We will taking the ME bus from MCO to AS Music. How late do the buses run and is there specific bus that goes to Music? We have never used the ME service before. We land at 6:40p and will have carry on luggage. We will eat in the airport first to go to Music.

TIA
 
the Bus run all night for the MCO to all the resorts so no wories their and it can take any were from 1hr to one and a half depending wich resort the bus goes to first ...
 
If your plane for some reason lands after 10 pm you will have to collect your luggage. I think it took me about 30-45 minutes from boarding the bus to getting to my room at sports last time.

When you arrive at MCO, you can head directly to the DME checkin area, or you can stop and eat first..up to you. If your plane lands on time, at 6:40, and you go directly to the DME area, you will most likely be at your resort by 8pm. The food court will still be open at Music..you might want to just wait until you get to your resort to eat.

The DME buses run 24/7. Checked baggage delivery runs between 7am and 10pm. Any checked bags arriving after 10pm will remain at the airport until the next morning if they are tagged with the DME yellow tags.

You are not assigned a specific bus. When you get to DME checkin, you will have your vouchers scanned and you are then sent to the appropriate bus line for your resort. Then you will board the next arriving bus...that could be almost immediately or it could take longer....maybe 20 or so mins. Depends on when the last bus left.

Just a note... the 60 to 90 minute estimated time frame is from when you get off the plane, NOT when the bus leaves.
 
I'll be a gadfly and throw in an off-color off the cuff off topic remark. Like throwing two dirty stained pennies into Cinderella's Fountain or It's A Small World.

Going home, you are assigned to a specific Magical Express bus and it will be the end of the world (or at least the end of the magic) if you miss it. But it will be there all right; for example if your flight leaves at 6:30 in the morning you'll board the bus around 3:30.

For flights arriving in Orlando after 10 PM, yellow tagged bags will be available for manual pickup at the carousels.

Nobody inquired about DME heading back to MCO. It's better to not muddy up the waters with info that has no bearing on the question asked!
