Magic Kingdom Guest Drop Off Guide: Know Before You Go

Unlike other theme parks, Magic Kingdom has a unique spot where guests can be dropped off.

On this page we will cover where that is, and everything else that you need to know.

    Where is the Guest Drop-Off Location at Magic Kingdom?

    Guests will need to be dropped off at Disney's Transportation and Ticket Center, as Magic Kingdom doesn't offer a parking lot at the entrance of their park for direct access as the other parks do.

    The 'TTC' is a location where guests can park their vehicle, and later use complimentary Disney transportation (like the monorail and ferry) to be transported to the actual Magic Kingdom park.

    Once you arrive at the TTC, you will simply need to inform a cast member you are dropping guests off, and they will direct you to the correct area.

    There are also marked signs that will point towards 'Guest Drop off'.

    Getting to Magic Kingdom After Drop-Off

    After being dropped off, you'll need to use a Disney complimentary transportation system to get to Magic Kingdom.

    You can choose the Monorail option (fastest) or the Ferry option (more scenic) by following the signs around the TTC.

    Choosing From the Monorail vs Ferry Boat

    If you're in a hurry, choose the Monorail option.

    A monorail is the closest transportation to the parking lot, is the faster way to get to the park, and comes in faster intervals.

    The two-level Ferry is a bit slower, but holds a much larger capacity of guests and sails through the wide-open lagoon for a nice breeze and calm ride.

    Getting Picked Up at the TTC

    Many guests forget where they were dropped off after a long fun day of theme park-ing, don't make that mistake!

    Make sure to remember the name of that area (Transportation and Ticket Center), and that you'll need to ride a ferry or the monorail back to the TTC to get picked up in the same area that you were dropped off.

    Yes, the ride-sharing driver will need to drop you off at the Transportation and Ticket Center by following the signs labeled 'Ride Share Guest Pick Up and Drop-Off' to find the appropriate location.
