Minnie Vans to begin charging flat fee plus mileage per trip

Minnie Vans to begin charging flat fee plus mileage per trip


For a stress-free Disney or Universal Studios vacation, let the FREE expert planners at Royal Carriage Vacations take care of every detail including dining reservations, applying discounts, and onboard cruise credit.


The Minnie Van service in Walt Disney World has been charging only a flat fee of $25 to move guests from any point to point in Walt Disney World.  It will soon change to a new pricing model.

Beginning September 10th the “Minnie Van” service will begin using a new pricing structure of $15 Flat Fee PLUS a per mileage fee.  The amount that they will charge per mile has not yet been announced.

The service allows guests to be picked up at or near the front of the theme parks and resorts.  The convenience has been touted by many on message boards across the internet.  Guests use the Lyft app to reserve their ride.

What do you think of this change?

I was just there the week before Labor Day and used Minnie Vans 8 Times. Lyft was running a promotion of $15 rides on weekdays, it was amazing!

How do I contact the Minnie Vans once we get there and should I make reservations ahead of time?

Does anyone know if the Minnie Vans will pick up passengers at the Shades of Green?

Yes I asked just the other day and was told they will pickup and drop off at Shades of Green.

Bigger Q, I think, is will it still show the final fee BEFORE you call for the Van, like an Uber or Lyft, or do you get the special surprise at the end, like a cab?

Some people may not know they have wheelchair accessible Minnie Vans as well. On a recent trip (we ran into you waiting for Seven Dwarfs) we used this service. You have to call 407-828-3500 and select the correct option. They were fantastic! We would not all fit in a single van, so they sent the accesibile one plus a second standard Minnie Van. We usually split up 4 and 4. Everything about the service was terrific. We did have to pay $50.00 in these instances, but it was well worth it! I am not sure how the pricing will change for this experience, but it may so many trips easier.

Used Lyft during a June 2018 visit. Didn’t need a code to access Minnie Vans -it showed up automatically when on property. The usual Lyft was always much cheaper than Minnie but we did do Minnie 2x when going to MK because they drop off at the park rather than the transportation center. We found both regular Lyft and Minnie to be easy, affordable and it changed the way we moved around the parks.
