Early Flight Out

[graphite1326]

I have a 6:15 AM flight out of POP Century. Never had one that early. How does Magic Express work that early in the morning?

DME runs 24/7. You will be picked up around 3:15 am for your 6:15 am Flight.

Thanks I probably could have looked that up. I will probably have to check my luggage at the airport myself that early in the morning, right?

Yes.

Check with DME, they may be open, though you will need extra time for them to process the checkin, and it may be easier at that point to use the airport.

Is packing lightly and only using a carry-on bag for your trip feasible?

The airline check in desks at the resorts do not open until 5 am. So if you have bags to be checked you will need to stow the bags under the DME bus and check them with your airline at MCO.

I did not know that, thanks for the info.

The resort airline check in is not run by Magical Express but by the U.S. government. That’s why the hours do not align with DME. Hours of operation are 5 am - 12 pm.

I knew that they were not Disney employees, but I thought they were there 24x7 because people's outbound flights are 24x7 it seems.

Thanks for clearing that up.
