There will be buses to the resorts after the late show. Just head to the right when you leave the building.

You may share the bus with another resort or two.

Disney keeps busses running for awhile after park closing. They also know that people are at the HDDR at the 9:30 show and will need service back to the hotel. I'm pretty sure that you will get back although it might take a bit longer.

Maybe you might re-think your 9:30 ressie? Also, if you take the boat from Ft. Wilderness back to the TTC, it really doesn't take that long. I'm sure one will be right at the dock when the show is over.

Another suggestion, but don't know if it is the shortest/quickest .... take one of the internal Fort Wilderness buses (yellow, purple, orange) to the OUTPOST (front of FW). At the Outpost you can take the Downtown Disney bus and then catch a bus to your resort.

All of these buses run until 3:00 am (I believe).

There is no boat from FW to the TTC. Nor are there buses from the TTC to the resorts with the exception of SOG.

It also makes no sense to go back to the MK to catch a bus...if there happened to be one still running.

Just take one bus from FW to Pop.

Again, it doesn't seem to make any sense to take three buses instead of one.

I don't mean to question you, but now I am so confused I just want to make sure I have the right info...Are you sure there are buses running to POP after the show? Also, what do you think would be the easiest way to get to the Hoop Dee Doo Review from either POP Century or being in the Magic Kingdom already? Again, I am just making sure, and am very appreciative of the help.

George, you are right to question. It wouldn't be pretty to get out of that show and be stuck.

I have seen the buses even after the earlier shows. I haven't personally even gone to the late show but have read many times on the Transportation board about buses to all WDW resorts after that show. Again the buses are shared though.

If using WDW transportation, the way to get to the Hoop is to go to MK and then transfer to a boat to FW/WL. You can do that without entering the MK.

I have also read that the FW buses from MGM go straight to the Settlement so taking a bus to MGM and transferring would be another option...if that info is still current. But personally I would do the bus and then the boat. The boat is fun and you know it will be running right to the Settlement where the Hoop is located.

There is a current bus driver, Cranbiz I think, and a former driver (Chip'nDaleExpress who is also a moderator) who post on the transportation board. For reassurance, why not ask over there too?

Happy planning and again, it is smart to doublecheck.

Excuse me--I meant to the Magic Kingdom where you can then get to the TTC. Sorry to confuse.
