As Walt Disney World continues construction around Magic Kingdom, changes are being made to the bus loop loading zones. Beginning January 13, a few of the bus loading zones closest to Magic Kingdom theme park will be closed indefinitely.
While changes to the Magic Kingdom bus drop-off and pick-up zones might not feel like they affect your vacation if you don’t frequently visit Walt Disney World, they are good to keep in mind. Plus, those who often visit the parks and take the buses to and from their Disney Resort hotel should be aware of the fact that their resort bus may no longer be located at the same loading zone that you’re used to using. This is especially good to be aware of if you are currently on vacation at Walt Disney World, since the changes go into effect on Monday.
