Epcot to Disney Springs to Epcot logistics

[TheWorld101]

My party will be spending a morning at Epcot, and leaving to go to Disney Springs for a Bibbity Bobbity Boutique 2:00 appointment for 4 girls. We have a FP for Test Track from 3:35-4:35. Am I crazy thinking we will be able to make it back in time for our FP to TT? Are there buses directly to DS from EP, and vice versa?

There is transportation between the Disney Resorts & Disney Springs, but not between Theme Parks & Disney Springs.

Uber would be the quickest if you don't have your own car

It's about a 10 min drive from Epcot parking lot to Disney Springs. I can't imagine BBB taking 2 hours, so you should have enough time

Oh no! Any advice on how to get there from Epcot?

You could exit Epcot through the International Gateway (between the UK & France) and catch a bus from one of the Epcot area resorts (BoardWalk, Beach Club, etc).

Otherwise, Uber or a taxi.

Drive, uber, take bus to resort then resort to DS, walk to resort and take bus

You could take the bus from Beach Club to Disney Springs and back the same way (or Boardwalk) via the International Gateway. The other option is to take the bus to Saratoga Springs' Congress Park bus stop, walk to DS, then reverse to get back to Epcot. Since TT is at the front of the park that might be your best bet. It's a 5 minute walk from that bus stop to the front of DS and probably a 10 min walk to BBB depending on how fast you walk.

Walking from BBB to SSR Congress Park bus stop is only 1/2 mi., and then it's another 1/2 mi. or so from the Epcot bus area to TT.

Walking from BC bus stop to TT is almost a mile. It's about 1/4 mi. from BBB to the new DS bus depot, or possibly more depending on which load zone they assign to the BC bus.

You are spending the money on BBB and then going on the fastest ride at WDW.
Have you considered the effect on the girls hairdo?

 

[sharonabe]

I don't think it matters how you get there/get back. 2 1/2 hours will not be enough time. There's no guarantee you get in at 2:00. If TT is important, you need to change that FP or do it another time. I also agree with PP about the girls' updo's. There's no way they survive TT.

I would walk out IG and bus to DS and then Uber back, if you find yourself short on time. Bus back if you don't

LOL... clearly you have never felt the hair following the appointment. A hurricane force wind couldn't move that hairdo!

Walk to Boardwalk via the international gateway and take a bus from Boardwalk?

I'm leaning towards this option. And, my thoughts exactly regarding TT after BBB... no way the wind will mess up that hair! LOL I've heard kids sleep in it and it's still beautiful the next day.

Sleep, swim, sleep again, swim again. Yep, it stands up to ANYTHING!

That's what I was thinking. My daughter did it once, and a jackhammer wasn't going to mess up that hair.
