Epcot monorail hours?

Hopefully Chip 'n' Dale will see this...

When does the Epcot monorail shut down if the park closes at 9 pm and the MK closes at 10?

Epcot Monorail will run until 10:30, or 60 minutes after the MK closes, whichever is later. So, in your case, it would be 11:00.

Thanks, Tyler!

Also, how long do buses go back and forth b/w the TTC and Epcot, AK, and MGM? Do those run till 2 am?

Once the Epcot Monorail shuts down, service is provided by a floater bus. This bus will service Epcot, Studios, and DAK. These buses typically run till 2am.

FW/WL buses run till 2am.

Hi,

I was thinking and thinking about it, but can't get it, so I'd like te put this question in here.

What is the reason that Fort Wilderness and the Wilderness resorts have bus transportation between them and the TTC? What is special about these resorts? Is it because they do not have direct transportation to Epcot and need a bus to go here and then transfer on the monorail? Do those people park their cars at the TTC because of no parking space available at the resorts?
What I'v understand is that these resorts have direct transportation to all parks (MK per boat) and downtown Disney.

Thanks for answering

Gr. Marcel.

It serves a few purposes, none of which are vital at this current time. It used to be that for Epcot and Downtown Disney, guests had to take that bus to the TTC. This is no longer the case, however, the route was kept as an option.

It also comes in handy since the MK boat will shut down 45 mins after the MK closes.

I've wondered that too. Would the popularity of the Hoop De Doo Revue have anything to do with why that TTC/Ft Wilderness bus still runs? The monorail resorts wuld need some way of getting in there.

I've also thought that with the TTC so close to both Wilderness resorts it's not much of a burden providing quick shuttle service.

I remember when the TTC/Ft Wilderness/River Country bus was a "blue flag"!

Yes, the Hoop plays a role as well.

The route is actually internally referred to as the Blue route. (Although once the bus enters FW, it changes to Orange.)
