I ask because Teal broke down and they're towing it off. We have been on the beam between GF and MK for 30+minutes and no updates.
In the future you can take the boat from the GF to the Magic Kingdom.
And this happens regularly?
I sure wouldn't want to pay extra to stay at a monorail resort. I keep hearing stories (even from friends who just came back) about missing ADR's due to monorail breakdowns.
Actually no, it doesn't happen regularly. How many stories do you hear about how nice and convenient the monorail was?
Sad to say it does happen on a regular basis.

I wouldn't say they miss their ADR's they are late for them and are worked in, still unacceptable either way you look at it.
Maybe it's just me but I noticed more problems with the Monorail's since the accident in July 2009. In December of that year we had two issues with Monorail's breaking down and before then we never had issues them when staying at the Contemporary.
The 1st time we were on a Resort Monorail that was at the TTC and we were told to get off because there was a problem with it. Then it took them at least 20 - 30 minutes to decide if they should take tow it to the maintenance area. I was thinking if we were told to get off then shouldn't it be towed right away? In fact when we got on at the Contemporary I told my family something smells like it's burning, which had to be the problem it had.
The 2nd time was a few days later when we had just finished eating at the Kona Island Sushi Bar at the Polynesian and was walking back to the Monorail station when we were told the Resort Monorail was down. We then asked how can we get back to the Contemporary? We were told walk to the TTC, take the Express Monorail to the Magic Kingdom and use the walkway back to the Contemporary. Instead we told them what happened at the Polynesian front desk, who then gave us a taxi voucher so we wouldn't need to pay for one and that was a lot faster then the advice the Monorail Cast Member gave us.
What is a single priority access?
