Sadly no. The resort you're staying in is great and Disney is awesome, but they really do know how to make it the most expensive trip you'll ever take.
Yes they do... usually run every 15 - 20 minutes
If you have a ticket yes you have access to the parks. If not then no.
There is free transportation by way of a bus that comes to the lodge every 15 minutes and you can ride the bus to any of the parks for free, there is a bus for each park, then if you want to park hop from one park to another you can either take a bus from park to park or the ferry over to Magic Kingdom, or the train, all free. If you want to drive your car to the parks there is a parking charge at each park.
No.
Yes I did
I can recommend a travel agent that specializes in Disney vacations and they incorporated not only our resort stay but also all 5 of our park days included along side arrangements for transportation to and from the airport. She even hooked us up with local companies that delivered groceries to our room for the week and stroller rentals for the week and booked all of our restaurant reservations and gave it all to us at a HUGE discount... only thing we had to arrange ourselves was the flights
As others stated...the park tickets are not included in your resort reservation...unless you book an entire package through Walt Disney World themselves.
1) To visit the parks you need a ticket and reservation for the park you plan on visiting that day. Days sell out. 2) Parking is not included at resorts. 3) There is Disney provided transportation from the hotel to parks. if you made a reservation through Disney, which I believe is the only way you can, they are very helpful and can answer all of your questions. I would absolutely call and talk to Disney directly
To enter the parks, you’ll need to either purchase a ticket or get the pixie dust annual pass if you’re a Florida resident. Disney resorts offer bus transportation to the parks. Certain resorts offer monorail, Skyliner, or ferry boat as well.
Park tickets and reservations are completely separate from hotel reservations. They are not included in your resort stay.
