Magical Express

Was just thinking of something - our flight home leaves around 8am?

Does anyone know what time the Magical Express starts or do they run 24/7?


Thanks in advance,

They run 24/7.

They will schedule your pick up around 5:00 am.

And you need to be at the bus stop, ready to go, 15 minutes prior to your pick up time. Your ME packet will tell you that, and they mean it. My dad almost missed his bus one morning because he was at the bus stop early.

And I believe that you will have to take your luggage with you. The RAC system doesn't open until 5 am and that too short with your 8am flight (there is a 3 hour prior deadline)

They run when there are passengers that need transported. So while they can run 24/7, then run only when there are passengers. For an 8AM flight your time will be around 5 am, as stated you will get a packet the day before telling you when your bus will LEAVE your resort. You want to be AT THE DME STOP at least 15 minutes BEFORE that time, ready to go with all bags and everything.

Thanks you so much for your answers.

In the past, we have used a town car as there was no "Magical Express".

I was just concerned since we have such an early departure.

What better place to check than with people who have lots of "Disney Experience"!

Thanks again,




Jan

we fly at 8.30pm so from the prev replies i assume we would be able to use ME and get picked up around 5pm? can someone please let me know if all the ME have bathroom facilities onboard just a member of our party has IBS and im wondering if this maybe a better option than a hire car as its brought on by panic attacks which are brought on by knowing they can get to a bathroom quick? any advise welcome

I have the same problem, and it is one of the reasons I love ME. There are bathrooms on the ME busses.
