Navigating the CBR buses...

Can anyone advise on the best bus stop to use for the least amount of stops at Caribbean Beach Resort? TIA!

Here is a post that I copied last year, so it could have changed.

• If you’re headed to the Magic Kingdom, Downtown Disney or Typhoon Lagoon, the bus usually starts in Martinique, and then goes on to Trinidad North, Trinidad South, Jamaica, Aruba, Barbados and then it exits the resort and goes to your destination.
• If you’re headed to Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios or Blizzard Beach, the bus usually starts at Jamaica, then goes on to Aruba, Barbados, Martinique, Old Port Royale, Trinidad North, Trinidad South, and then it exits the resort and goes to your destination.
• Going back to Caribbean Beach is unpredictable. This is because the buses can change their destination on the way back. So for example, even though your bus is returning to Caribbean Beach from Hollywood Studios, it may be heading out to Magic Kingdom after it picks more guests up at Caribbean Beach. This means that you won’t be able to predict the order of the stops inside the resort.

In addition to buzznina's info, this from the CBR resort thread:


It has been reported that during busiertimes, two buses will enter the resort at one time. One bus will service one side of the resort and the other bus will service the other side of the resort. For example: Two Magic Kingdom buses enter the resort at the same time. One will pick up in Jamaica, Aruba and Barbados and then leave the resort. One will pick up in Martinique, Old Port Royale, Trinidad North & Trinidad South.

Basically- just go to the nearest bus stop in the mornings. Chances are if you aren't on the bus waiting to finish making the internal stops, you're waiting at the bus stop for it to get to you. Either way, you're waiting.

Really good point, lol. Thanks!
