Bus Transportation at Disney Springs

[100visitsorbust]

we are long time disney annual passholders and never seen it this way before. We are at Boardwalk and Disney Spring Bus is stopping at Swan,Dolphin, Yacht, Beach, and Boardwalk. This takes 30 minutes from Springs to Boardwalk if you have no one that has special needs. Then tonight we say a Bus stop for all Disney All Star Resorts. My goodness it too literally 5 minutes and there were 50 people in line. What is Disney thinking.

I've always experienced the BWI bus stop at all the Epcot resorts. We just get on/off at Swan vs. riding all the way to BWI. Or use Uber instead.

Been this way from DTD/DS for a very long time.
Maybe you want to post this on the Transportation Forum, not the Resorts Forum

Agree. Just hop off at the Swan and walk across the bridge over to BW.

Agree with PPs. Both times I've stayed at BWI, I would always just get off at the first EPCOT resort stop--Swan\Dolphin and walk from there.

I get walking from Swan but the challenge here is tonight again when trying to get on a Disney Springs bus it was 100% full before even showing up to boardwalk. I have probably been staying at boardwalk for 10 years never seen all 5 resorts picking up at once. It is just too many people

Again, go to Swan to get on the bus. Off the bus/on the bus, when going to DS, use Swan.
What you have encountered is people parking at DS and riding to one of the resorts to get to Epcot, I'd be willing to bet.
Still amazed you've never seen all 5 resorts share to DS. They've shared for all the years we've been staying at BWI

Specifically for the DS route to EC area resorts this is not uncommon unfortuneatly, if I had to guess I would say that this is probably because the DS route is the less popular route and hence the service is consolidated.
