AKL buses Feb 2021

[Raven01]

Are Jambo folks having any trouble getting on busses to parks? Should we walk to Kidani?

I want to be early for MK - plan to be at the bus stop 90 minutes before park open and I don’t know if I should stay at Jambo or walk it to Kidani to ensure I’m on that first bus. No Uber as I have DD4 and no car seat.

(Also posted in the Here Now thread, but don’t think anyone answered and I thought I would get responses here.)

Was there in November and had no issues whatsoever getting buses at Jambo. In fact, they were actually better than I usually experience there... it is a resort I frequent.

I will be there again in March and anticipate zero bus issues.

How did bussing work out for you? We head to Jambo in 4 days. How early did you arrive for rope drop?

It was fine! I had no problems at all. We arrived 1.5 hours before opening for MK and HS. We did have a little wait for a bus.

For AK, we got there at 7 for an 8 am opening and the bus was waiting.

We made rope drop for all three parks (well, AK might have just opened now that I think about it). We picked a headliner to do (7DMT, SDD, and Navi) then focused on rides for my DD4 with lower waits. Headliners had 40-60 minute posted waits. I used Touring Plans for line information.

This was a mommy daughter trip, so it was easier for us to get up early, as we are up at 6 anyway. But those early park hours are gold.

Just got back a couple of days ago from a Jambo stay, and honestly it was some of the best bus service we've ever had. We did arrive early for rope drop, an hour and a half before park open. Typically we waited about 15mins. before the first bus arrived. Never had a problem getting seats either.
