Pop or All Stars

[bel2009]

We are going to WDW next October. A couple with a 6 years old child.
We have already stayed at the POP and loved it but would like to try All Stars this time. I have a concern about the transportation to the parks - At All STars, do they have just one bus attending all the 3 hotels or is it separate ?
Thank you very much.

Most of the time Sports at least (not sure about music and movies) has their own bus. They will stop at the other resorts if it's a slow time, like mid-afternoon but Sports will be the first stop. I was there for two nights last Sept. and got on the bus around 3:30 the first afternoon and around 9 am the next day and it was a dedicated bus both times.

I kept a "log" during one of my trips to All-Star Sports.

You may find this info helpful as to how often the All-Stars "share" buses.
It takes the Buses about 2 minutes to travel from Sports to Music and about 2 minutes from Music to Movies

I also did some Park Hopping:
Monorail from TTC to Epcot----9 minutes.
Monorail from Epcot to TTC----7 minutes.
Express Monorail----4 minutes
Friendship between Epcot and DHD----20-30 minutes(We actually did make it in 20 minutes one day!)
