beach club bus service

How good or bad are the buses between epcot resorts? Always look like LONG lines at MK?

We stay at the BWV every trip and they share a bus with the BC. We have never had any trouble with the MK buses, either going to or from the park. We have even been lucky enought to get on buses that skip the S/D and go directly to the park. I know there are always a lot of complaints on there about the buses but we have never had any trouble.

We were there over a busy time (4th of Juy) and YC/BC didn't share an MK bus with any other resort. BWI shared a bus with the Swan and Dolphin. They 5 resorts did share a bus to AK, DTD, BB and TL.

We just got back from BC two days ago and we had no problem all last week. The buses were quick, never crowded and we only shared with other resorts on the way back from MK. I was very happy.

We were at the BC in June and the parks were busy, but we never had a problem getting a bus to the parks. Never waited more than a few minutes. However, one night after Wishes, my DD and I took the monorail to Epcot, walked thru Epcot (EMH Night), shopped a little on the way, and still beat DH back to the room by almost 15 minutes--he opted to wait for a bus and that didn't work out so well for him

We used the busses in Sept 2008 and will again in December. We never had any issues with the busses

We were there at the end of June and never had a problem at all. Never waited longer than 10 minutes. In fact when we were there the BC was completely sold out and we still didn't have any problems.

We just got back and the only issue we had with the BeachClub was the buses. It didn't seem to be a problem to MK and back, because as mentioned above the Yacht and Beach Club didn't share a bus with any other resort. But going to AK on our first morning was a joke. The bus picked up at Boardwalk, Swan, Dolphin, Yacht Club and Beach Club. The first bus stopped by Beach Club and there was room for 2 people! So we had to wait for the second bus and that was full by the time it got to us and we had to stand. We BARELY fit on that bus. I would have been really mad if we were left again. There were some people complaining to a CM who was there and I think he wrote them Fast Passes. And this was NOT on an EMH day. It was actually a day rated as Green by TGM, so a relatively non-busy day for July.

The same thing happened when we went to DTD. This bus shares with Boardwalk, Swan, Dolphin, Yacht and Beach Club. The first bus was full, we made it on to the second bus but only because we struggled to get on (we were one of the first families there, but there is no queue so its a free for all to try to get on the bus). Some families were left after the second bus. I only hope it was those who came later and not some of the first families who then had to wait for the 3rd bus.

We walked to EPCOT so that was GREAT!

We also walked to MGM the first morning since we had just missed the boat. We walked on the path towards the Dolphin thinking it would be shorter, but then we quickly found that the path stops at a bridge and we had to go up to the street level, cross over the river and then go back down on the "Boardwalk side" and continue on from there. I still think it was shorter going that way, but I panicked a little when we hit the dead end and I was afraid we would have to walk all the way back around!

I have stayed there at BC three or four times, two of them being at Easter and have never had a problem with the busses.
