently flew indirect - The pick up time we were given was too long imo - allowing for 3hrs before the flight and 1hr travel time if memory serves - so flight time - 4hrs+ roughly - I asked reception to call and see if they could get it changed to be more inline with an internal - receptionish was not hopeful - but they agreed.

We couldnt use the check bags at the hotel since we were international

the more time you leave at the airport, the better off you are....security lines at orlando are notorious for making people miss flights...
i've personally witnessed people missing flights, so if it means hanging around the airport for any extra hour or two, it's worth it to me..

in addition, it pays to have extra time with ME, as they've been known to not show up....with extra time, you'll still be able to call a taxi if that happens to you..

To be honest we'd rather have longer at the airport- I'd be happier hanging around than stressing about being late. I just know that the ME is allocated based on flight number and obviously our first flight is internal. I guess I can just ask for an earlier departure if we don't think there is enough time. Thanks for your help all x

We will be using ME for getting back to the airport. I've read all the stories about it not showing up in time and God knows what... What time should we panick and call a taxi? And any idea how much that would cost?
