Tipping - Bus Drivers

[Rista1313]

Is it customary to tip the bus drivers to/from the parks? If so, how much do you usually tip?

Thanks!

That's not a tipped position.

The drivers that drive the buses from Park to Park cannot accept tips! Only Magical Express (to and from the airport) accepts tips.

What you want to do is use the #CastCompliment hashtag on the official Disney Twitter account - you share how awesome the CM was, they get a certificate and it goes on their employment record.

Oh! I assumed it was, just like shuttle drivers at the airports and hotels. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for that info! I didn't realize that wasn't a tipped position.

I don't tip the drivers on the park busses but I always tip the Magical Express drivers.

Those drivers are likely assisting you with your luggage though. Park bus drivers are like city bus drivers.

We once tried to tip the driver but he refused. We had a 7am ADR at chef mickeys and jumped on a bus at 6.30am that unexpectedly turned up while we were ordering a cab. We chatted to him and he dropped us off at the contemporary resort without being asked as we weere the omly ones on the bus.
