Disney4me Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago A big change has hit Disney Springs, and we are here to tell you all about it. In case you did not know, there are buses that will take you from each of the Disney World hotels directly to Disney Springs. Disney Springs This is a fantastic transportation option and lets resort guests easily reach Disney Springs. In the past, non-resort guests would use these buses as well, however, that has officially changed. Let’s dive into everything you need to know. Disney has officially started a new rule that the Disney Springs buses and boats are only available to guests with a hotel stay or a reservation for a meal or experience at one of the Disney hotels. And those reservations must be within two hours in order to be granted access to the buses and boats. Cast Members are stationed at the entrance to the bus area and boat dock to scan Magic Bands and passes to confirm a valid hotel stay or reservation before letting anyone in. Disney Spring Bus Station This is important for several reasons, the first being resort hopping. One of the most popular Disney activities to do without a park ticket is to resort hop and visit different Disney hotels. However, since the Disney Springs buses can no longer be used to resort hop, there is no free way to do this activity. Guests can still access the resorts from the buses at the parks; however, unlike parking at Disney Springs, parking at the four theme parks has a fee. Which is why so many people would park at Disney Springs and then resort hop from there for free. Disney Springs transportation rules This also does mean that resort guests will have better use of their transportation perk. Since it was so popular to resort hop from Disney Springs, those bus lines could get very long, which meant that resort guests actually staying at these hotels could experience long waits to use this transportation perk. Disney Springs Bus Station We are sad to see one of our favorite resort-hopping options be removed at Disney World, although we do hope that it ensures a more positive experience for guests paying to stay at a Disney hotel. And if you had your heart set on exploring Disney’s Boardwalk Inn, the Contemporary Resort, or any of these Disney hotels, you still can! Disney Bus It will just require a little more planning and for you to pay for parking at a Disney park, or reserve dining or an experience at one of the hotels. As an important note, if you do have dining or an experience booked, you can park directly at whichever hotel you have the reservation booked for free.
