Pricing Changed for Magical Express Replacement

It’s hard to believe Magical Express has been gone for nearly nine months now, but one of its replacements, the Sunshine Flyer, recently changed its prices.  The service launched in February launched in with introductory rates of $17 one-way or $34 roundtrips for adults and $10 one-way or $20 roundtrip for children ages 3-12. This summer, the service offered a limited-time savings of $16 per adult for all trips and children rode for free.

That promotion has ended and the pricing for adult rides has changed. One-way trips for adults are now  $16 for a one-way trip or $32 for a round trip, Children still cost $10 for a one-way trip or $20 for a roundtrip.
