With Disney’s Magical Express being discontinued at the end of 2021, many are wondering how they’re going to get from the airport to Disney World.
Magical Express
The Magical Express provides free transportation for Disney resort guests between the Orlando International Airport and Disney property. The service is operated by Mears, who confirmed they would be continuing to provide transportation services even after the Magical Express is gone! And now, the service is LIVE!
Mears Connect will debut on January 1st, 2022! It will connect the Orlando International Airport to the Disney Resort area and you can make your reservation RIGHT NOW!

There are two options to choose from when booking, Standard, which is shared, uses large vehicles (buses), and has monitored wait times. There’s also Premium, which has a limited wait time and direct service.
