So Mike....You seem to be pretty knowledgeable about these cruises so I'll ask you....if we are taking the cruise out of Yacht Club, and we are staying at the Polynesian, are you saying that we can ask the pilot to stop someplace else, before we return to YC Marina? If this is true, what would be the best place to stop for the shortest route to the monorail? I'm thinking that if we could get off at the beginning of WS at Int'l Gateway (if possible) this might make a nice walk back thru Epcot. Or would MGM be better? Thanks for any insights.
Yes, you are correct on two counts, you can ask the pilot to stop at any dock, and I am quite knowledgeable about these cruises <G>
To return to the Poly after the cruise. There are a couple of choices, depending on how long you want to be traveling.
1. Drop off at the Epcot dock, walk all the way from UK to the front of the park to catch the monorail. Downside: long walk, will be crowded at monorail station.
2. Drop off at MGM dock, walk around to buses. Downside: how late is MGM open that night? Depending, may be crowded, may be closed already.
3. Take bus from Yacht Club. Downside: long route, most likely will be directed to Downtown Disney first, to catch another bus from there. Long time.
4. Taxi from Yacht Club. Downside: a few $$$.
My first choice would be the taxi if I wanted to get back to my room quickly and without stress. Second choice, MGM if the timing was right.
