Transportation wait time boards

[ncissg1]

Has anyone seen anything else about the bus transportation wait time boards that were being tested earlier this year. We had some friends at Saratoga in September but they did not see the boards there so I was wondering if they are still in testing or not...

Most resorts have them in place now.

Ok thanks... I wanted to know for our upcoming trip in April.

Are there any pictures of these boards? Are they there just to tell us when busses arrive or does it also include how long it takes to get to the parks?

The resorts that currently have the monitors are Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani bus stop, All Star Sports, All Star Movies, All Star Music, Port Orleans Riverside, Fort Wilderness, Contemporary and the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.

To those who have experienced the boards:how accurate do you find them to be?

I found them to be very accurate when we stayed at POR. It's extremely helpful to know exactly when your bus is coming, especially if you have a stroller, diaper bag, etc.

To make it even more convenient, they could find a way to present that screen in the rooms on a specific TV channel.

That's great to hear-thank you. I agree-maybe it won't be long before they are posted on the TV or the MDE app.

At the resorts I've stayed at, the bus always arrived at the posted time. Of course the times can change as you wait (a couple minutes later or earlier) depending on the bus location. But that is still preferable than knowing nothing at all!

This is great thank you, I agree. Can't count how many times we've seen three buses for one park go by, wondering when our parks bus would arrive. The boards will help a lot!

Lame, so I'll get construction noise, but no bus wait monitor at the Wilderness Lodge?

ETA, I see they do at the WL, looks like the info you had there is from last August and things have changed.

You'd think they'd make the My Disney Experience app now have travel times for buses or wait times while your at the resort....But, no they don't.

The one at Kidani was pretty much always accurate.

Of course the one time we're not staying at POR, they finally have them! We'll be at OKW at the end of January. Wish they had them there.

Sorry if this is posted somewhere else. When are the other resorts expected to get the wait time boards? I am staying at the Polynesian the end of Feb.

TIA!

at the wilderness, an additional monitor should be posted in the lobby. Then, based on the bus wait time to MK, you could decide which way to walk. To the bus, or to the boat.
Love the monitors. Glad they will be there on our upcoming December visit.

Anyone know if they've shown up at Art of Animation yet?

They are extremely accurate for one main reason, they continually change the ETA! lol.

Moving target, something else to look at while you wait...

I sure hope they get them at Boardwalk soon. There where great on our last trip at Contemporary.

I'm fairly certain boardwalk has them now
