Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Amy! How exciting you will be in the magic in just a couple of months!
As an international visitor myself traveling from Peru, I am a regular user of this super convenient complimentary service to go from the airport to the
Walt Disney World Resort and then back to the airport once our vacation comes to an end.
Upon arrival at the airport, you will first clear U.S. Immigration. Then, you will be able to get your luggage from the belt and will proceed to the U.S. Customs checkpoint. Once you are all set, go to the
Disney’s Magical Express, located in the Ground Transportation Area in Terminal B, Level 1. You will feel relieved to know that your luggage is traveling with you on the same motorcoach to your
Disney Resort hotel. Be prepared to present your confirmation number and/or last name at Disney's Magical Express front desk. A friendly Cast Member will print the voucher with the barcode for you to be allowed on the motorcoach.
If you are scheduled to arrive in Orlando between 5:00 AM and 10:00 PM and prefer to receive your luggage in the comfort of your hotel, you can simply provide your baggage claim numbers upon arrival at Disney’s Magical Express, and your bags will be delivered to you. Please note that it may take up to three hours after you arrive at your hotel to be delivered to your room.
I hope this helps with your planning efforts, Amy! Please come back with more questions if you need to.
