Hi I am new and I hope I am posting in the right area. Sorry if I am not.

I am going to try and make this short and hopefuly find someone who knows something about where we are going.
I am getting married in June of 2008 and Joe and I are planning our Honeymoon the next day after we are married.
Joe and I automaticly get first boarding due to the fact that Joe is blind and I am profoundly Hard of Hearing. But once we land both have no clue as to how to work the bus system there. I am looking for places to call about the bus system and Hotel numbers but I am at a lost. :confused::confused::confused:
I have looked at a couple of different places but other then that I am at a lost with no one to contact as to the bus system from the Air port to the hotel. IF anyone knows anything please send me a message or post something I am going to be logging on just about everyday so I can go over it with Joe and book it soon.
Thanks Angela

If you're staying at a Disney property, Disney's Magical Express is fairly easy to navigate, to get to the hotel - and it's included with your room! You get instructions/maps/luggage tags about a month before you travel and it has good instructions in there with a map of the airport. You just go to the desk, they check you in, and then send you to the right line for your bus. Then the bus drops you off at the front door to the resort, and you go inside to check in.

Very easy to navigate, if you're staying on property.

I agree with Drince's question.

Where are you staying? If a Disney Resort it is very easy, if non-Disney but still on WDW is is still simple but not as much as if Disney owned and operated. If not on Dinsey World the answer is "It depends on what hotel".

I completely agree. Since you haven't booked yet, I'd really look hard at staying on property. Yes, you are going to pay more than if you stayed off property but the perks(especially transportation) are worth it.

Disney Magical Express is a big benefit-you check your luggage at your home airport and you don't see it again(and have to lug it around) until you are in your WDW resort room. Once you arrive at MCO follow the signs for "ground transportation"-that'll get you to magical express. There aren't any signs that say "magical express-this way"-I found MCO to be confusing. But my sons and I just flagged down people until we got where we wanted to go.

Then once at your resort, check in should be really simple, the CM's are very accomodating. They'll give you map showing you where your room is and where the bus stop(s) are located. Then you can take Disney transport where ever you need to go.

And welcome to MP!
