Disney Springs Requires Metal Detectors for Resort Bus Arrivals
The measure closes a longstanding security loophole by requiring bag checks in line with Disney’s layered security framework.
Overview
- All guests disembarking Disney Resort buses at Disney Springs must now pass through metal detectors and may have bags searched if an alarm is triggered.
- Before this change, bus arrivals bypassed metal scanners and relied solely on security dogs for screening.
- Disney cited recent isolated fights and minor altercations as prompting the tightened entry procedures.
- Visitors should allow extra time during peak periods since the enhanced screening may add a few minutes to arrivals.
- The update is part of Disney’s layered security model, which combines private teams, detection technology and local law enforcement coordination.
