We are thinking about going to DTD on a Friday evening in June. We were there last October and parking was crazy then. I am assuming it will be even worse in June. Is the bus from the BWI any better or should be just skip it? We mainly want to go and grab some dinner. Are there any other ways to get there? I am hesitant to say park at SSR and boat over. It doesn't seem fair to the people at those resorts.
 
Driving to DTD on a Friday evening is not a good idea, especially given the current construction situation.

You might want to stroll across the bridge to the Swan and get the bus there. The trip will take 12 minutes longer, but DTD uses can be very crowded by the time they reach BW.

Thanks for the tip! I am not sure if we will really attempt it but this is great advice.

We spend time in DTD every trip, but we take the bus regardless of which resort we are staying at. On one of our last trips we decided to drive and it was a big mistake. The lots were very crowded and we drove around for at least 10-15 minutes looking for a parking spot, so we said never again. The buses aren't the most convenient as it does take extra time with multiple stops, but we find them far better than driving and fighting the crowds in the parking lot.
