Magical Express question

[Joan1]

Does it run 24 hours a day? We are looking at a flight that comes in about 11:30pm and were wondering if we will still be able to use the transfers

Thanks

Yes it does run 24 hours a day.

i think i remember reading somewhere that their official hours ended at 11, but you could call if you needed a later pickup to have that arranged. i would check out the dme thread on the transporation board, i think that's where it is. good luck!

edit: nevermind, i have wrong information. ignore me please!

The DME runs 24/7 so I don't think it stops at 11:00.

As long as you have a reservation, DME will be there for you, even if your flight is running very late.

The only 'downside' to arriving at that time is your luggage delivery. Since DME gets your luggage to you within 3 hrs of resort checkin, you could possibly be getting your luggage in the very middle of the night. Most people either do not put the yellow tags on and get their bags themselves and bring them to DME checkin to be stowed underneath the bus or, they tag them and then tell the resort to hold them until the next morning, at a time convenient for the guest.
Just be sure to pack anything you will need for the night in your carryon...just in case something happens to your checked bags.

DME does not deliver the luggage to the room very late at night. When your luggage arrives, you will get a message on your phone (no ring...just a light) that it is downstairs. If you awake and wish to have it delivered, you can make arrangements then.

I'd say that depends on the resort, and even then it depends on the individual CM making that decision. We landed at 10:00 p.m., arrived at POFQ at 11:00 p.m., and my phone rang at 1:16 a.m. (I have the sight of the clock radio burned into my brain) ... it was Bell Services asking if we wanted the bags now or in the morning.

And what, pray tell, did you tell them to do with the bags??
