How late for bus to and from Downtown Disney?

[jacksmom]

We are staying at the Poly and I am trying to figure out how to get to and from Boma at AKL, and to and from HDDR at Fort Wilderness???? Coming back from Boma, I was thinking of taking the bus to DD from AKL then transfering to the bus for Poly? Will this work? And for HDDR, can I take a bus from TTC to FT. Wilderness?? Will I also be able to do this on the return trip at approx. 9pm??? Any help greatly appreciated!!!

I will assume that these are for separate nights and not both on the same night.

Yes it would but you might want to consider going to Epcot and transferring to the monorail there. It would be quicker.


And for HDDR, can I take a bus from TTC to FT. Wilderness?? Will I also be able to do this on the return trip at approx. 9pm???
Yes you can to both questions. There are times when Disney Transport will have buses waiting to take you directly to most resorts when the HDDR lets out. So you may be able to get a direct bus there. If not, take the bus from the Settlement Depot to the TTC and either walk or take the monorail one stop from there.

The easiest one of them all is the Hoop Dee Doo. After most HDDR shows, there will be direct buses to Disney resorts. The exception being for the MK Resorts, since they are so close. What you would need to do is hop the bus that reads "WILDERNESS LDG & TRAN/TICKET CTR" At the TTC, you can either walk to the Polynesian, or hop on the Monorail.



For Boma... I always recommend using Downtown Disney as a last resort, especially in this case. The reason being, AK Lodge, DTD, and the Poly are all in three FAR corners of property. Theme park transfers would be much quicker.

If you see a bus for Magic Kingdom, Epcot, or the Disney-MGM Studios bus, any of those parks would be a much quicker alternative (in that order).
