    if a friend visits me at my resort am i allowed to take them to another resorr for a quick service meal using disney transportation even if they dont have a park ticket or room reservation?

    Hi James!

    Welcome to planDisney! That sounds like the best way to make an already fun vacation even more special! 

    Off-property guests are more than welcome to use Disney World transportation to get around, with one exception. If an off-property guest would like to take Disney World transportation specifically from Disney Springs to the Disney World resorts, they will need a dining or Enchanting Extras reservation. Otherwise, they’ll be able to hop aboard any other transportation without one of those reservations! 

    It’s good to note, though, that if your friend will be driving in to visit you, they will need a dining or Enchanting Extras reservation at your resort in order to park there. If they don’t have a reservation, I recommend that they park at a nearby theme park, then take transportation from there to meet you at your resort (or wherever you’ll be heading for your meal!). 

    I hope that all makes sense! If you have any other questions as you continue to plan, feel free to come back and visit us. Have the best time visiting with your friend!
