Having a resort this big requires several different and unique transportation options.
Like many people who visit WDW I choose to take advantage of the Disney Transportation system. Whether hopping a bus, cruising on a Monorail, or sailing on one of the many watercraft, having someone else get me there is part of the enjoyment. It can be very relaxing, it can also be one of the biggest frustrations.
I've already touched on proper stroller etiquette when waiting for your transportation. So you should already know to have your kids out of the strollers before the transport gets there. This doesn't mean let your kids run all over while you wait. Keep them close to you, and out of the street.
Also, if you're waiting on the bus, standing in front of the yellow line won't get you back to your resort any quicker. Stand behind the yellow line! Most bus drivers won't even pull up if you are standing in front of it.
Ok, so the bus has pulled up and begins to load. Quickly get on and MOVE ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK before sitting down. This is especially true at night when everyone is anxious to get back home. Nothing is more frustrating then seeing a bus leave half full because someone doesn't walk up the stairs and fill in the space in the back. This is a big pet peeve of my wife who has no problem yelling at everyone on the bus to move back. Just squeeze on in, and make a new friend. The bus is no place to worry about "personal space".
The same thing can be said about the boats. Whether you are aboard General Joe Potter, a Friendship, or one of the resort launches. Keep loading and moving back until the pilot says the boat is full.
The Monorail is a bit different. Consisting of several small compartments, when one of the Monorails pulls up, move all the way to the far side of the car. Squeeze in tight, and don't be afraid to stand. You'll be surprised on how many people can fit safely and comfortably in each car. And alway remember to Please Stand Clear of the Doors, Por favor mantengase alejado de las puertas :).
This shouldn't have to be said, but I see it too often. If you see someone holding a young child, a pregnant woman, or an elderly person, get up and give them your seat. Standing for the duration of the trip won't hurt you and it's just the right thing to do.
When your transport arrives, quickly and safely get off and move away from the exit. Please don't try to gather your party directly in front of the door that everyone else is trying to get out of.
If you are heading to a resort that has multiple stops, please give some room to the people who are trying to get off.
Finally, say hi and thank you to the Cast Member who will be getting you to your destination. Just to be nice.
So to wrap up, stay safe around any WDW transpiration, make plenty of room for everyone, and get out of the way when you get off the transport.
Follow these few steps to make your day and everyone else's a little nicer.
And if you are heading to the parks soon, remember, play nice.
