ECV on Universal buses

[Belle1962]

Does anyone have experience with the buses at universal and using an ecv on them? Type of lift, do waits get long? Any advice?

We use a wheelchair, not ECV, but there’s a flip out ramp, no lift. We typically get on the next bus that arrives. Rarely any other wheelchairs or ECVs waiting. Overall, really great experience with Universal buses, short waits, plenty of capacity, and friendly and helpful drivers.

Same type of mid-bus ramp as Disney busses. Operated by Mears (same company Disney used for Magical Express). Manual tie-down. Two spots. Not all busses are wheelchair-accessible so sometimes have to wait for the next bus on top of some drivers refuse to load wheels after other guests have started loading even if only 5 people are on the bus. They’ve just said to wait 15 minutes for them to leave then 15 minutes for the next bus if that one is wheelchair-accessible. MUCH prefer using the walking path to resorts even if longer and likely even faster to roll over to Endless Summer than wait for a bus. There’s also no dedicated waiting area for wheels at the resorts so rude guests sometimes try to cut in line.
