Disney's Magical Express

As of May 5, 2005, guests of Disney hotels began using Disney's Magical Express service can check their bags at their hometown airport, bypass baggage claim at Orlando International Airport (OIA) and board motor coaches to the Walt Disney World Resort - as their bags "magically" appear in their room upon check in. The round-trip service is complimentary during Disney's Happiest Celebration on Earth event.

Most recent reviews of Magical Express are positive, however be prepared to not have your luggage in your hotel room for several hours!

How Disney's Magical Express service works:

* Disney's Magical Express must be booked at least 10 days prior to arrival through disneyworld.com, Disney Reservation Center by calling 407-W-DISNEY or a travel agent.

* Guests check their specially-tagged luggage at their departure airport.

* Upon arrival in Orlando, guests bypass airport baggage claim and go directly to the Disney Airport Welcome Center. When you fly *in* to Orlando, it doesn't matter which airline you're on.

* Guests board state-of-the-art motor coaches that take them to their Disney hotel.

* A team of Disney representatives at the airport will pick up guests' luggage and transport it to their hotel room.

This is not personalized service. You will be boarding a bus with other Disney Resort Guests.

If you are flying out with any *participating* airline you can avoid airport check-in lines on domestic flights by checking your luggage and receive a boarding pass before ever departing your Disney hotel. Airlines are: American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Song, United Airlines or Ted. Pickup from your Disney hotel returning to the airport will be made 3.5 hours prior to your flight time.

This service is available for Disney Vacation Club Members.

Disney's Magical Express service is not be available to guests of the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin hotels, Shades of Green, or the seven hotels near Hotel Plaza Boulevard.

Taxi

Outside the baggage handling area is also the Taxi service. Cabs/vans arrive and take guests as they come in...so no telling what "company" you will get. Groups of 4 or more may get a taxi van. The price was the same for 2 adults as it was for 4; approximately $45 one way for the ride (plus gratuity) to a Disney Property Hotel.

Rental Car

Rental cars are another viable option for ground transportation in Orlando. At the Orlando International airport you will find companies both oniste and off site (shuttle ride required). At the airport itself you will find Naional, Alamo, Dollar, Avis, Budget and L&M. For all others hop on the shuttle.

At Walt Disney World you will find 2 locations for National/Alamo - one at the Car Care Center near the Magic Kingdom. The other off the main lobby in the Dolphin hotel.
