    I have lunch reservations on Thanksgiving day at Olivia's Cafe. Can my group of 10 stay parked at Old Key West Resort and take a water taxi to Disney Springs for a few hours then back? Is there a fee for the taxi if we are not staying at the resort?

    Hey, howdy, hey there, Tamara, and welcome to planDisney! Your visit to Walt Disney World Resort will be here before you know it, and you must be getting so incredibly excited! A holiday visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth will surely make for some unforgettable memories!

    Tamara, it sounds like you're planning a fun-filled Thanksgiving celebration! Olivia's Cafe will be such a great place to enjoy a lunchtime feast. It sounds like you already know that because you have secured an Advance Dining Reservation, you'll be welcome to complimentary parking at Disney's Old Key West Resort. This parking is limited, however, to just a few hours. While you're welcome to use the Sassagoula River Cruise boat transportation free of charge, traveling to Disney Springs might mean that you're parking for longer than you're allowed.

    Happily, you're welcome to park at Disney Springs for free, so you might even consider parking there first, taking the boat to Old Key West, and then taking it back for an afternoon of fun at Disney Springs. Be sure that the weather is on your side, because the boat transportation is subject to closure due to unfavorable weather conditions. When the boats aren't running, you're welcome to hop on a bus to get to your destination.

    You're going to have an absolute blast at Disney Springs! Did you know that World of Disney has the largest Disney merchandise collection in the world? You'll find everything from home decor to apparel to toys and more! It's the perfect place to get a head start on your holiday shopping!

    Tamara, I hope this is helpful as you plan your visit to Walt Disney World Resort. Please stop back by planDisney with any other questions you have as you count down to your arrival. And remember, this Thanksgiving season, we are thankful for YOU!

    See you real soon!
