Magical Express Question

[HesATramp]

Hey all!

I've got a question that I just realized will be an issue for me with my next trip. I'm taking my cousin with me (paying for the entire thing), but she'll be flying out of NC, and arriving at MCO about 45 minutes before me. We'll be on the same ressie, same room, etc. She'll probably want to wait for me to arrive at MCO to go off to POP together, so how will that be handled? Will I have to put us both on separate ressies, or could we both be on the same ME bus? I really don't want to have to deal with separate ressies, but if I have to, I guess I will! Any info would be appreciated!


Until next time,
John

I'd just provide your later flight information for both of you as far as the DME reservation goes, but it doesn't really matter. You don't actually get assigned to a particular bus until you check in at the DME counter, so even if you list separate flight times when you make the reservation you'd still get on the same bus if she waits to check in with you. I assume they like to have flight info in order to have a reasonably good sense of when they'll be having peak times and when they'll be having slow times, but not to get individual bus counts down to the person.

If you're using the luggage service coming in, it's possible that your bags will arrive separately. They just get pulled behind the scenes as they come in and get loaded for shipment to the resorts.
