In what order do the buses pick up/drop off in the loop around POR? Trying to figure out which building to request.
In-(FQ)-W-N-E-S-out
They’ll only add in FQ when the buses aren’t near capacity. If the bus stops are getting busy, FQ will get their own buses.
But DS buses almost always gets a combined FQ/Riverside bus, pulling double duty as an internal bus.
DS-FQ-S-W-N-E-FQ-DS
For all info on Port Orleans (both areas) go look at https://www.portorleans.org/ André Willey does an awesome job of keeping that site updated.
Thank you!!!
Here’s a bit more info for you
And a map which is NOT to scale, btw
Recently we stayed in Bldg 15 (blue) which has a walking path to the South bus stop. This path is paved and much shorter than it looks. Bldg 15 is preferred, tho. To get to the food court one goes east along the parking to a short path to the door to the food court.
We also stayed in one of the Mansions, in one of the red bldgs. In the morning we’d go to the east stop. Upon returning we’d get off at the south stop and walk across the bridge.
Tho it seems that the food court isn’t far, it felt much further walking down to the bridge, across and then back up to the food court.
It is one of my favorite food courts. French Quarter food court almost seems closer but it has less variety.
While at bldg 15 we did our laundry. The paths in Alligator Bayou are scenic but they can be annoying with their winding. The straight lines at the Mansions appealed to me more.
I totally agree!! We only stayed there once, many years ago when it was still Dixie Landings, in the Magnolia Bend section. Just a few years ago we were visiting a lot of resorts on a non-park day, and did way too much walking around POR trying to get from a certain bus stop to the boat.
This same problem of winding paths among too much overgrown greenery blocking distance views is the main thing I dislike about AK.
