The Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC) is an intermodal transportation hub served by monorails, ferries, and buses at the Walt Disney World Resort. The station serves all three lines of the Walt Disney World Monorail System, as well as conventional bus and taxis in the Greater Orlando Region.

Services

Transport between the TTC and Theme Parks

The Magic Kingdom lies more than a mile away from its parking lot, on the opposite side of the man-made Seven Seas Lagoon. Upon arrival, guests are taken by parking lot trams to the TTC, which sells tickets to the parks and provides transportation connections to the Magic Kingdom. To reach the park, guests can use either the Walt Disney World Monorail System or a ferryboat. [2] [3] [4]

The main monorail loop has two lines. The outer loop is a direct nonstop loop between the TTC and Magic Kingdom (called the Express Line), while the inner loop makes additional stops at the Contemporary, Polynesian, and Grand Floridian resorts (called the Resort Line).

Epcot is accessible by a spur monorail line that was added upon that park's opening in 1982.

Transport between the TTC and other locations

Orlando's Lynx public transportation service serves the TTC. From the TTC, most routes head north towards the Magic Kingdom Cast Bus Station, intended for employees only. To the south, route 56 offers frequent service to Kissimmee station via Celebration, route 300 offers frequent express service to Lynx Central Station in Downtown Orlando via the Lynx Disney Springs Transfer Center, and route 303 offers peak-only service to the Lynx Washington Shores SuperStop. [1]

Shades of Green, a hotel operated by the Armed Forces Recreation Centers on the Walt Disney World Resort property, offers a shuttle between the hotel and the TTC. [5]

Parking lot

The TTC has a parking lot with 12,156 spaces. [6] Due to its size, Disney Transport operates two parking lot tram routes named Heroes and Villians, and the various sections of the lots have matching theming. The parking lot at the TTC is organized as follows:

Row No. Name

410–426 Scar Grumpy  Villains 
427–436 Cruella Bashful  Villains 

Other services

In addition to transportation and ticketing, there are a few other services at the TTC. In the main TTC plaza there is a Joffrey's Coffee kiosk. Across the parking lot is the Car Care Center which includes a Speedway gas station, an auto repair shop and a Alamo Rent a Car location. [7] Additionally the Car Care Center houses one of Disney Transport's bus depots.

Former bus service

There are nearly 40 bus stands located south of the monorail station. In the late 1980s/early 1990s this bus station was used for buses to and from hotels in other Walt Disney World Resort areas and two and from Disney's Animal Kingdom and Disney's Hollywood Studios theme parks. To reduce the traffic passing through the TTC, a bus station was built closer to the Magic Kingdom. However, the station was quickly filled up and the Disney's Animal Kingdom and Disney's Hollywood Studios operated out of the TTC instead of the Magic Kingdom bus stop. In December 2013 a third bus loop opened at the Magic Kingdom station, leaving the TTC without any regular Disney Transport bus routes. [8] [9]
