Resort Buses?

[mcdee1980]

So I've decided to fly in the day before my "Disney Vacation" starts and stay at one of the Marriott Villiage properties that night (cheap when you work for them) and to avoid cabbing to the CBR I thought we could take the marriott shuttle to the park and then jump on the bus to the resort to check in. Does anybody know what time in the AM buses start running back to the hotels?

Since it is the park transportation bus I would figure it odd to have luggage with you, not sure if this would be okay though

People have luggage at MK all the time.. so I can't imagine this would be a problem.

With the number of people that forget things in the room (like tickets, etc.) I imagine the buses take people back to the resort when they start running (2 hours before park open, I *believe* -- for AM ADRs).

Never tested this, just a thought.

Yes, I do.

They return to the resorts after they drop off guests at the park. So, normally the resort to park bus starts an hour prior to opening, the bus will return to another resort after it drops it's guests.

How much luggage will you have? The buses do not have luggage racks and you can't block the aisles with it. Now if the bus is empty (and it probably will be on the way back to the resort at opening) you could place it on a seat to get it out of the aisle.

Now at CBR, the park buses don't stop at the Custom's House. You will need to get off at Barbados and walk over.

Shoulda figured you'd be able to provide an answer, Cranbiz.

Still learning though,

If I could not have provided an answer, Tyler could have.

Also, won't the Marriott bus drop you off at the TTC? That means a monorail or ferry leg will need to be added to the journey to get you to the MK so that you can catch a resort bus. Not a huge issue, but it means you can't just "jump on the bus" to the CBR.
