A revenue stream returning after removing DME? Color me shocked.
It’s a decent service but don’t pretend it’s not solving a problem TDO created.

Airport trips used to be priced at $150 one way. Let's see what the new price will be.

So what about the parking lot trams?
From the airport? That would be AWESOME. Riding down the expressway in a tram...

Maybe that's the plan to get up and running with what's left of the current inventory and phase it out to be replaced with electric vehicles. Though as far as I know, all current electric vehicles are pretty small.

Yep, $300ish round trip, plus tip.
TWDC thinking about all that revenue lost to Uber/Lyft….Walt Disney World's Minnie Van service is returning this summer

Isn't that crazy??? I guess it works for families with kids or larger groups. But for the two of us would be a giant waste of money. We liked ME, but will settle for Uber.
Usually the Uber drivers we get while in Disney are fun to talk to.

Who would do that? Like, I have money but I'm not interested in spending like an idiot. Especially last week when my trip from WL to MCO was like $46.
Yes $155 plus tip each way.

Hope that includes a stop at Universal each way.
So they're only bringing it back (for now at least) for trips to and from the airport? Not around property? The tiktok doesn't seem to specify that.Walt Disney World's Minnie Van service is returning this summer

I look at DME as the anomalous period. I went to WDW many times before DME existed, and the problem of traveling between WDW and the airport was always there. Third parties offered solutions that you had to pay for. DME eliminated the problem for awhile, but now we're back to third parties that you have to pay for. With Minnie-vans, Disney is offering something like the third-party services, but in branded vehicles.
So Disney isn't creating the problem -- they have just decided no longer to solve it for everybody.

Where are you seeing anything in regards to that? My assumption is that they would be used mostly for around property, but could also be used to/from the airport. I am skeptical that airport trips were a substantial part of the utilization before (though of course DME existed).
