Parking at other resorts

[rexmism]

Hello,
We're going to be staying at Art of Animation, and I wondered if we would be able to drive to another resort and park there (ie. the Poly for the fireworks, or a meal), or do you have to actually be staying at a resort to park there?
Thanks!

You can park briefly to eat or shop.

You cannot park at other resorts to go to parks for the day.

Due to abuses, it's not unusual for the lot to be full so that non-hotel guests will be turned away. So if you want to be at the poly to see the fireworks, you might be sent to the TTC (where you can still park for free as an onsite guest.)

Hello,

If you have a reservation at the hotel, you can park there. To just go and see the Fireworks, they typically won't allow you to park there.

Thanks for the info, very helpful! I'm considering now parking at the TTC, but this would be the evening after we check out. Would we still be allowed to park there for free?

The evening of or the day after checkout? Your free parking is still good the day you check out.

But someone may chime in when they stop manning the the booths.

Moved this thread to the Resorts board.

FYI It's super easy walk from TTC to Polynesian - there's a marked path. I've heard the view of the fireworks is good from TTC, but not sure if better than Poly beach.

I think you have priveledges until midnight of check out day.

You can park when you have an ADR at another resort, they just scan your MB.

Seems you can't even park at your own resort anymore without bucking up.

Yes, funny how as I was looking for info on this, that news story was just coming out. Ugh...
Thanks again everyone!
