Magical express problem

DisneyDreamer16 · 03-09-2007

I know we arent supposed to be doing this but we have a family of 5 staying in a room at pop century. Does anyone know if this is going to pose a problem with the magical express tickets? Any info would be helpful...thanks

If you booked your package for a party of four, it may be a problem. You won't have enough tickets for ME.

I do think that you will have a problem since each person using ME has to have a "reservation" (a UPC bar code with each person's name is sent to whoever made the reservation.) Even infants must have the bar code in order to board the bus. No ticket=no ride.

Ditto Dana's message. They definitely scanned the code for the baby when we were there last month. Did you just not tell them about the 5th person?

Call magic express directly and tell them that one of your party is flying in with you but staying with family at the resort due to room size- The family will already be there so your child has to fly with you of course. They will give you a ticket for your extra person. We did this too- we had drake in a pack and play and Parker on the floor since he would have fallen out of bed anyhow. It worked for us!

Thanks so much i think i am going to try that. We would normally get 2 rooms but we can barely afford this trip as it is. Its becoming way to expensive for us

Our situation was we had a discount room for AKL from a cm friend of ours but they dont fit 6 in a room. We told them that our 3 year old was rooming with my brother who was already there. They just added him at ME directly- and they sent me a new set of tags.

I would think you may encounter a problem, but I say give WooHoo's suggestion a try!
