How does the Disneyland Paris Express Luggage Service work?
This service is for Disneyland ticket holders that are traveling to their hotel. If you are staying at a Disney hotel or preferred hotel and you are taking the Eurostar or TGV high-speed trains, don’t waste your time checking in at your hotel and getting your bags together.

Once you are onboard the Eurostar heading France, a Disney employee will come around with you Express Luggage Pack, take note of how many pieces of luggage you will be travelling with and checking in.
What Is Inside The Disneyland Paris Express Luggage Service Pack ?
A Welcome Letter
My children love reading this as it’s the start of their holiday adventure!
Luggage Labels
Enough for each piece of luggage you are checking in, each label will need your travel dates and family name, attach them to your case but endure you keep hold of the bottom stub to be able to retrieve them when you arrive.
Check-in form
One form per room, ensure you complete this prior to check in to enable you to access your room key quicker, after being in a large queue many years ago and having 4 tired grumpy children, this is amazing!
Park Tickets
For the duration of your stay, the children love these as they have different disney characters on them and they love putting them into the ticket machine before pushing the turnstile to enter.

How Do My Belongings Get To The Hotel Using The Disneyland Paris Express Luggage Service ?
Once you arrive and get off the Eurostar you head straight up to Level 1 with your luggage and head over to the Express Luggage Area, you can’t miss it, as its the booth with all of the Disney Characters on!
The Disney Express counter is open from 08:00am to 09:30pm, 7 days a week and is located at the top floor of Marne-la-Vallée station.
Once you have deposited your luggage you are free to walk straight into either of the Parks, as you already have your passes and meal vouchers in the Disney Pack you were given on the Eurostar.
Knowing that your belongings will be safely transported to your hotel and it will all be there once your time at the park is over, giving you even more time to enjoy the Magic of Disneyland Paris.
When you decide to go to the hotel, depending on which one you are staying at either walk directly there or head over to the bus stop and jump on the one with the name of your hotel and you will arrive at reception with your completed form for a speedy check in.
If there are more than one adult in the party, I would advise one queue for the key and another grab everyone’s luggage.
