Depends on whether you come in at T1 or T2. T1, you need the bus. T2, if you don't have a lot of bags or a condition that makes walking a problem, you can walk to it. Not only do you avoid the lines, it can save time compared to waiting for the next bus even if there's no line. In late April a walk outside will probably be very pleasant.
