Epcot Monorail?

[DVCsloth]

Any guesses when Disney plans to re-open the monorail to Epcot?

I’d sure like to know, too. Arriving at the end of the week, staying at the VGF and don’t look forward to having to take a bus to Epcot & HS, especially with a scooter.

There have been sightings of cms roaming around the stations, which might be a good sign.

I hope that's a good guess. If it isn't, can I sue? I'd really love for it to start in the next couple weeks, so I can get from VGF to Epcot on my scooter. Taking a bus doesn't't thrill me.

Starting to think that they won't open it until most of Epcot construction is finished.

I’m right there with you. Taking a bus to three out of the four parks is not in any way satisfactory especially with a scooter. I’m wondering if they have added more bus service because of this or is waiting for the bus going to eat up more vacation time.

Looks like maybe this weekend. They had cast members and maintenance crew out at Magic Kingdom Transportation and Ticket Center today.

Something more than just the normal number of CM's needed to operate? What were the extra CM's doing?

Looks like it will start operating on July 18.

I'm very happy. We have a split stay between BLT and BWV starting on 7/20.

This is awesome news! We arrive on 7/25 and we're staying at BLT. So happy to hear that the monorail can take us to EP by then!

Oh, boy-now I have a decision to make. I'll be at VGF on Tuesday. Should I keep my plans for a second MK day (I already have Monday, the 19th). Or should I cancel my Jungle Skipper Canteen lunch, and head to Epcot for a second day of F&W. Solo trip.
