Caribbean Beach Buses for Rope Drop

[wisblue]

What has it been like getting buses from CBR to MK or DAK for rope drop.

Specifically, what time have the buses been starting and how early have they been arriving at the parks? With the 7 bus stops and lower bus capacity, have there been enough buses to provide service to the guests at the later stops?

Any recent experiences taking a bus from CBR to either MK or DAK at rope drop?

At the Boardwalk last week we had good results getting to the bus stop at 6:30, getting on the first bus ( which arrived 15-20 minutes later) and getting to the park just as guests were being let into the park (at both DAK and MK). That allowed us to get quick rides of FOP and 7DMT.

I’m wondering if the same approach has been working for guests at CBR and how much it depends on what area you are in.

We stayed in October which isn't that recent, but it seemed like they ran two bus routes. Some buses came into Jamaica and then Aruba. while other buses stopped at Martinique, Old Port Royale, Barbados, then Trinidad. We walked up to the Jamaica bus stop about 30 minutes before opening and there was an MK bus that pulled up right then. There was a line of 5-6 families waiting on an AK bus that said that was the 3rd or 4th MK bus since they had been waiting, with no AK showing up.

This thread has lots of people's experience and this question has been asked on there several times. Most people suggest getting to the bus stop 90 minutes before park opening. https://www.disboards.com/threads/disneys-caribbean-beach-resort-information-questions.3461094/
