Travelers booked at Disney's Old Key West Resort may want to build some extra flexibility into their Disney Springs plans. According to a recent report, the Sassagoula River Cruise — the scenic boat service that connects the resort to Disney Springs — could face interruptions in the near future.
The Sassagoula River Cruise is a beloved perk for guests at Old Key West and the nearby Port Orleans resorts, offering a relaxing, no-driving alternative to reaching the shopping and dining district. When service runs smoothly, it's one of those quiet advantages that makes a resort stay feel a little more special.
During any periods when boat service is unavailable, guests would need to rely on Disney's bus transportation or another alternative to get to and from Disney Springs. It's worth checking with the resort directly on arrival to get the most current status of the waterway route.
No specific timeline for the interruptions was provided, so guests with upcoming stays at Old Key West are encouraged to stay flexible and ask resort staff for updates upon check-in.
