MEARS connect v. Sunshine Flyer

[vanessapas]

Has anyone used either of the bus companies this year? My husband and I are bringing our 5 y/o and 2.5 y/o in April. I have always used Magical Express and I'm trying to decide between the two. I was going to choose Sunshine Flyer for a themed experience, but I just read 3 negative reviews. I would love any opinions/experiences!

Check the transportation board! I think they have dedicated threads for each.

Mears was the company that Disney contracted to run Magical Express for 15 years. For the most part it is the same buses and the same drivers, so I think I will go with Mears Connect.

Both of them are still in "shakedown cruises" essentially.

I think Sunshine Flyer has only been operating a week or so.

Mears Connect, not much longer.

We decided to go for a limo company and request a car seat for the 20 month old, traveling with a mi fold for the 5.5 year old.
