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\u2019re also adding a floodplain compensation area south of the Magic Kingdom bus stop to protect the shoreline from erosion and flooding.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-862414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/MK-Magic-Kingdom-Ferryboat-Dock-Expansion-Construction-Permit-February-2026.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1290\" height=\"939\"  \/>Ferryboat Dock Construction Plan<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-451993\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2022-wdw-atmo-mk-magic-kingdom-ferry-boats.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\"  \/>Ferryboat Dock<\/p>\n<p>The new ferryboat expansion will make your next Magic Kingdom day so much easier!
