Disney Cast Members giving guests preview of new Minnie Vans. While leaving Epcot today we got a nice surprise from a Disney Cast Member who drives the new Lyft Minnie Vans. She gave us a bunch of information to pass along to our readers. We also learned about the capacity of the new Suburbans they will be driving.
The Minnie Vans will hold a total of 6 passengers. Each Minnie Vans comes with two car seats for children. If the car seats are used, they will be counted towards a total of six passengers. We also received word that Disney Hits XM/Serious Satalite station will be on if you would like to hear your favorite Disney hits while being driven to your destination.
Furthermore, we found out the new Epcot Pick-up and Drop-Off location will be between the bus stops 5 and 6. This is the corner area closest to the curb. No more having to walk across the busy parking lot to catch the Minnie Vans. Also, Lyft Minnie Vans will be out at each park until June 29th when the service returns full time. Cast members will be explaining the process for each park.
