Bus Stops at Epcot Resorts (Hey Chip N Dale Expreeeesssss!!!)

[chirurgeon]

What is the order of the bus stops around the Epcot resorts? Which resort is first, which is last? I have heard the buses can get kind of crowded. Also what is the order for the boat that goes to MGM. I don't care about getting to Epcot, it will be faster if we walk from the YC.

Three weeks to go. I better get my packing started.

Well, it depends on the time of day, what park, and resort capacity...

In the morning, we operate Magic On Demand from the Disney-MGM Studios. Busses get dispatched from the Studios to the Epcot Resorts, Coronado, and Caribbean (when open) headed to all applicable theme parks. Standard morning routes are Swan -> Dolphin -> Boardwalk, and Yacht -> Beach -> Boardwalk. However, routes maybe altered for operational necessity.

In the afternoon/evening... DAK will go Swan -> Dolphin -> Yacht -> Beach -> Boardwalk. DTD will do the same, but between 6:30-11:30, the BW bus will be separated. During peak times, the MK will separate the Swan/Dolphin bus from the Yacht/Beach/Boardwalk bus.

As for the boat... not quite sure, but I beleive it goes Epcot -> Boardwalk -> Yacht/Beach -> Swan/Dolphin -> Studios... and then reverse.

Hi Chip'n Dale Express,

Am just reading the above incorrectly or does "Busses get dispatched from the Studios to the Epcot Resorts headed to all 4 theme parks" mean that there are busess that run from the Epcot Resorts to EC and MGM in addition to the MK and the AK?

Ooops! Typo! LOL... thanks for pointing that out...

I edited it to reflect what I meant to say... (Mind was thinking faster than I could type! LOL)

Anyhoo... the busses from the Studios are dispatched to Caribbean Beach (when open) and Coronado Springs for all 4 theme parks... Busses are dispatched to the Epcot Resorts for DAK and MK... (DTD handles thier own)

Thanks for the clarification Chip'n Dale Express.

We found that when returning from MK or AK, the bus stops were S, D, YC, BC, and BW. We also saw sometimes (didn't know if it was dependant on times or crowds) a seperate bus for S & D. We usually got off at the S and walked to BW, and noted that many others were doing the same as well.
