Will Magical Express ever return?

Unfortunately, I do not see any signs that Disney's Magical Express service will return to Walt Disney World. Like you, I enjoy a Disney vacation where I never have to drive around, instead letting the monorails, buses, boats, and Disney Skyliner cars take me to my magical escapes every day.
