Uber or Minnie vans...drop off points?

[megs1313]

I tried a search and didn't succeed....

I'm wondering where the drop off points are for Uber vs. Minnie vans for EACH of the parks. I'm trying to decide if it saves any walking vs taking Disney transport. TIA!

I know for MK Uber leaves you at TTC and Minnie Vans leave you at bus drop off by the entrance to MK.

The BEST place to have Uber drop you off at MK is the Contemporary Hotel...which they can do. It's just a short walk from there, rather than ferry or monorail from TTC.

Other factors to consider for Uber vs. MinnieVan are number in your party and whether or not you need child seats. With 4 or fewer passengers, no luggage, and no child seats, you can take UberX, which will be less expensive than MinnieVan. More than 4 riders, you will need Uber XL, which may approach the $25 MinnieVan fare depending on length of trip.

There are some Uber vehicles (both X and XL) which have ONE child seat and they are shown as a separate ride category. But availability could be a problem with that option. ALL MinnieVans can carry up to six riders, and all have TWO removable child seats, if you need them.

Minnie Vans drop off/pick up in the bus depots.
Uber/Lyft do not. They use passenger pickup/drop off spots at each park. As mentioned, for MK this is at TTC
At Epcot, it's near the electric charging station, sort of behind the monorail and the grass area beside the monorail.
At HS, no idea. It is in flux due to construction. It used to be behind the bus depots but last I saw it had moved.
At AK, it's the best of all, right at the front, next to the tram stop. We take Uber to AK almost every time because it's the best spot

Thanks for the info on Uber at AK! I had no idea they dropped right up front. We have used a Minnie Van to AK before, but Uber seems a little better, at least for less walking. (And much cheaper I’m sure)
