It really all depends on the time and what other resorts people need to go to. If people need to go to the Yacht Club or Boardwalk, they would very likely be on the same route. I would guess that Caribbean Beach and Pop Century could possibly be on the route too. Like I said though, it all depends on the demand at that given time.

If they have enough people where they can fill up a bus with just BC, YC, and BW folks, then they'll do that. It totally depends on the time of the day. If you arrive late at night, as I often do, the bus can make as many as 6 stops, often with only one party getting off at each stop.
Last summer, friends of mine ended up landing at MCO around 2:30 AM, thanks to horrendous weather in Washington DC, where they were taking off from. When they rolled up to ME at 3, there were no buses there, but the receptionist radioed one in, and they basically got a "private carriage" to take them to POFQ.

We got spolied when our friends gave us a limo pickup from the airport to the Contemp and back at the end of a vacation... We do this everytime we go now ... We save te "extra" cash for this but it is worth it to us and the kids... Get off the plane .. no bus line, on waits , no stops (except te grocery store and beverages... included in pick-up) ... we call for pickup to go back home and off we go to the airport (after swinging though McDonalds in the limo)... last time we got lucky and he had a drop off each way and were albe to get the HUMMER Limo at no exrta cost to us .....:sohappy:

Disney's Magical Express does have zones, but resort drop-offs aren't necessarily decided by these. The purpose of the zones, for passengers runs, is that the maximum number of resorts per bus is 4 if the bus stays in one zone, or 3 if the bus has guests for resorts in more than one zone.
Beach Club is in the EC zone, which also includes Yacht Club, BoardWalk Inn, BoardWalk Villas, Caribbean Beach Resort.
The MK zone has Grand Floridian, Contemporary, Bay Lake Tower, Polynesian and Wilderness Lodge.
The DD zone has Saratoga Springs Resort, Old Key West, Port Orleans French Quarter, Port Orleans Riverside, and Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground.
The AK zone has Animal Kingdom Lodge, Animal Kingdom Villas, Coronado Springs Resort, Pop Century Resort and all three All Star resorts.
