Help us get to Ohana...and back!

[MastaMind]

We decided (OK, I decided) to cancel our Artist Point reservation @ 6:00 pm on 10/20 in order to get an ADR at Ohana. Our new reservation is at 8:25 pm, which is a bit later than our normal ADRs.

Since we're staying at the BWI, I'm not quite sure what the best transportation method and route would be to and from the Poly. Getting there shouldn't be a big deal, as we could always go hang out in MK for a few. The potential issue I foresee is getting back! Any recommendations from the pros out there? Thanks in advance!

And for the record, we really enjoyed AP. It's just that we had to cancel Ohana on our last trip, and I'd really like to try it, if only for the bread pudding.

I'd take the monorail to MK and then the bus to BWI.

I was worried that MK closed too early and the bus service from MK to BWI would no longer be operational. I just checked the park hours for 10/20, and it looks like MK is open until 9:00, instead of 7:00. So, it appears that your suggestion would work. The only caveat with that plan is we would have to endure the MK closing crowd rush!

Maybe we could take the monorail to the TTC, take the monorail to Epcot and then walk back to the boardwalk.

ADR is at 8:25 have a leisurely meal. If MK closes at 9:00 the crowds should start subsiding at 9:30-9:45 unless Wishes is at 9:00. In the summer we usually shop awhile after park closing. The shops stay open an hour later and the buses usually run two hours after park closing.

This would also work. Just know that you can't take a bus from the TTC.

Definitely stretch your meal out as long as possible. If MK closes at 9, busese will run until 11 or so. And thebuses should not be crowded at that point.

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I guess I'll see how the meal goes. If we're able to stretch it out (which, judging by a few posts on Ohana, could prove difficult), then we'll probably take the bus back from MK. If we finish around the time that MK closes, then we'll probably take the monorail back to Epcot.

Either way, I can't wait to try Ohana!

Just an FYI if you end up wanting to go this route. You can skip the resort monorail and walk straight to the Epcot monorail at the TTC in 5-10 min from 'Ohana. It's a beautiful walk through the Poly at night with the torches lit
