Does the contemporary resort share bus transportation with another resort?

I havent been able to locate a direct answer to this question. If it helps with answers, we will be staying at the contemporary during the first part of april.

Contemporary Resort shares bus services with Bay Lake Tower. But you can walk to MK or take the monorail, and take the monorail to Epcot.

Yes, there are times with CR will share for HS and AK and the reason you have problems getting an answer is because it varies as to when. It's not always 100% of the time. DS is probably the only time it's 100%
I know on stays at WL we have gone by CR
I'm thinking I remember going by GF when we've been at CR
I can't remember if we've gone by Poly on any of those stays or not

CR almost always shares a bus with WL for DS.
For AK and HS, it depends, but there is definitely the possibility it will share.

If the signs at the new bus stop at DHS are anything to go by CR & WL share there, see link.

Contemporary/Bay Lake (one bus stop for both) shares with Wilderness Lodge. Wilderness is the first stop, Poly second. The buses go to Animal Kingdom, Studios, and Springs. The Poly shares with Grand Floridian.

Agree with the above - it varies depending on park and time of day but we have stopped at WL fairly often.

We used to walk over to CR to take a bus to DTD before they were offered from the parks.

This was always during the day, mid afternoon-ish.

Every time we stopped at the Poly and a few times GF was added.

Doesn’t really help to nail it down, just offering our experiences.

We've stayed at BLT twice and any time we've taken the bus to/from AK or HS we have never shared with another resort. Maybe because it is Easter week?

Time of day makes as much difference as time of year

Very true! We always take the bus early morning for rope drop. The time of return always depends but usually mid-day.

Contemporary often shares a bus with Wilderness Lodge.
