Mears Connect Experience

Sorry if I have missed this in a previous message, but we are booked with Mears tomorrow (first time using as we haven’t been in the parks since the loss of the magical express!) MCO to POFQ. We’re coming from London and at the moment our flight is already showing as potentially an hour delayed. What happens if your flight is delayed, will they just put you on another bus going in the right direction?

Exactly. They run buses frequently enough leaving the airport that you’ve nothing to worry about.

Oh good, thank you! When I checked in this morning our flight was showing as 45 min delayed, and now it’s gone up to 1hr 5

Oh, dear, not what you want to see! Good news is whatever time you do arrive, there will be a Mears bus to bring you to the resort.

Just an FYI, the return to the airport is different. You will receive an assigned pick up time at your resort and you need to be there when the bus arrives since the driver has a list of passengers. Not that they can’t still get you to the airport but they do not run buses continually in that direction so it is much more complicated.

Safe travels!

Any recent experiences?

Most recent was end of May/ start of June. Booked before we left, arrived at MCO around 10:00 am and finished our check-in at the front desk of BW by 11:15.
Very drama-less coming and going.

Thanks!

I think a lot depends on the resort. We noticed the less expensive resorts got loaded onto buses more frequently because they could get a full bus quickly due to the volume of families taking the bus. While we waited in a long line for a deluxe, those arriving at Mears Connect that were headed to the All Stars were basically arriving in line and being put on a bus right away. We were there Sat afternoon in mid March. Hope the feedback helps. If you can get to your resort within an hour upon arrival it’s great. Not our experience when waiting for Saratoga Springs.
