Magical express to Kidani Village

[pinnocchiosdad]

I have read that Kidani Village will have its own check in lobby. I was wondering if the ME will make 2 stops (KIDANI and JAMBO) or will we have to walk to KV. Not a big deal but I was just curious!!!

Yes, it will have it's own bus stop.

Seperate ME buses or 1 bus 2 stops?

It will depend on demand. If demand is high enough for separate buses they will do that. If not, they will share. Several resorts share ME buses now so I would guess that AKL and AKV would share a bus most of the time.

While we are on that, will Kidani have their own park bus stops?

I was wondering that. they may move the bus stops between the two buildings for more convenient access.

The rumor is that Kidani will have three bus stops, one at the end of the first building as you approach Kidani, one at the main building in the middle and one at the end of the building furtherest from the first building.

Jambo will keep its one bus stop.

It's unclear in what order the bus loop will be.

ok, thanks.

I'm quite sure they will be separate stops. In fact, the DME booking form on the member's website has Jambo House and Kidani Village listed separately in the list of Resorts.

Yea, but if you are at a park and heading back to wilderness lodge there is only 1 bus. Not a wilderness lodge bus and a wilderness lodge villas bus, correct?

Yes, but the VWL are very small. Kidani is going to be HUGE.

You asked about whether the DME bus would stop at both buildings (Jambo and Kidani) or only one. If you are now asking whether there will be one DME bus or two, I expect there will be only one, stopping at both Kidani and Jambo. Currently the DME bus to AKL/AKV also stops at PC and CBR much of the time. I expect they will add Kidani to that route and either run buses more frequently or maybe separate out PC and CBR from Jambo and Kidani. It seems that DME routes are somewhat fluid anyway based on the number of people. If they can fill a bus with just Jambo and Kidani guests, they would run a bus straight to AKV. If they can't fill the bus, then there will be CBR and/or Pop Century guests on the bus as well just as there is now.

If you are asking about park buses, Disney has stated on the public DVC website that the park buses will stop at both Jambo and Kidani. I expect there will be one bus making two stops, not separate buses.
