No. The Four Seasons does not have all of the perks of a Disney owned resorts.

No Disney Transportation to any parks, DTD or Water Parks
No Magical Express
No Charging purchases to your room
No access to Dining Plan
No EMH

I haven't heard if guests of the Four Seasons will have access to FP+ reservations 60 days out like the guests of Disney owned resorts and the Swan and Dolphin.

They do have transportation (don't know if it is Disney or not) but it is a bus to the theme parks. It was in a news article and on the internet. Disney also has a desk in the lobby for Disney planning etc. Their website indicated transportation to the parks hourly for some situations and by the half hour for others. This i verified with 4 Seasons. However, they didn't know about ME but were hoping to get it. Just wondering if anyone had more info.

Yes, there is transportation to the parks but it is not Disney buses like I said. Transportation is provided by the Four Seasons and the buses run once an hour to Epcot, Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios. They run once every 30 minutes to Magic Kingdom and do not run at all to the Water Parks or Downtown Disney.

As of now they are not going to be getting Magical Express because the Four Seasons does not want to pay for it. It's the same reason the Swan and Dolphin don't have ME, they don't want to pay for it. Disney doesn't mind paying for it because it keeps people trapped and spending more $$ in the Disney bubble. It doesn't make any sense for the non Disney resorts to pay Mears for Magical Express because it doesn't get them a return on their investment.
