Perhaps the theater is where the new gondola station will unload within the security bubble. /sarcasm

But it is a short walk to a SSR bus stop.

That would depend on how you define the word short. According to Google Map's Measure Distance Tool, it's about 3,182 feet (969 meters) from the Lime Garage at Disney Springs to the closest bus stop at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort. That's 0.6 of a mile.

Interesting. I wonder if they've reconsidered.

Yay!!! We always get this because I can't eat ice cream really, so he eats the ice cream and I eat the citrus part.

It should be interesting to see what happens with this.

While I am excited about the possibility, if it is true, I’m sure we’ll see an increase in room rates in the not-too-distant future...

If they do bring it back I'd like to see them charge the same price in all resorts. I'd bet the cost of a parking space to build and maintain is the same at a value resort vs a deluxe resort.

So for once it would actually be “due to guest demand”

Has Disney backtracked on its decision to charge for resort parking?

There is confusion, currently, whether Disney has just been updating the site or actually went back to the prior parking policy. If you look at individual resort pages, they go into detail about the new parking fees at resorts. For example, this is for BWI:

Parking
Effective for new reservations made March 21, 2018 and thereafter, standard overnight self-parking is available to registered Guests for a fee of $24 per night. Valet parking is also available for $33 per night. All parking fees include applicable tax.

Complimentary standard self-parking is available while you enjoy select dining, shopping, entertainment, and recreation experiences at this Resort.

No. It's a website error

Disney is definitely doing something. It was there earlier. Yes it’s still listed on the individual resort pages.
