Woke up to this:

Video: Bus catches fire near new Universal Orlando resort

A nearby viewer captured dramatic footage of the burning bus, sending thick plumes of smoke spiraling into the sky.

Was worried for a minute after they started using the new EV buses lol. Glad it wasn't one of those, I'd love to see those adopted more in the US, especially for dedicated short, slow routes like this.

And they are almost completely silent.

And they are almost completely silent.

and without any of the awful smells or fumes you get the chance to pick up if you hang around in a bus queue long enough.

Good to see there's a difference in the menus between resorts:

Maybe I missed this - but you are able to walk to Epic from Terra Luna as well, right?

There is... but it's very odd. You essentially have to cross at the Universal Blvd entrance and then wrap around the front to reach the other hotel. It's like a U-shape (if you don't jaywalk illegally lol)

Honestly might be faster to grab a bus from one hotel to Epic, and then bus hop to the other hotel lol

(if you don't jaywalk illegally lol)

I stay at Cabana Bay and love the water taxi, so I know all about this

Strange that the walk is so different though, guess i'm staying at Stella Nova LOL

It took me a while to see where it connects but yeah the walkway is an odd shape.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

I'm sure as the south campus develops they'll add paths and bridges over busy roads, but for now I'd avoid it at all, especially in the summer.

The walkway from Stella Nova doesn't exactly look bad, but maybe I don't have the full picture lol

Stella Nova's walkway is a straight shot from the entrance to the crosswalk across the street from Epic's bus loop. On my stay there, I clocked the walk at around 6 minutes at normal pace.

Stella no, but Terra Luna is a very odd walking path.
