A few might do that. And in reverse.
All those forms of transport (*) arrive at all 4 of the parks, In which case all parks are a transportation hub by the same definition. Which is fine, now that we know what the definition of a hub is.
(*) All except Minnie Vans though, they’re no longer running. They might come back, noone’s sure.
It was more a pot calling kettle kind of situation.I was quoted as saying I wasn't at any park after Epcot opened. Just asking the person when I said that because I honestly don't remember saying it.
When is the last time you actually visited Walt Disney World?
NO, there is no bus service from the TTC to MK, unless both the ferries aren't running due to inclement weather AND the monorail is not running.
It would have to be a very unusual situation for buses to be running. Like a need to immediately evacuate the park due to some type of threat.

I guess that comes with the territory when someone is bouncing from subject to subject without any effort at actual dialog. Whew.

Pre Covid, both monorail and Epcot resorts could be strict about checking ADRs at busy times. Plus some security personnel are stricter than others.
Post Covid most resorts are checking for ADRs and some resorts have refused entry to people who only have mobile orders.

Oh do tell.
They do not run buses from the TTC to MK and have not done so for some time, other than for operational reasons (as in the monorail loop is not working).
Every park has a "substantial bus terminal". DHS is big. And it has bathrooms.

Well I heard or read discussion recently that they used the bus from TTC regularly to get to mk. Perhaps they were going to one of the resorts and walking.
In either case, my original point remains. There are options other than the monorail.
I don't think anyone expected a taxi or ride sharing service - and that's in essence what Minnie Vans are - to be free.

Yes. Not free. And an emphasis on 'added value' as WDW evolves. It is a trend that continues. I welcome more options.

And that is much farther south than DS, it is south of ESPN by Celebration. I believe they even paved I4 to accommodate this station.
"Read or heard"..... Nope, doesn't happen except in very rare circumstances.
Depending on which resort one is staying at, there are several options - walking, Disney bus, driving, ferry, monorail, Minnie Van (currently unavailable).

I like discussions with you just not the muddying the water tangents. I'm better at one topic conversation.
Minnie Van was put in place to squash ride sharing services.
That’s roughly where the Maglev station was destined to be too if I recall.

It was way back, as in several years ago, and I believe you said something like “the last time I visited they were building the Epcot monorail line”.I was quoted as saying I wasn't at any park after Epcot opened. Just asking the person when I said that because I honestly don't remember saying it.
However since the search function only goes back about 10 pages I’m unlikely to find it. So I will accept I could be mistaken.

Pretty sure it was a vlog put I'm positive I heard it and recently. Monorail might have been down and they forgot to mention it.
