Upcharge Express Transportation

[AngiTN]

Ok so let me see if I'm reading this right. It says if you buy the 7 day express it begins the day of purchase. So you wont buy this ahead of time right, but wait until your ready to enter the parks?

And even more specifically, especially if you have more than a 7 day trip, don't buy it till you are going to use it. Either that morning at the resort or once you get to the park.

Ok that is what I thought.

Yes. $29 for 7 days. $19 for one day.

It seems the one day price is high compared to the 7 day. I would say the 7 day is the better deal.

It was $15 for one day and $24 for multi-day but they just increased the price. The cost for one day, even before the price increase, is basically a deterrent from only doing one day at the parks.

I wish they would let you add days to the seven day price, say an additional $5 per day. We go for about 9 days at a time.

Yeah I can understand that because right now you'd pay a heft fee to add on 2 extra days. I can only guess that they picked 7 days for a specific reason rather than more. It's a bummer for sure though for those staying longer.

Understandable. We went for 9 days this trip but didn't use the express on the first or last day of the trip. I found that to be best. The first day we just eased in with a day at Epcot. The last day we didn't have a park ticket.

I bet 7 is the target. Technically the $29 is for anything more than one day. Obviously it's good up to 7 days and that's where you'll get your most use for the price. I would imagine the majority of guests don't stay longer than 7 days which is probably why they picked that number.

That's pretty much what I was thinking myself.

Is anyone able to share where each park pick up location is? Or did I miss it earlier in the thread?

Yes, there are several maps of the locations posted in the thread.
HS is near RnR
AK is near Safari
Epcot is near SE
MK is near Buzz

Thank you.

I love this idea and cant wait to try this option. For the price, it is absolutely worth it to us. Feel bad for the AP holders...they should be able to get this benefit by the week also.

We have annual passes and were able to get the express for a week.

AP holders can get it for a week

What I wish they'd do is let us buy the 7 day option but take away a time limit. Meaning, we can buy a 7 day pass and have it expire when our pass expires

They may eventually do something like that but one thing for sure is it won't be for the 7 day price. If they ever offer something tied to an AP for the length of the AP it will cost more

1. I would like a printed copy of times for the buses from each park to the other three. Trying to keep the four schedules straight in your head is doable, but more effort than just being able to check. The MK had the easiest to remember because the buses were in alphabetical order: animal kingdom at noon and 30, Epcot at 10 and 40, Hollywood studios at 20 and 50..

Does anyone know what the other times are? I'd like to write it down, if so - as I agree, having a printed / written copy would be more helpful I'm thinking of using this service when I go in April.

There's another thread that has all the info, including the schedule. This is an ancillary thread
