You can also walk to one of the neighboring Disney Resorts – Disney’s Boardwalk Inn, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, or Disney’s Beach Club Resort – and catch a Disney bus there.Before you stay at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the transportation items available. So if you do choose to stay at either the Swan or Dolphin Resort, what are your options? Fortunately, Swan and Dolphin Resorts are within walking distance to both EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Marriott might have chosen to do this to cut the cost of “renting” buses from Disney alternatively, Disney might have cut their ties with Swan and Dolphin or reduce their labor costs and prioritize their own hotels. It’s unclear why Swan and Dolphin cut the Disney buses. Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts cut their ties with Disney buses and are now using Mears Transportation buses.Īnother issue is that the time between buses is extended to 20 to 30 minutes, which is longer than what Disney aims for – although shorter wait times even at Disney Resort Hotels don’t always happen in practice. Instead, charter buses have to park at the Transportation and Ticketing Center (TTC). For example, at Magic Kingdom, only Disney buses are allowed to pick up and drop off at Magic Kingdom. Namely, charter buses have designated pick up and drop off locations that are sometimes far away from the Disney Bus pick up and drop off locations. While this company is reputable and very good, there are some downsides to this particular switch.
Mears Transportation is a common sight in the area, and they even operate Disney’s Magical Express and transportation to Port Canaveral for Disney Cruise Line for the Disney company. They are now using Mears Transportation -much like the Disney Springs area resorts. However, the Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts are no longer using Disney buses. They also offer similar amenities to the higher-end Disney-owned resorts with Disney-specific amenities – including access to Disney buses.
They also allow frequent travelers with many Marriott Bonvoy points to stay on Disney property. The Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts, owned by Marriott, are popular non-Disney owned hotels.
