Downtown Disney Transportation

Hearing that you can no longer get from Downtown Disney to the parks. Basis eh saw this as a weak link in the system. People parking free at Downtown and taking buses to parks. True or no?

I believe that is correct, that there is not transportation from Downtown Disney to the parks.

The only park you can get to directly from DTD is Typhoon Lagoon.

and to the Boards!

Yes, that is correct, you can't get to DTD from the parks or vice versa. You have to take a bus to and from a resort to get to DTD.

That's actually been true for a couple of years now. Not a new policy from Disney.
