Disney4me Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 There are a lot of rules in Disney World. Disney Bus Most of them are relatively simple, rules that you find at most theme parks, but others are specific to Disney. For example, children under the age of 7 must be accompanied by someone over the age of 14 to board an attraction, and they can be specific about what clothing is allowed in the parks (other companies don’t seem to care either way unless it’s really inappropriate), just to name a few. We have to admit, too — we so wish Disney would do away with this transportation rule because it would make all our lives so much easier! When you drive to Magic Kingdom yourself, you’ll find that you park at the Transportation and Ticket Center and then take the Monorail or Ferryboat to the park. This easily can add 15-30 minutes to your day depending on how busy security is, which can really mess up plans if you’re not budgeting it in already. If you take the complimentary shuttle from Disney’s Swan and Dolphin Hotels, you’ll also be brought to the TTC instead of the park. Monorail line However, if you take a Disney bus from another Disney World park or one of Disney World’s hotels, you’ll be brought straight to Magic Kingdom instead of the TTC, saving you valuable time. You’ll still go through security, but at least you won’t have to take another mode of transportation to get to the park — instead you’ll just walk forward to the front gates. TTC Security The rule we wish would change? Well, if you take a rideshare to Magic Kingdom, aka a Lyft or an Uber, you’ll be dropped off at the TTC, NOT Magic Kingdom. If you take a Minnie Van (Disney’s private rideshare that they’ve partnered with Lyft for) you’ll be brought to Magic Kingdom directly, but those are often more expensive than traditional rideshares, and some people don’t know about them. TTC Rideshare We get it — rideshares are driven by people who aren’t Disney World Cast Members, unlike Minnie Vans, so it wouldn’t make a ton of sense for them to get special permission to drive straight to the Magic Kingdom, and it might confuse drivers and the app they use for directions, but we can dream, right? Minnie Vans If you’re trying to save time and are traveling with a large group, then taking a Minnie Van will likely be a great option! You can book one through Lyft app while you’re on Disney World property, and you’ll see a Minnie Van option show up along with other regular Lyft choices. We’ve taken these many times before and have really enjoyed them, but think they’re most worth it for families with young kids who need carseats and large groups (especially ones where the bill can be split between everyone).
