Dropping off & picking up????

[Luv'nDisney]

We plan to go to MK in a few weeks. My son and I are going and my husband isn't. He will need to drop us off and pick us up. How is this handled? The hotel we are staying at offers transportation for $5.00 each person round trip. But the desk clerk wasn't sure how and what times it is available. So I was thinking it would be best to depend on my husband. Is there some kind of zone for this? Thanks for the info!

when yo uget to the auto toll plaza tell the CM that you are being dropped off. Then, essentially follow the signs to the Polynesian. Just before you get to the Polynesian, there is a small parking lot that used to be for Handicapped parking. Now it is for taxis etc. He can go inthere and drop you all. You will be able to see the ticket purchase booths walk past those through the gate and choose either the ferry or the monorail. He can pick you up the same way. Just agree on a time. 30 minute parking is allowed there and YES THEY DO patrol it. But he has time to sit and wait for you to get there.

Would this scenario be the same for the other three parks also?

cpl100, the MK is different since you cannot drive up to it directly - you need to go to one of the monorail resorts and then grab the monorail or if you do not mind walking, get dropped off at the traffic lights by the CR and it is about a 6-8 minute walk from there.

For Epcot, AK, MGM you can get reasonably close by car for a drop-off - not so sure on waiting times etc and how long you can wait but set a relatively firm time and there should be no problem
