What time should I request pickup to airport?

[CaptainEIEIO]

I am using the Disney Magical Express. I see the the ME runs 24 hours a day. My flight leaves Orlando at 6 am. Were staying at Pop Century. How much time should I give myself to get to the airport? What time should I request a ME for?

They will assign you a bus about 3 hours before your flight, so around three. You have to be at the bus stop ready to go 15 minutes before your scheduled time.

Agreed, give or take 15 mintes. They will not let you schedule a later pick up.

Ouch, thats early, but oh well. I actually had a 9 am departure when reservations were made, but United changed them for some reason to 6 am. We might as well stay at Epcot until 11 then go back to the room and do an all nighter instead of trying to wake up.

Thanks guys.

If you haven't accepted the schedule change, look at United's current schedule.
If there's a flight at a better time, call and ask to be moved to that flight at no charge because their change doesn't work for you.

i went thru that with united last week.
they changed my time so i called and selected the last non stop flight out of orlando which was 5:12 pm.

no charge for switching from the morning flight.
