Disney World Advice!

Well when CM and i stayed at the same resort way back in Oct 2001 whether it was cuz after 9/11 or just magic i don't know but our room was a short 3 minute walk to the nearest bus stop. Where i can boast we never had to wait more than 10 minutes for the first bus. We never had it overcrowded to a park that we had to stand (to my recollection). Never making more than 2 stops getting us to our park of choice in time for early opening with time to spare one morning for Magic Kingdom (that we had to walk around killing time). I know we took the boat once and used the monorail to go from MK to Epcot over and over again.

I would not rent a car. Waste of money to me. But then it depends i guess on time of year that you go to WDW. I know that at more crowded times (summer, holidays) that with more visitors that will happen with the bus system there. But if you go in off season then you shouldn't have to worry about taking the bus to the parks.

THe only drawback yes there is one was at the end of the night but then we didn't have to wait maybe more than 2 bus fulls and we were one of the first stops believe it or not so even though we did have to stand a couple of bus rides it wasn't unbearable. Even if you are going to Universal IOA you can either take a taxi (hey i am that lazy yes) or else if big enough group one can rent a van for the day. Is my way of looking at it.
