With prices of everything else at the Walt Disney World Resorts, who would have thought that they would have some of the lowest gas prices in the Central Florida area. You would expect to have to drive quite a distance from the theme parks to find a decent price per gallon. But to everyone’s surprise, the three Hess stations located at Walt Disney World are very comparable, if not lower, to area gas stations.
Yesterday’s price at the Hess stations was $1.89 per gallon for the regular gas. The only gas stations in the area that beat that price were those on US-192 (Irlo Bronson Highway) west of the Walt Disney World Resorts. Prices at the many gas stations along that road averaged $1.86 to $1.88 per gallon of regular grade gas. Higher gas prices found yesterday were on SR-535 (Apopka Vineland) near the exit to Downtown Disney at the Shell and 7-Elevan’s with prices at $1.95 per gallon for regular gas. The highest gas price in the area was at the Chevron on SR-535, also by Downtown Disney exit, with prices reaching $2.19 per gallon for regular gas.
The Hess stations can be found at the following locations at Walt Disney World:
- Across the street from Downtown Disney on Buena Vista Drive.
- Across from the entrance to Disney’s Hollywood Studios on the corner of Buena Vista Drive and Epcot Resorts Boulevard.
- As you leave the Ticket and Transportation Center and the Magic Kingdom Resorts area before where Florida Way turns into World Center Drive.
The nation’s lowest gas price is $1.44 per gallon and the highest is $3.10 per gallon, so the prices in Central Florida are not that bad if compared to the highest in the nation.
