Guests who will be at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel over the next few days before the hotels are closed on March 20, 2020 at 5:00 PM due to concerns over the Coronavirus will want to be advised of some additional changes which will also take place this week.
Walt Disney World Bus Transportation
According to the Walt Disney World website, “All Disney transportation will be suspended beginning the morning of Wednesday, March 18, 2020 through the end of the month.” (Please note that Disney’s Magical Express will continue to transport guests to and from the airport through March 20.)
For those unaware, last night it was announced that all Disney owned and operated locations in Disney Springs will begin their temporary closure on Tuesday, March 17th. (Prior to last night, Disney Springs and transportation to and from the shopping and dining district were slated to remain open while the four Walt Disney World theme parks will be closed through the end of the month.)

Again, please be advised that Disney’s Magical Express will continue transfers to and from Orlando International Airport through Friday, March 20th — the closure date for the Disney World Resort hotels.
