Rainforest Cafe at AK to Pop

[Kanga1]

We have a 7:00pm ADR at the RFC in AK. The park closes at 8:00pm. Will the buses still be running to the resorts if we are just finishing our meal as late as 9:00pm?

Here is what I found

Official Disney Transportation operates according to theme park operating schedules. As a result, please consider park closing times when relying on Disney Transportation to travel to and from resorts, using parks as transfer points. In general, buses run 60-90 minutes before park opening and 60-90 minutes after park closing

** what date are you dinning at the RFC?

Don't worry, Disney won't leave you stranded. They will run buses until every guest is cleared from the park.

Yes! Rainforest accepts reservations as late as 1 hour after AK closing, and all guests who desire it are provided bus transportation.

After AK is clear of guests, we run Rainforest specials until every one has left Rainforest Cafe. It probably will take longer than usual to get back to the resort, as a single bus takes guests to several resorts, and the buses will wait until there are several parties on board. If you're unlucky, it could take as long as an hour to get home, but you will get there.

If the regular resort buses have stopped running when you leave the Rainforest, a Transportation CM will greet you as you approach the bus area, and direct you to a bus.

Thank you! This is good to know.

Yes you will get back to Pop! We just did this last month. We came out of RFC around 9:15pm & there was a transportation dispatcher right there asking what resort we were going to. There were 2 buses there, and they loaded them with about 6-8 resorts per bus. It did take over an hour to fill the bus & get back to the resort, but no worries, you will get there!
