Beth, our travel agent, answers questions about Disney's Magical Express:
"If there's one thing I get more questions on than anything else, it's Disney's Magical Express (DME). So maybe I can answer some of those questions for you before you ask...
1) There is no cost for this service.
2) You must be staying at a Disney-owned resort.
3) You can fly any airline and get your tickets from any source.
4) If you don't receive your baggage tags before you go DME will still take you.
5) Only the people listed on the reservation can go on the bus.
6) You cannot send your luggage to your hotel via DME unless you also take DME.
7) People in the same room can arrive/depart on more than one flight.
8) If you arrive on an international flight you have to claim your bags yourself and take them through customs before returning them to DME for transfer to the resort.
9) DME services only Orlando International Airport (MCO). If you fly into or out of Sanford or any other airport you're on your own.
10) The wait for your baggage averages 3 hours (assuming you arrive around 3PM or later) so pack things you need shortly after arrival in a carry-on and keep it with you.
11) Don't' panic if your flight times change. DME tracks you by flight number, not time, so they'll catch the change. If your flight number changes, though, it's nice to let them know (although not mandatory).
12) Because DME tracks by flight number the flight times often show on confirmations, tags, and elsewhere as midnight. Again, don't panic. It's just how their system works. As long as the flight number and the resort are correct on the tags you're fine.
Don't hesitate to ask if you have more questions!"
