Transport
We are staying at travelodge wyndham lake buena vista, it says they offer a free shuttle service to the parks, does anyone know how often the shuttles run?
Good question. I couldn’t find any official, up-to-date shuttle schedule published by Travelodge / Wyndham for the Lake Buena Vista (Disney Springs) location that clearly states how often their free shuttle runs. Here’s what the information suggests, along with some caveats and tips:
What the sources say:
- The Wyndham Lake Buena Vista (formerly Travelodge by Wyndham Lake Buena Vista) FAQ states: *“shuttles are scheduled hourly starting one hour before each park opens up until one hour after park closing.”*
- Several guests on TripAdvisor / planDisney forums mention that shuttle runs are limited: one commenter estimated “1-2 morning runs and 1-2 evening ones.”
- According to MickeyVisit, non-Disney hotels in that area tend to run shuttle service about every hour, or every 30 minutes during busy times.
Important caveats / things to watch out for:
- Reservations may be required: According to the Wyndham FAQ, you need to make a shuttle reservation.
- The shuttle does not cover water parks or special event transportation, per the hotel’s FAQ.
- Because the schedule is not very detailed publicly (no full timetable), there’s some risk: if you’re relying on the shuttle to get to the parks early (or leave late), make sure to double check when you check in.
My advice for your stay:
- When you check in, ask the front desk for the *exact shuttle schedule* (they should have the current times).
- Make your shuttle reservations as early as possible (if the system allows) — this will help ensure you catch a bus when you need it.
- Have a backup plan: Given the limited frequency, consider using a rideshare (Uber/Lyft) for times when the shuttle might not run when you want it (early morning or after park close).
Bottom line: The Travelodge / Wyndham Lake Buena Vista shuttle is hourly according to their own FAQ, but guest reports suggest it's not super frequent. For reliability, check the schedule at check-in and reserve your rides where possible.
