    For your next Disney trip you need to use Mears connect .they are the ones that ran Magic express before and they are more organized.

    that info is dated til Labour Day you can book Kids for free Adults like Mears Connect RT 32,- and one Way $16,- but only bookable now til LABOR DAY. And after that it is like before the same in total for 2 Adults and 2 Kids the same as with MEARS CONNECT cuz on Sunshine Flyer Kids are cheaper but Adults are 17,- or 34,- for RT but at the Moment booking now and have the magical (unless no themed bus takes).

    thanks so much for this helpful review! i'm going back to wdw for the second time since they got rid of magical express. last time was a last minute trip and we used uber to/from the airport. this time i'm trying to plan it out better and look at all the options. i was considering sunshine flyer but as someone with anxiety i feel like finding the sunshine flyer area and checking in would become a whole anxiety inducing thing for me. i think mears would probably be the better option for me since they seem to be more organized, and it's the same price anyways.

    Great informational video! We just got back from our trip and also use the sunshine flyer. I guess I didn’t realize how many other stops there would be, because we were also on the bus for over an hour (Wilderness Lodge). My kiddos are the same ages as yours and did pretty well but it was definitely a long time to be cooped up. And I also was starting to get carsick! 🥴 They also didn’t do any of the fun stuff like hats or tvs. Still, thankful for this option!

    • @thepixiedustedmom
      @thepixiedustedmom  2 года назад

      It’s so hard to know just how long that bus ride will be since it varies. I’m glad they did well too!! Will definitely pack more snacks or grab something before getting on the bus next time. Carsick is not fun!!

    But with Mears it could be even worse since they including off-sites Resorts as well could take you even longer. And Sunshine goes only onsites maybe also some neighbour ones but usually they served only on-site Disney ones.

  • @katysergel2280
    @katysergel2280 2 года назад

    Silly question, did they mention which resort they were dropping you off at when you check in? I only ask because we leave in a week for a trip for my moms 50th birthday and she has no idea I upgraded us to her favorite resort ☺️

    • @thepixiedustedmom
      @thepixiedustedmom  2 года назад

      They list off the resorts as you are boarding so she would know what resorts but unless you confirm which one she wouldn’t know. Hope that makes sense.

    Why do people do split stays at hotels? Do you get a better deal on the hotels? I’ve noticed a lot of people say that. Just asking bc in trying to book a Disney vacation for next yr :)
    Btw Love your videos!

    • @thepixiedustedmom
      @thepixiedustedmom  2 года назад +1

      We enjoy split stays because they give us the chance to experience different resorts. Plus you might not be able to afford 6 nights at a monorail resort but you can splurge for two and spend the other four at another resort. Hope that makes sense. :)
      Thank you so much!!
