    What time does the Magic Kingdom bus from Yacht Club start in the mornings? I'm trying to plan our day, and just wanted to double check what time the first bus starts...also, is it a direct ride or does it stop at other resorts as well on the way?

    Ahoy, Sarah! Welcome back to planDisney! Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is one of my family’s favorite hotels at Disney World! My kids have always loved the pool! It’s more like a mini-water park than a resort hotel pool. My wife and I can’t visit without eating at Yachtsman Steakhouse. It is one of our top restaurants in all of Disney World!

    Knowing the transportation schedule is an important part of planning your Disney day! The official Disney Transportation schedule indicates that transportation services begin 45 minutes before park opening. My experience, including at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, is that transportation begins at least an hour before park opening. The bus usually stops at the Yacht Club first and then makes a stop at the Beach Club before continuing to the parks. 

    Sarah, the proximity to EPCOT from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort allows Guests to walk to EPCOT’s International Gateway entrance (the back entrance to EPCOT). The walk from the resort to EPCOT is one of my favorites at Disney World. Guests can use boat transportation from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort to Hollywood Studios! To reach Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom, you will need bus transportation.

    One of the best parts of the Walt Disney World Resort is that transportation is complimentary for Guests! It is one of the great perks of being a Guest at Disney World!

    Dreams do come true!
