Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Perry! I'm so glad you stopped by to allow us to assist you with your transportation question.
There is not an official timetable or route map for
Walt Disney World Resort bus transportation. In almost all cases, a bus only has one destination. Simply wait at your Resort Hotel's bus stop, and hop on the next bus to where you would like to go. The destination will be displayed on the bus marquee. You won't need to worry about figuring out the correct route. Transportation to the theme parks and
Disney Springs is direct. Buses run approximately every 20 minutes; more frequently at busier times of day such as park opening and closing times. There will be an electronic display board at your Resort Hotel's bus stop indicating when the next bus is due to arrive. You can also
check bus wait times from your Resort Hotel in the
My Disney Experience mobile app. This feature becomes available during your resort stay.
To return to your Resort Hotel, you will simply wait at the designated stop. There will be a transportation board in the bus loading area indicating which loading bay is for which destination, and overhead signs also indicate each pick-up area.
If you are planning to go from one
Disney Resort Hotel to another, a transfer is necessary. Take one bus to a theme park or Disney Springs, and then transfer to another bus, or monorail, boat, or
Disney Skyliner (depending on your next destination).
Perry, if you do a quick internet search for "Disney World bus routes" or "Disney World transportation map" you'll stumble across some independent websites that have created their own maps or transportation wizards. To be honest, the maps I have seen are unnecessarily complicated. The process is really quite simple, and once you have done it, you'll be a pro at finding your way around! If you are ever unsure, just ask a nearby Cast Member or the front desk of your Resort Hotel for guidance.
If you would like more specific transportation information, please feel free to write us back and let us know where you plan to stay and where you are planning to go. We will be happy to help you get it all figured out.
