Overview
- Walt Disney World notified guests that Walt Disney World Bus Service will begin using a new bus load zone on July 13, 2026.
- The new pickup sits between the Rarotonga longhouse and the resort guest parking lot, a short walk from the main lobby.
- The intersection of Seven Seas Drive and Floridian Way will close permanently on July 13, 2026, and Disney has provided revised driving directions to guests.
- Resort notices say Front Desk Cast Members will help visitors find the new stop while some outlets report that Island Tower guests will follow new parking and check‑in routing tied to the traffic change.
- The move is part of a multi‑year entrance and roadway modernization that began with planning in 2023 and has included construction of the new bus loop seen largely finished by April 2026, so guests should expect signage, staff direction, and possible travel delays during the transition.
