I understand there is no park to park transportation, correct? Or has that changed. I need to get to HS from MK kind of fast for a dining reservation What’s my best best?
Also... fastest way to get to Epcot from HS?
Thank you.

What kind of time frame are we talking? Disney's web site says to allow 90 minutes to get from one place to another if you use their transportation. While the bus ride from MK to HS may be 15 minutes, you may have to wait a while for the bus to show up. Then you will need to clear security at HS and walk to the restaurant. Keeping in mind Disney wants you there 10 minutes prior to your ADR time.

If you are in a huge hurry I would walk to the Contemporary resort and taxi to the Hollywood Studios.

Unless something just plain weird happens with the busses, walking to the Contemporary and taking a cab will in come about the same or more as a cab. (I have done it a few times and never really saved any time) A cab is not going to drop you off any closer than the busses and you still have to go through security either way. You are pretty much banking on the wait for a bus being less time than the 10-15 minute walk to the Contemporary.

About the only pro to walking and taking a cab is consistency. The walk and the cab ride will almost always come in around 30-40 minutes. The bus can be hit or miss if you catch it wrong. Of course I have had more than one cab driver take some bizzare back woods routes around WDW that would make the busses look like teleportation.;)

I often recommend Ubers and the like for quicker travel times like but MK is one of those places where the setup often makes the busses an equal or better option.

Leaving MK around 5 on a not so scary party day to HS for a 6:15 dining reservation. Walking is not an option. My husband is a wounded vet & uses a walker.

The minnie shuttle most likely will be the quickest. Don't know how much they charge. I think it will be as close to gate to gate that you can do.
