![]() ![]() That is why Disney does not pay me the big bucks. Disney would be foolish not to try to continue to keep their guests on property as much as possible. I would not be surprised if Disney has something new up their sleeve to monetize these ground transfers in a way that still would not make it cost efficient for guests to rent a vehicle. In my experience, Disney NEVER does anything without extensive market research and cost analysis. This is a huge factor that cannot be overlooked. They were forced to keep the money in Disney. Without the need for car rental, guests were forced to stay on property to shop and dine and play. It made it difficult for guests to leave property. That being said, in the spirit of the bottom line, the bottom line is that the Magical Express did one very important thing for Disney. Perhaps this is another of Disney’s plans to monetize ground transfers? Disney also charges guests for overnight parking, so guests who may now opt for car rental will be paying a fee as well. Back in November, Disney announced approval of the construction of a train station in Disney Springs for Brightline’s new high speed train planned for service between Miami, Orlando International Airport and Disney Springs. It makes sense that they will want to monetize what they can. Let’s face it similar to much of the American economy in 2020, the Walt Disney Company has taken a huge loss. It utilized the Lyft app and guaranteed that your vehicle was equipped with 2 car seats and drivers who were Disney employees and who were pre screened and monitored as well as knowledgeable about Disney resorts and properties in general. It was a private transportation option available to anyone for transportation to and from the Orlando International Airport as well as throughout the Disney Resort property. This service was not brought back after the park re-openings. I am hopeful that this means the return of the convenient (albeit pricey) Minnie Van. ![]()
