WL ~ sharing the bus ???

[*Fantasia*]

We enjoyed our stay one day/night at WL in Dec. We didn't use the bus. I know this is the down-fall, their bus transportation.

Where does the journey starts? From FW to WL to CR to Poly to GF? Is this the order it goes? Doesn't the bus gets filled up fast by the time it gets to the second or third resort? How long is the wait for the bus from WL? And how long is the ride from WL to Epcot, AKL and MGM?

How about on the way back from Epcot, AKL, and MGM? Do you stand in line with the other MK resort guests since they all share buses? So on the way back in which order does the bus go?

Thanks for the infos!

We never shared with that many resorts. The AK/BB bus was shared with the GF. It started at the WL and dropped off first at the WL as well. We did go to FW before one of the parks, can't remember which one. And I believe the Studios bus also went to the GF after the WL. So it must have been the Epcot bus that went to FW. We never went to more than one other resort. I thought the bus service was fine

It's currently shared with the Fort Wilderness Campground and the Grand Floridian.

I spent a week at the Wilderness Lodge in January and the bus loop starts there. From there the buses would visit either the Grand Floridian or Fort Wilderness, depending on their destination. They never went to both the GF and FW, but that doesn't mean they won't.

WL still has a bus route to and from the Ticket and Transportation Center. That may also be shared with Fort Wilderness, but when it picks up at WL it will go right over to TTC. This route can be used to take the monorail to Epcot.

Yup, WL shares with either GF OR FW, not both on the same run. WL is always picked up first and dropped off first.

So, WL only shares the bus with FW or GF. Does this bus go to all parks including MK? Or the only way to get to the other parks is to be dropped off at TTC and then catch another bus to all the parks? Sorry for asking too many questions here. We stayed there just for one day/night but didn't do any parks.

There are buses to each park (except MK I think , I think you have to take a boat, but I'm not positive about that) just like at the other resorts.

There is both boat and bus service to the Magic Kingdom.

There were buses to the other parks.

Downtown Disney and Typhoon Lagoon Shared a bus and

Blizzard Beach and Animal Kingdom (??) shared a bus at non-peak times.

Tyler on the transportation board would know for sure.

We were there 10 days last April and found the buses to work well for the most part (I few glitches here or there but that can happen anywhere).

The majority of the recent reports that I have heard is that WL transportation is just fine.

Depending on time of day, and destination, the WL shares with FW *OR* the GF. WL is always the first to pick up, and the first to drop off.
