    ! If we park at Animal Kingdom and it closes 7:00pm, but we take the bus over to Magic Kingdom and it stays open until 1:00 am, will the buses still run back to Animal Kingdom that late after their park closes for us to get back to our car?

    Hi, Kimberly!  The buses from the theme parks generally run just long enough to make sure everyone has made their way home - which can be up to about two hours after the park closes.  This generally ensures that guests in the park who are still dining or maybe doing last minute shopping can get to the bus and back to their resort.  After that time, there won't be continuing transportation back to that theme park.

    If you are staying at a Walt Disney World resort, I suggest leaving your car at the resort and just use Disney transportation.  That way, you won't have to worry about your car.  If you are not staying at a resort hotel, you can move your car to the Magic Kingdom parking lot at no additional charge.  

    You may be able to get a taxi back to Animal Kingdom.  I don't know, however, how much access they'll have to the parking area once the park closes.

    I hope this helps some with your planning!
