    Hi!! We are planning to arrive to WDW on Monday morning 8:00 am and leave the car at the Car Care Center, I wondering if there is a transportation from de Car center to MK and how it works? Do we need to make a reservation for this transport? Txs!!!

    Hi there, Andres, and welcome to planDisney! I'm so glad you sent your question our way.

    Your visit to Walt Disney World will be here before you know it, and if you're anything like me, you're counting down the days until you're strolling down Main Street, U.S.A.! I hope you're ready to feel all the feels, because there's nothing better than walking into Magic Kingdom for a day of fairytale fun!

    One of the things I love most about Disney World is that they think of everything - up to and including car care. So if your car needs a pitstop during your visit, the Car Care Center has got you covered! Just like Lightning McQueen depends on Guido and the pitstop crew, you can depend on the Car Care Center to have you up and running in no time.

    Andres, I'm happy to report that the Car Care Center does offer complimentary shuttle service to the Transportation and Ticket Center. From there, you can take the ferry or the monorail over to Magic Kingdom. Be aware that this only works if you are leaving your car for servicing. 

    Now, I want you fully prepared for your visit, so I called the Car Care Center and spoke with a helpful representative. He told me that you don't need an appointment for your service or for shuttle transportation, and that the shuttle makes four trips to the Transportation and Ticket Center each day: at 10 AM, 12 PM, 2 PM, and 4 PM.

    Finally, you'll need to pick up your car before the Car Care Center closes (closing time is at 5 PM on weekends, 6 PM on most weekdays, and 8:30 PM on Thursdays). Alternatively, you can arrange to pick up your car after hours for an additional fee. If you decide to go this route, you'll also need to arrange and pay for your own transportation back to the Car Care Center.

    I hope this information helps, Andres, and that your upcoming visit is full of magic and memories! If you have any other questions as you prepare to cross the finish line, you know where to find me right here at planDisney.

    See ya real soon,

    Allison
