Hello, Rama Krishna! Welcome to planDisney, and thanks for allowing us to help you plan your visit. You arrive at
Walt Disney World Resort soon; if you're anything like me, your Mickey suitcase is packed and waiting by the door! Let's talk about transportation options to get you around the theme parks with ease.
How convenient that your hotel can take you to Magic Kingdom Park! The shuttle will probably drop you off at the Transportation & Ticket Center (TTC), so your best bet to travel to
EPCOT is the
monorail. After going through security, you'll hop aboard the complimentary monorail that goes directly to EPCOT. Walt Disney took great pride in the monorail system, so I always feel his presence when I start my day on board that sleek train.
A fun way to get from the TTC to
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park is to take a short walk to
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. Look for the bus station near the Great Ceremonial House. A transportation board should let you know when the next bus to Animal Kingdom will arrive. You'll be on safari before you know it!
The EPCOT monorail typically begins running 30 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry, while bus service from Disney Resort hotels starts about 45 minutes before. The TTC can be a bustling and energetic place in the mornings, so my tip is to arrive as early as your hotel shuttle can get you there. You'll have more time in the magic!
A final suggestion is taking a rideshare service from the TTC. Although this won't be complimentary, it will be a more direct route to either of those theme parks. I've always wanted to take a
Minnie Van for a festive splurge. These vans are available through the Lyft app and look like the most magical way to travel!
Rama Krishna, I'm sending pixie dust for a practically perfect visit! Make some memories, and please stop by
planDisney anytime.
Magic awaits,
Elaine
