How To Find Disney's Magical Express At Orlando International Airport

One of the things that I get asked all the time, as a Disney Travel Agent, is how to get from the Orlando airport to your Disney World Resort Hotel. And I love getting to answer that question, because it's a super easy one! Disney's Magical Express is a complimentary service that will take you from the airport, straight to your resort hotel. If you're using a TA, make sure they have set it up for you, if you are booking your vacation yourself, go ahead and give Disney a call to let them know that you'd like to take advantage of it. All they'll need is your flight info, so they know when to expect you.

Once you've landed in Orlando, you'll just be following the "Ground Transportation" signs from your gate, straight to the Magical Express Welcome Center. Here are the details, straight from Disney:

The Disney’s Magical Express Welcome Center is in the Main Terminal Building on the B side, Level 1 in the Ground Transportation area. Take the tram from your aircraft gate and you will arrive on Level 3 of the Main Terminal Building. Proceed to B side and take the elevator or escalator down to Level 1. If you need to pick up your luggage, remember to stop on Level 2 at baggage claim. Once you check in at the Disney’s Magical Express Welcome Center, we will direct you to your motor coach.

Did you notice where it said, "If you need to pick up your luggage...?" Another complimentary service that Disney provides for its resort guests is Magical Luggage Pickup/Delivery. When you are signed up for the Magical Express, Disney will send you sticky luggage tags, to wrap around the handle of your checked baggage. Simply put them on your bags, and check your luggage at your originating airport. Then, you can forget all about 'em. Disney has fairies that will come and grab your bags for you and deliver them straight to your resort hotel room, so you don't have to! If you do choose to take advantage of this fantastic service, definitely make sure that you have everything that you need in your carry-ons. It can take up to 3 hours for your bags to make it to your room (fairies are small and bags are heavy). Also, please be aware that this service is available between the hours of 5am-10pm.

Don't have those luggage tags to put on your checked bags? No worries! Simply hang onto the claim numbers that you receive when you check your bags at the airport. You can give those to the great folks at the Magical Express Welcome Center and they will take care of everything!
