The sharing was a non issue for us except for one time in February of 2016. For the most part the only time we shared was going from a park back to the resort in the afternoon and there were only a handful of other people waiting. Maybe once or twice going to the parks too but not crowded.
Going to/from DS was horrible though. The bus that took us stopped at the others after coming from a park (I’d assume) and it was packed the whole time. But we did get on and it didn’t add more than maybe 5 or so minutes.
The ride back was horrible. We waited a good 35-40 minutes (id have to recheck my notes but may have even been longer) for a bus. Literally not one bus for the all stars came. Multiple other buses came and left empty to other resorts. The line for the bus was ridiculous. It stretched the whole way back the walkway heading back towards DS. This is with all the zig zags (can’t think of a better term) too. Finally three buses came at the same time. We just got on the second. I would say they needed 2 more buses to get everyone out (so 5 total). It was really unacceptable.
I don’t tell you that so you worry, just saying the bad stories do happen. But that was the only problem we had with sharing the week we were there.
I also was hoping for POP, but with the FD deal switched to Sports.
In regards to busing, I had a "horror story" like the one above with POP. We left MK after our Crystal Palace dinner and it was pouring rain. Everyone was heading out. The line was completely filled for POP and the line stretched way down past two more bus stops. A fight broke out, security was all over the place. We were in that line well over an hour, probably closer to 90 minutes.
