Express Bus Transportation Coming to Walt Disney World

The Walt Disney World Resort is introducing yet another special, add-on service associated with the park-hopper ticket called "Express Transportation." This new option enables Guests with park-hopper tickets to travel more conveniently than ever between theme parks by whisking them from inside one and transporting them straight into another. After initial entry into a theme park, Guests will be picked up and dropped off by Disney buses from directly inside the parks.

By traveling between backstage locations, Guests can spend even more time enjoying the theme parks.

This feature will be available beginning December 7, 2016 when purchasing or upgrading Park Hopper tickets at Vacation Planning or Guest Relations. Express Transportation will be available at all four Walt Disney World theme parks from 10:00 a.m. until park close.
