Grand Floridian Bus Stop gets bus arrival time display

Finally!

Sorry if this has already been posted, but this is incredible news. The SmartPhone app can't be too far behind. If so, that will be a huge upgrade and reduce stress levels significantly when you are getting ready to leave your room.

I just found a thread on this from last week. My apologies. But this thread has the picture at least.

So cool! Haven't stayed at GF since 2007. So many new things to look forward to when we go back in July!

Very cool! Do other resorts have this or is GF the first??

Thanks for posting the pic of this. We have something similar in the UK for our public transport system and often wondered why Disney did not do this earlier. Nice to 'see' it in action. Thanks for taking the time to take and post.

Have we heard if any of the other resorts are getting this soon? What about the mod and value resorts? This is great and will keep guests a bit more patient! lol

or let them know to run and get their car to drive themselves...

i like the idea but hope they change the graphics and try to integrate the board into the resort theme.

I was there when they were testing this and a research team was asking us all kinds of questions about our thoughts, reactions, and suggestions for the display.
Very cool.

I think it is a great idea. I wish there was a set daily schedule like city buses. I just hope it does not send people in complaining to CMs if the bus it two minutes late.

i like the idea but hope they change the graphics and try to integrate the board into the resort theme.

I just hope they'll install them at all the other resorts.

Actually, having this as one of the inroom channels is probably more of a reality than the Smartphone app. It would make a lot of sense for people in their rooms to check out the channel, look at the upcoming times, and head out the door accordingly.

(Not taking anything away from the Smartphone app though... that would be cool too!)
