just wondering ? i think they need to improve the amount or frequency of the buses not just during peak times.

Although I responded no, I don't really think this is a poll that can answered that simply.

First, which buses are you talking about? ME? Resort to Park? If so, which park? Which resort? What time of day?

As I said, I voted no. That's because I think that overall the frequency is just about correct. There may be times when more frequent buses would be better, there may also be times that buses are almost empty because there aren't many people going then.

I definitely think the buses from/to DTD need more frequency. We spent a miserable night waiting over 45 minutes for a bus. And, as you can imagine, the line that formed over the span of 45 minutes was enormous. Thus, when the bus finally did arrive, it hardly made a dent in the line. I would have believed this was perhaps an isolated incident, except I've heard other tales of problems with DTD buses similar to mine.

Other than DTD, I never had a problem with the buses. Granted, there are lines and waits at park closing for buses, but I don't think there is much to be done about that . . .

Buses cost money. The cost to add buses would be paid by the resorts and thus added to the cost of the resort. It's hard to answer this question without knowing how much more we'd have to pay to stay at a particular resort.

I've found the bus frequency to be good in the mornings an evenings (rush hour, LOL) and not so great mid-day. Seems just like public transportation at home. I expect to wait longer during the middle of the day when there are less people traveling.

FWIW, I also think many people tend to overestimate their wait time. I always look at my watch when I get to a bus stop to see how long it takes for a bus to arrive. Can't tell you how many times people who arrived after me complain to the bus driver about the wait - but their wait was always at least 10 minutes longer than mine, LOL!

you mean to tell me disney cant afford to throw a couple of buses our way without raiseing prices come on............they have more money than god.
i didnt list locations because i have had long waits to and from resorts to parks all of them. and all i ever hear when i am there is people complain about the buses. i think you are not being truthful if didn't ever get upset about the buses or didnt wish they would come a little more frequent.
even if thet added $$ to each persons tab for buses when you are paying 400.00 a night for a room how much more $$ would it really be.
maybe we should all chip in and buy them a few more buses.
