Do the monorail resorts still share a bus?

I was surprised to know that the All Stars don't always share a bus so it has me wondering if the Polynesian resort still shares a bus to AK, DHS and Downtown with the Contemporary and Grand Floridian. I wish they didn't, it just makes it take longer!

Poly now shares with GF. CR shares with WL.

Epcot, of course, doesn't run buses to CR, so for Epcot WL shares with FtW instead,

I always thought it was amazing that the Deluxe Resorts share buses while the value resorts general have their own. One would think that the higher price the stay then the transportation would be better. I think there are just more options: monorail, bus or boat.

well atleast it is just sharing with the GF, so for the DHS day we'll eat at GF and then take their bus after breakfast.

The deluxe resorts offer walking options to parks; the value resorts don't.

Deluxe resorts generally have fewer rooms, more guests with vehicles, and guests who focus on the non-bus destinations. The Moderate and Value resorts need more buses.

Most have alternate transport not necessarily walking. ie Grand Floridian and Poly you can't walk but you can take the monorail or boat. Animal Kingdom Lodge only has buses but dedicated buses.
