Disney’s
Magical Express
Delivers ‘Hassle-Free Travel’
For Disney Hotel
Guests
Walt Disney World
has announced an innovative new service called “Disney’s
Magical Express” which offers complimentary airport shuttle and
luggage delivery for Disney hotel guests.
Beginning May 5,
2005, guests of Disney hotels* using
Disney’s Magical Express
service can check their bags at their hometown airport, bypass baggage claim at
Orlando International Airport (OIA) and board state-of-the-art motor coaches to
the Walt Disney World Resort - as their bags “magically” appear in their room
upon check in. The round-trip service, which is available and complimentary
during Disney’s Happiest Celebration on
Earth event (which also begins May 5, 2005), is
designed to give Disney hotel guests the stress-free vacation they want.
With
Disney’s Magical Express
service, a family of four can save more than US$80 (based on
round trip shuttle or taxi transportation, plus tip, for two adults and two
children).
“We are
extremely excited to add
Disney’s Magical Express
to the extensive list of ways we make Disney guests’ vacations easier and more
enjoyable,” said Al Weiss, president of Walt Disney World Resort. “In essence,
this benefit provides a hassle-free experience for our guests from the airport
to our hotel room door and back again.”
“Disney’s
Magical Express service will set new standards for convenience,
value and comfort for Canadian guests traveling between their airport in Canada,
right to their rooms at the Walt Disney World Resort and back,” said Bruno
Jauernig, Director, Marketing and Sales, for Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, The
Walt Disney Company (Canada) Ltd.
How
Disney’s Magical Express service
works:
·Disney’s
Magical Express must be booked at least 10 days prior to arrival
through Disney Reservation Center by calling 407-W-DISNEY or a travel agent.
The service commences May 5, 2005.
·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.
·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.
Disney’s Magical Express service makes guests’ return to
Orlando International Airport hassle-free as well. Guests with flights later in
the day will no longer have to worry about their luggage after they check out of
their hotel. They can simply check in their luggage and then enjoy the last day
of their stay as
Disney’s Magical Express service will then transport them and
their luggage to Orlando International Airport in time to catch their returning
flight.
Disney’s
Magic Your Way
Disney’s Magical Express is the newest addition to
Disney’s Magic Your
Way program, an exciting new plan, which allows Walt Disney World
guests to create their own tickets and vacation packages for a customized
vacation. Available as of January 2nd, 2005, Walt Disney World
Resort guests are able to purchase tickets to the various theme parks,
attractions and other entertainment offerings that are tailored to the length of
their vacation and the interests of their group - and allow them to save more
per day based on their length of stay. Under
Magic Your Way,
a family of four will be able to enjoy a six-night/seven-day Walt Disney World
vacation - including a stay at a Disney Value hotel, with theme park tickets -
for as little as US$1,500 - which is less
than $1,900 in Canadian funds! (All payments must be made in USD.
Reference to Canadian funds based on foreign exchange rate published by the Bank
of Canada at closing on 12/30/04).
Disney’s Magical Express is also added to the long list of
premier benefits that are afforded to guests staying at Disney hotels. This
includes the recently announced
Extra Magic Hours,
where each day one of the four theme parks opens one hour early or stays open up
to three hours after regular park closing for guests of select Walt Disney World
Resort hotels. **
