Space on Buses at POR for ECVs?

[iuki]

We have always stayed at POFQ and have usually stopped at POR Riverside with the bus usually partially filled and sometimes already full. Have any of you stayed at Riverside and had difficulty getting space on the bus with an ECV?

Thanks.

Due to the number of stops and the order in which the buses travel, it can be a frequent occurrence to have guests on the bus when it arrives at your stop.

Unfortunately, there is no fast and easy formula to assure yourself of an empty bus.

All of the buses have 2 tie down positions. Some of the new Gillig's have three and the 10 new Nova's all have three spots. One bus, 4815 has four tie down spots and can be arranged by a call to Disney Transport (Be aware that there may be a long wait as this bus is in regular service and may not be available right away)

Riverside:
For MK and DTD, the best stop to get an empty bus will be the West Depot. If you are going to these parks, avoid the South depot if you can as this is the last stop and you will be guaranteed guests on board at almost all times.

For EC and DHS, the best stop is actually French Quarter as those buses stop there first, then proceed to the South Depot.

Thanks. I printed a copy of your response to take with me.

Two more questions - how about Animal Kingdom? and which building is best for someone with an ECV?

Again, thanks for your response.
