How do you get to Disneyland Paris?

What to do with your luggage on a Disney Halloween trip
Halloween is one of the busiest seasons at all three Disney resorts. Big suitcases are awkward in park queues and parade crowds, and lockers at park entrances and stations often fill up. If you're heading straight from the airport to the park, or switching hotels or catching a flight after your visit, dragging luggage through train transfers is hard work; in Paris, busy stations and tourist areas also make large bags harder to keep an eye on.
LuggAgent picks up your bags from a hotel, airport or station and delivers them to your next stop the same day or the next day, so you can walk into the park empty-handed. See Tokyo Disney luggage delivery, Hong Kong Disneyland luggage delivery and Disneyland Paris luggage delivery for coverage and details.
If you fly into Narita and are staying at a Tokyo Disney Resort hotel, hand us your bags at the airport and we'll take them to your hotel:
