wdwnt.com/2023/07/mears-connect-and-sunshine-flyer-merging/Merging services, 24 hour service from all 3 MCO terminals. More info here: sunshineflyer.com/I went to this page and put in flights on saturdays later this month. That's our normal routine - arrive one saturday, go home the next. For the 3 of us, round trip is $95. That's about what I pay for a car service (not including tip). The car service is such a luxury experience compared to buses (individual pickup at baggage claim, quick walk to car, direct travel no extra stops or waiting to load, and they will even stop at a store on the way for grocery pickup). We'll just keep on doing that, I think.

Do those who don't rent cars, use Mears? This is the same company that ran Magical Express, right?

I hope this merge will stay with the Mears connect location which was the previous Magical Express.

I just read that it is on the previous Magical Express as Mears had done. Yeah! I guess I should have researched and read first.

I just knew that both services couldn't last much longer. I only took Mears, but the buses were never very full.
I'm glad that we're not losing this service and I wish there was something similar to go from LAX to Disneyland.

Well … there’s always more to a Friday / weekend announcement .
I am pretty sure the Disney Cruise lines are changing to a Charter Company .
I need to research for more info…. So don’t quote me yet.
I think the Charter Company is the same that transports all the College Program Interns .
Academy Transport .

I hope this merge will stay with the Mears connect location which was the previous Magical Express. 100% agree. Also hope Mears stays as the controlling partner. We did not have the best experience with Sunshine Flyer twice on previous trips and went back to using Mears. |

I'm glad that we're not losing this service and I wish there was something similar to go from LAX to Disneyland. I read somewhere to fly into John Wayne Airport (? Orange County) - is that hard to do? |

We've used Mears when staying at the Dolphin and then they didn't use buses, they used vans. I think our last stay at GF we were on a Mears Van.

Cheers.
