I think the hours are the same as the parking structure, but I haven't paid much attention to the time of their last runs of the day, Toy Story is the superior place to park in my opinion. You park closer to the busses. The lines, if any, move much faster. The busses are air conditioned/heated and dry. You are let off closer to the gates. People with large strollers struggle a lot and I haven't ridden with anyone in a wheelchair. Wheelchairs must be secured as on any bus. The busses also "kneel". That is, they lower so it is very easy to get up the short step.
Originally Posted By PetesDraggin I'm not sure what the designated hours are for the Toy Story (or if it even has specific hours), but it seems to be different each day. On our last trip at the end of May, we tried to park in the Toy Story lot around noon on a Thursday and it was closed. The day before it was open and the next day it was open, so not sure why it was still closed. We then went to Mickey & Friends and had to park on the roof, so that lot was almost full. My advice would be to try the Toy Story lot first, and if it's not open, head over to Mickey & Friends.
Originally Posted By 999HAUNTS I also highly recommend you attempt the Toy Story lot before you try the Mickey parking structure, especially if you plan on staying until closing. It is sooooo much easier and so much more organized to get a ride back to your car. There are always ample busses and you don't have to fight for a tram and open those stupid tram doors. Also, the bus drivers for the TS lot are usually pretty friendly. Some even do impressions. Not good ones, but atleast they try LOL

Originally Posted By hvmom Thank you everyone! Before the Cars Land expansion we used to try to park in the Timon lot because it was so much easier than the Mickey structure. Many times, however, we were routed to Mickey because Timon was not yet open. I am just trying to determine if it will be the same situation with Toy Story. I am guessing it depends on predicted attendance for the day.
