Who does BC share a bus with?

We have stayed at BW for the past 3 years and on a normal park day (not ME) we usually picked up the Swan and Dolphin on the way. This year we are at the BC and I'm wondering who else is on their route and if the BC tends to be first, last, or middle.
Thanks!
 
I stayed at the BW in beginning of December and we shared a bus with BC, YC, Swan and Dolphin and for this reason I will not be staying at any of those resorts again. I was just there last week and they all were sharing a bus again.
 
That is one of the reasons why I always get a rental car. I hate waiting for the bus and finding it full already because it picked up at two resorts already. Plus, I get to come and go at the parks when I want, and get back to the resort quicker.
When I stay at Beach Club I walk to Epcot and the Studios, it is nice walk and I can get to either park faster than it takes the boat to get there.
I sometimes will wakk through Epcot and hop on the monorail to MK too but hate to take a bus to AK.
I do need my car to get to the outlets and a few restaraunts off property that I enjoy and don't have here in CT.

Perhaps this happened because this is a slow time at WDW, but in 8 stays at BW or S/D, each stay being 7 days or more, only twice did we ride a bus that hit more than just BW Swan and Dolphin. Not saying it can't happen, but in more than 60 days at these resorts it happened twice that we hit all 5.

Depends on the route. During peak times on park routes BC will share with YC and possibly Boardwalk. At non-peak times and on the DTD route all five Epcot resorts may share buses.
 
We were there in March and it was fairly busy and the busses stopped at Swan/dolphin/yc/bc/bw. We were staying at AKL but did a lot of dining at those resorts and I was shocked that they all shared a bus.
 
The bus that serves BC also serves YC.....every single time. And the buses that serve BW serve S/D as well...almost every single time.
At the busier times of day (park opening and closing) the buses tend to be split up....YC/BC and BW/S/D. But, mid day hours they are sometimes all put on the same route..which is a huge pain in the tookus.
I own DVC at BW, so stay there a lot. The buses aren't perfect, but they get the job done. Remember, almost every other resort makes multiple stops. When staying at POR you have to make up to 4 other stops...makes the ride just about as long as the BW bus does when stopping at the other resorts. Same with CBR and CSR. When staying at the CR, you are going to be on a bus that makes stops at the WL (sometimes), Polynesian and GF.
At this time, only POP offers direct, non-stop bus service to the parks.

In my experience in the mornings the Contemporary shares bus service with the Polynesian or Wilderness Lodge. However in the afternoon/evening they share with both the Polynesian and Grand Floridian.

True, but my point was to show that the vast majority of resorts share a bus route with at least one, usually two, other resorts, or have mulitple stops within their own resort.
 
For all parks EXCEPT Studios and MK, the CR shares with the Poly and WL shares with either FW or GF not both (except after 12am at DTD)

To MK, the WL bus goes directly there.

Mornings before 11am you can find different combination's of the above although usually it will be CR, Poly and WL, GF.

Studios is the only park that does CR, Poly and GF. Studios and EPCOT do WL, FW.

EPCOT resorts from all parks except MK run all 5 SW, DO, YC, BC, BW.
MK runs BW, SW, DO and YC, BC.

Mornings before 11am, expect any combination.
