Okey Dokey,
I've been 'away' since ME actually started - any comments?
Thanks.

From what I hear, it's going pretty well. A couple people just got back and can, hopefully enlighten us soon. Be prepared to wait a bit for your luggage to show, but at least you don't have to wait at the airport for it. They may have to change things, though. I've heard that the cab/limo services have complained that ME violates MCO rules. The airport is going to meet with Disney to discuss changes.

I used ME way back in June and it went well. I arrived at MCO at 6am. (Red eye from the west coast) and I was checked into OKW by 7:30 am. Luggage took a little long to arrive but, I always pack stuff in my carry on so, it was no big deal.
The return was easy and uneventful too. I'll be using ME again next week. I figure that having to rely on the Disney busses will prevent me from going commando when my family arrives. Oh, that didn't sound right... :eek:
The latest from MCO is that the Disney greeters can no longer be in the arrival area. So, Disney has signs there to direct people on where to go. Apparently, some greeters were offering to sign up guests for ME which is a no-no.

We just got back but we didnt use ME. We did see the counter for it, and the corrals. The counter is down in the rental car area near Dollar. You cant miss all the big white Mickey hands waving at you, as this is the only place they are allowed to 'wave', since the rule change.
Each time we walked past there was anywhere from 5 to 30 people in a line. Each line represents a hotel (maybe group of hotels). This was on a Wenesday September 28 around noon.
Seemed well organized, no one looked like they had been waiting a long time.
If our kids were older, it could be a nice option.
Until then, we will still rent a van and drive to the parks.
