Transportation site/chart

[Mehudicka]

Hello folks! We are leaving 8/26/03 for a week at WDW, staying at the All Star Music resort. As we have done the main attractions tons of times before, this time, we are planning the less-done Disney attractions all over their property, at the marketplace, at their hotels, rather than only in their parks (such as breakfast at the new Animal Kingdom Lodge.) We do NOT have a car.

Is there a website or a chart that lists... if you are HERE, and wish to go HERE, here are the transportation options for you, as a Disney Resort Guest... and here's how much TIME you need to allow to get there -- or a schedule of departing times, so we don't miss important connections? Or do we need to map this out at check-in at the hotel?

Thanks for the benefit of all of your experience! Viva Disney!

Be very careful of that those web-wizards... it's out of date, and has some inaccurate information.

Basically, to go from resort to resort, you need to make a connection at a "Hub." A hub would be a theme park, or Downtown Disney. The official WDW Transportation Guide will advise you to use DTD at all times. This is only for the sake of easiness, because DTD will always work, whereas other hubs might have complications.

Your best bet is to use a hub that is closest to where you are, or where you want to go. For example, to go from Music to Contemporary, you could use the MK as a transfer point.

*NEVER* use Epcot to get to the Epcot Resorts unless you want to go into Epcot, and walk through the park. Use the Studios instead.

If you ever have any questions while there, just find a Bus Driver. We're the ones in the dorky purple pants. We can give you any information in regards to transportation that you could desire. Asking anyone else (ie: Front Desk) risks getting wrong information.
