Come Jan. 1, 2022 less than a year from now Disney s Magical Express will no longer exist.

The free ride soon will be over at the Walt Disney World Resort.
Disney announced today that it will end its complementary Disney s Magical Express bus service to and from the Orlando International Airport for its Disney hotel guests. The service s last day will be December 31, so guests who stay at the resort this year will continue to be able to take advantage of the free transportation and bag transfer between their hotel and the airport. Vacationers have more options to choose from than ever for transportation, including ride-share services that save time and offer more flexibility to go where they want, when they want, Disney said in its press release.
