How you get to Magic Kingdom could be changing soon!
Last month, Disney filed permits for construction work on their ferryboat dock at Magic Kingdom. Now, construction may start soon!
The Magic Kingdom ferryboat sails across the Seven Seas Lagoon and connects Magic Kingdom to the Transportation and Ticket Center. Dock construction permits were filed with the South Florida Water Management District in early February and have now been approved.
The construction plans will expand the ferryboat queue at Magic Kingdom. It will create a more formal line in the area that loops you around the dock with a larger capacity than the current line to improve guest flow. They’re also adding a floodplain compensation area south of the Magic Kingdom bus stop to protect the shoreline from erosion and flooding.
Ferryboat construction on the Seven Seas Lagoon is very rare. The most recent construction was in 2021, when Disney added a second-level loading dock at Magic Kingdom and the Transportation and Ticket Center. Before 2021, the most recent addition was adding a second dock at both locations in 2014.
The new ferryboat expansion will make your next Magic Kingdom day so much easier! While Disney hasn’t announced a construction start date, we’re patiently waiting for this expansion. Stay tuned to AllEars for more Magic Kingdom updates!
