Disney Transportation Will Be Available On A Limited Basis

Posted on by Mathew Corn Uncategorized

Additional logistics details are being sent out to Cast Members ahead of the planned June 22 reopening for DVC resorts and July 11 reopening for select parks and resorts throughout Walt Disney World.

Upon reopening, transportation will be available for resort hotel guests, albeit on a limited basis. Transportation will be available via Monorail and ferry boat. At this time, it is unknown whether transportation options will still include resort buses or the Disney Skyliner.

Plans to support required physical distancing as well as enhanced cleaning measures, along with a number of other safety and cleanliness protocols, will be implemented as part of this planned phased reopening. 

Disney is temporarily pausing new ticket sales and Disney Resort hotel reservations in order to focus on guests with existing tickets and reservations. Disney Vacation Club members can still make new reservations.

Guests to Walt Disney World that are low on data can now rejoice as Wi-Fi has been enabled on Walt Disney World buses. This confirms a rumor that we reported about earlier this year that the new buses would have free Wi-Fi.

Stickers have been added on the windows of one of the new character-wrapped buses. The Wi-Fi network is “Disney Transport Guest” and is separate from the other networks at Walt Disney World, so your phone will not automatically connect.

Speeds on the bus Wi-Fi network were acceptable, but not incredibly fast – good for general browsing, but not great for uploading photos or video chats.
