DME to Kidani Village

[VA_mouseman]

How many resorts share the DME bus loop with Animal Kingdom Lodge? If there are others, what is the sequence of stops?

And am I safe in assuming that it stops at Jambo House first, before Kidani Village?

I'm interested in an *estimate* of how long it will take me from the DME desk at MCO until I get to Kidani Village.

When we went in December we had 3 stops. Coronodo Springs, Kidani then Jambo.

You no longer need to check in with the DME desk, you head straight for the lines and they scan and check you in there. From the time we got in line to the time we were in our lobby was about an hour. But we also waited a few busses before we were loaded on to one.

Last time we used DME to AKL we did POP, CSR and then AKL Jambo House.

There is no set-in-stone resort grouping or drop-off order for the DME buses, although there are some groups and orders that are more common.

Yeh, no pre-set groupings of resorts (although, as Jestocost says above, some groupings are more common than others), and no pre-set order. In fact, the driver decides the order himself/herself. The driver is told what resorts will be on the bus, but it is 100% the driver's decision what the drop-off order is.

The loop it took for me in October was Pop, CSR, Jambo House & then finally Kidani. It was late (11pm) and I was the ONLY Kidani guest! I took an hour and 15 minutes to get there.

Thanks all. I'll just have to cross my fingers that we're not the last stop on the night. If our flight is on time, we arrive at MCO at 7:30 PM. Hope to be at the resort by 9 PM, getting some needed sleep for rope drop the next morning.

Even the last stop is usually only 90 minutes from when you get off of the plane. You should be at the resort by 9.
