Quick and easy park transportation is a top attraction for All-Star Movies Resort

For guest making a booking at Disney World's All-Star Movies Resort, opting for a value resort rather than a hotel 'offsite', probably the top perk.

Arguably, the easy and complimentary transport to and from the parks is one of the main attractions for guests heading to the All-Star resort.

The value of being dropped-off right at the park entrance, skipping entirely the Transportation and Ticket Center and the ferryboat shouldn't be underestimated.

Over the course of a week stay at Disney World it shaves a lot of time off your theme park 'commute'.

Whether heading to Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios or Animal Kingdom, the resort provides regular free transport that makes guests' Disney World trip as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Minnie Van

As many guests staying at All-Star resorts know, the one main complaint you're likely to see about the value resorts is these buses are in high-demand.

Before the 'rope drop' park openings in the morning, and after the fireworks at night, especially, the lines for buses can be long (sometimes very long). All-Stars are high capacity resorts, so peak times can be lively.

Whether you're running late or just don't fancy the wait, guests can opt to pay for a private ride in a Minnie Van - the Lyft/Uber style on-demand, point-to-point rideshare operated by Disney Cast Members in red-and-white polka–dot Chevrolet Traverse SUVs.

Minnie Vans operate daily from 6:30 am to 12:30 am, and are bookable via the Lyft app.

Like regular ride-hailing service, such as Uber and Lyft, the Minnia Van service is priced depending upon the distance of your trip, plus the time of day (it uses dynamic pricing).

It adds a cost to your day, but a Minnie Van trip can be a popular choice (especially at peak times when you'd rather not wait for the bus).
