ME- Anyone know the order of stops on each route?

[Patty3]

We are staying at the BCV and I was wondering if I could just pick up my bags and have them on the bus with me if my tags do not arrive in time. Thanks.

localdriver,

First let me say that you didn't come off as bitter to me, just honest. You are right, you pay more to stay at the GF because of the resort, nobody promises you better transportation.

Now the question.. our flight doesn't get in until 10:23 pm (and that's if it's on time). What can we expect with ME? Will there still be staff there to show us where to go? Are there going to be many stops and a long wait on the bus because they group all the late arrivals together? I'm thinking about getting our luggage ourselves, I don't want it delivered at 1:00 in the morning! TIA for any information you have.

Yep, you got it right, not bitter , but I say what I think.

The question is, Have you made Disney aware of your plans

The busses should be there for you. Luggage? not our department. Again, we drive, we don't see your luggage, unless you choose to not tag it and claim it. I'm sure this whole process is getting much better.

If you have carry- on's the driver will take care of that for you.

Hope I answered your question.

Gosh, I missed some responses that I should have attended to here, that I wished I could have responded to more timely. I'm sorry for that. But schedules are what they are.

To answer one question, NO ROUTE from the airport should last longer than 1"05, unless Disney throws a 5th stop on.

I need to pay more attention.

I know we all don't agree on everything, but that's what makes life interesting....

Thanks, Localdriver

localdriver,

Thanks for your response. I called the ME phone number and asked them about late arrival. I was assured that someone would be there!

I forgot to add that the CM did recommend that we get our own luggage since it would be delivered in the middle of the night.
