![]() Guests who check luggage will need to retrieve it from baggage claim before heading to the Mears bus terminal. Unfortunately, Mears does NOT offer this service, which is a real bummer if your traveling with any checked baggage. Once checked at the airport, the bags would be taken directly to your room at your Disney resort, with no need to stop at baggage claim. In the past, guests were mailed luggage tags in the weeks prior to their trip with instructions to use them to check their baggage. With the previous Disney’s Magical Express service, you were able to check your luggage at the airport straight through to your resort. We wanted to compare apples to apples with the comparison between Mears Connect and what was Disney’s Magical Express. ![]() Which service you choose is up to you, but for the purposes of this review, we used the standard service. The pricing is QUITE different for each service, as you can see below: The website makes it clear that this is not a private car to your resort, so it’s possible you might share a vehicle with other parties. The express service provides a shared vehicle that takes you directly to your hotel with no stops. The standard service is what replaced Disney’s Magical Express and is provided via shuttle buses that make stops at one or more hotel or resort. Mears offers two levels of service with Mears Connect: Standard or Express. So if you’ve ever taken Disney’s Magical Express, you’ve already experienced Mears service, and your experience here won’t be much different. Mears uses the same buses, the same drivers and even the same bus terminal at the airport that Disney’s Magical Express used to use. With the elimination of Disney’s Magical Express service, Mears has stepped in independently to provide this service to guests themselves, but for a fee. Mears was actually the contractor who provided this service for Walt Disney World back then, so it’s not new territory for them. Until January 2022, this service was known as Disney’s Magical Express and was provided for free to all guests staying at hotels on Disney property. ![]() Mears Connect is a shuttle company that offers direct service to and from Orlando International Airport to all Walt Disney World Resort hotels and select Disney World area hotels. It’s all our own opinions and thoughts on the process. Just FYI: we were not compensated in any way by Mears or Disney for this review. ![]() We recently used Mears Connect buses to accomplish this goal, and have all the details to help you decide if this service is right for you! The only problem is getting to and from Orlando International Airport. Renting a car at Disney World can get crazy expensive, but if you’re staying “on property” at a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel, having a car is basically unnecessary.īetween the monorail, the skyliner, boats, and buses, Disney World transportation can get you anywhere you want to go on Disney World property for FREE. Should you use Mears Connect to travel to and from the Orlando International Airport to Walt Disney World? ![]()
