Wade 13 Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Has anybody used the Minnie Van service going to and from The Fort? Do they come to your campsite or do you have to get picked up at the front? Also do they provide car seats if requested? TIA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Yes, we had one take us to our campsite and they installed a car seat for my 4 yr old. Don’t have to request a car seat they keep them in their car. Best $25 we spent Wade 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Best $25 we spent I 100% agree with that, On our trip in October it was during early roll out and I was able to get an "unlock txt" from a cast member driver to use the service. The come direct to your site, and drop you at the door of the resort or entrance to the park. With a small child (3yr) it was worth it after a day at the park to not wait on the bus.

slices 16 Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Comparing the cost of these to the Disney Golf cart rental prices it doesn't actually seem bad. While obviously, they won't help getting around the Fort, if you are mostly using a golf cart to get to the bus stop or the boat then Minnie Vans are actually cheaper.Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 FB is buzzing and there have been posts on other sites... Pricing for Minnie Vans just changed. Now it's $15 and $2.75 per mile instead of the flat $25. They showed AK to Contemporary will now be over $40. They said the app will show you the cost before you book the ride. Have not seen an official announcement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 You can put in trips now and see the new price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 What cost me $25 in May is now $18.46 so I’d say good deal for short trips (this was contemporary to the fort) bad deal for longer trips Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Does this pricing formula apply for airport trips too? I think they were previously charging $150 each way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

slices 16 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Looking at the three Minnie Van trips I've done, the costs now work out Polly -> FW $26 FW -> Beach Club $33 FW -> All Star Movies $36 While I understand the change I wish they'd gone to some kind of tiered system instead. This also takes away some of the flexibility of where you get dropped, for example in July I got booked to go to Epcot but the driver suggested he take us to the Beach Club instead..
