Hi,
I was wondering how many stops typically there are to Jambo on the ME bus from airport.
Thanks

This past august on a full bus Jambo house was the first stop.

This is so interesting. We have stayed 3 times at AKL Jambo/Kindani and AKL was the last stop all three times. There were 2 or 3 other resorts we stopped at first but I don't know which ones. All our trips get jumbled up.

Edited because maybe you were saying that once you got to AKL, Jambo was before Kidani?
 

There is no set "route". It depends on what the demand is at the time.
 
The stops are not set. They change with demand so there is no way to know ahead of time if you are the first stop or the fourth.

Last week, Jambo was the third stop from the airport. Art of Animation, Pop (maybe those two were reversed-I'm not sure), Jambo, then Kidani.

Sure there is.....whatever resort I'm staying at is going to be the last stop. Every. Single. Time.
 
Thanks everyone...I hear ya....I thought I was the only one who was always "last" stop.:lmao:
My mom is meeting us at AKL she arrives at 9am MCO and I was hoping she could make a 10:50 ressie at Boma for bkfst.
Guess we will have to wait and see:headache:
Thanks

The answer is "probably". 90 minutes has been a decent budget time for getting off the plane and to the resort. Of course that only gives you 20 minutes leeway, and if there's some kind of flight delay, she might miss it.
 
When I've been going to either Pop or AoA, AKL (Jambo and Kidani) have been on the route, as well as CBR or CSR. Usually, Pop and AoA were the first, with AKL being last.
But there have been one or two times that AKL was first. It shouldn't take more than 90 mins even if AKL is the last stop. The timing should be fine. I assume your mom is actually staying at AKL? If she isn't, then it's going to be hard to get on that bus.

90 min been about right for me to Yacht and beach club.....hopefully she makes it.

Yes she is staying in the room:goodvibes
Think I'm gonna go for it....worst case it will be 2 for bkfst and not 3:confused3
When I go to Beach club or Boardwalk always stops at CBR.
I stayed at Kidani once and I think I remember being last......but I'm not sure.
Thanks everyone
