Everything Park Hopping - Please Read Post 1

[Northern Disney Girl]

Still true.

No, park to park transportation doesn't start until 10. But you could take a bus to the Contemporary and then walk to MK. Or Minnie Van is always an option.

We have hopped before the 10am buses start. As already mentioned when we went to MK we just took the Contemporary bus and walked over. We also went to AK once. We were staying at Yacht club and just took the boat from HS back to YC then the bus to AK.

What I can’t answer is if they actually start before 10 or not. We didn’t even try because we figured that was the time posted. I’m sure that it isn’t 10 on the nose, but how early (or late) they actually start I don’t know.

Thank you so much!

I will plan to take a bus to the Contemporary and walk to MK.

Park hopping /LLMP- how should I do my LLMP?

Starting at MK (party night) With me + 2 kids. Husband plans on joining us at HS (approx 3 pm)

How should I handle our LLMP? Kids and I have a park hopper. Husband has a single park ticket

Do I book the MK rides for me and the kids for Fri am. Knock those out and all the rest of the stuff at MK. And then start to try to book LL for HS stuff in afternoon?

And pre book husband's MMLP for HS in afternoon and hope we can try to get the times to reconcile when we are able to book ours MMLP after tapping into MK that am?

We will be back at HS Sat am all together with LLMP so can do all the rides together then that we missed . Also caveat my son isn't 48 inches yet so he can't so rock and roll Rollercoaster

There are two approaches, depending on how important Space Mountain or Tiana are for you. If one of those is a priority, book your first three at MK, making sure you get one LLMP for park open time. Once you scan into that, you can book one (and maybe rebook your Tier 2) for HS while there is still some inventory. We arrived to MK around 7:50 (EE, but there were bus delays) on a party day in August and walked on most rides until at least 9. The early LLMP saved us no time, but we needed the early one to unlock Tier 1 and HS. I posted a summary of that day in the Here Now thread on Aug 16 if you want to see our ride lists. I would book two passes for HS, then use the third one to roll through MK rides with lines.
If MK Tier 1s are not a priority, you may want to pre-book all your passes at HS. We were not able to pull Slinky or TSM same day, despite a lot of refreshing on a low crowd day.

Hello, I just wanted to confirm there were buses from one park to another again.

Yes.

Yes but, they don't start running until 10AM.

Are there busses between all parks and AK?
DHS and MK?

I assume there are NOT busses between Epcot-MK or Epcot-DHS.

I’m honestly not sure. You may wish to ask that on the transportation board.

Pre-COVID there was a bus between DHS and the front of Epcot, but I’m not sure whether it came back or not.

I don’t remember any mention of a bus between MK and Epcot (except when the monorail was down).

 

[1lilspark]

I believe park 2 park
Magic -> Epcot either walk/monorail to contemporary and bus or ferry/monorail to ttc than monorail

Magic-> studios or DAK bus

Epcot -> Magic monorail to ttc than bus/ferry

epcot -> Studios walk/friendship boat/skyliner from int gateway there may also be busses from front of the park

Epcot -> DAK bus

Studios —> Magic or DAK bus

Studios -> Epcot walk/frienship boat/skyliner to international gateway possibly bus to front of Epcot

DAK-> any park bus

What’s the fastest way to get from HS to MK? We don’t mind ubering if that’s the best option

Uber will only take you to the ttc. Fastest is going to be Minnie Van if you can get one otherwise probably bus.

Minnie van can take us directly to MK but u er can’t?

 

[AnnaKristoff2013]

Minnie van can take us directly to MK but u er can’t?

Correct. Uber will drop you at the ttc if you select MK.

 

[AnnaKristoff2013]

Only other plausible quick option is uber to contemporary and walk but whether that is faster than a bus will depend on luck.

Where will Minnie van pick up from at HS and drop off at MK?

 

[scrappinginontario]

Uber will not be granted access to Contemporary and will need to go to TTC. Access to any vehicle (other than Minnie Van) to resorts is limited to guests staying there or guests with an ADR.

Where is closest Minnie van can drop me to MK?

The Minnie Van drop off at MK is in the same spot as the drop off for Disney buses. Minnie Vans get the slot that is the closest to park security.
