Welcome to planDisney, Chris!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney! Even though your vacation is still a few months away, it's never too early to start planning your visit to Walt Disney World Resort. Have you seen the
Halfway to the Holidays announcements this week? It certainly looks like another magical holiday season is in the making, and I hope you're as excited about your December visit as I am for mine!
As you are aware, Chris, there have been some updates regarding transportation between
Disney Springs and the hotels in the Disney Resorts Collection. Disney's
complimentary resort transportation is available to help Guests staying at select Disney Resort hotels get to the magic quickly and easily during their visit. Beginning June 28, 2026, anyone wishing to use the buses and boats departing from Disney Springs will need to show a valid resort hotel, dining, or qualifying resort activity reservation.
The information we have right now does not include any operational changes to transportation between the theme parks and resort hotels or park-to-park buses. However, since operational updates can occur at any time, I'd encourage you to check the
Walt Disney World website for the latest information before your visit. And, of course, you can always stop by to see us again here at planDisney if you want to check on specific transportation routes and their availability as you finalize your plans.
During your trip, your
My Disney Experience Mobile App can also be quite the handy helper, with maps, directions, and more to help you navigate the parks. In addition to the transportation information, I enjoy using the app for
Mobile Food and Beverage Ordering and
Merchandise Mobile Checkout to save time waiting in line.
I hope this information has been helpful, Chris, and that you enjoy planning your visit to
The Most Magical Place on Earth at the most magical time of the year! If you have any other questions, please stop by to see us again here at planDisney - we're all ears!
Cheers!
Kristi
