Hi!!! Any idea how long we should expect to get from the airport to the Contemporary Resort? How many stops should we expect? Thanks!!!

If my memory serves me correct the contemporary is the first stop and shares the bus with fort wilderness and the poly. It's about a 40 minute trip, i think.

Actually, I just took ME to the Contemporary a few weeks ago, and my recollection was that we stopped by Wilderness Lodge first. They are very close to one another and it doesn't really add a lot of time to the trip, but wanted to point it out just the same.

There is no guarantee of the time -- nor how many stops you might make as they don't always stop at the exact same resorts depending on the time of year, booked numbers per resort, etc...but in general: it takes 30 minutes to get from MCO to the resorts. Add from zero to 30 minutes wait time in the DME line, and another 5 - 15 minutes sitting on the bus itself waiting for it to get loaded before you leave. Then add about 10 minutes per resort that you stop at before yours. In the worst case scenerio it can take about an hour and a half....in the best case scenerio it takes about 40 minutes...in the average case scenerio, it takes about 60 minutes door to door.

Thanks for the pointers! We get in at 2:30 and have 6:50 reservations at Ohana. I think we will have enough time.

Wow. I have never waited that long.
