Hello, Miriam,
Thank you for sending your question to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. When my family and I are discussing which Disney Resort we like best,
Disney's Contemporary Resort is always mentioned because we really like that we can walk from the resort to the
Magic Kingdom. It is a great option to not have to wait for transportation and instead take a short walk, especially at the end of the day at the park when many other guests are leaving.
Adding a similar walkway from the Magic Kingdom to
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa will be equally wonderful and add another great perk to staying at Disney's flagship resort.
When I last visited Walt Disney World, it was easy to see how much progress had been made on this walkway. I'm really looking forward to when it opens, too, as the path looks like it will be so lovely and convenient. However, no official opening date has been shared yet. To follow news and updates about its completion, I'd encourage you to check the
Disney Parks Blog for news and updates.
Wishing you a magical trip! Please let us know if we can help with any further questions. -Kara
