Monorail hotel question

[dis2cruise]

Currently staying at OKW. Can we Uber and head to the contemporary hotel to see the fireworks we would like to also head to one of the bars before and order some bar food if possible is this allowed?? If allowed do I show my DVC a card or show our room key?

No. If you don't have a dining reservation there, and you aren't staying at Contemporary or BLT, they'll turn you away. Maybe take a bus to the Magic Kingdom, and from there, it is either a short walk or resort monorail ride to the Contemporary.

I think that an Uber could take you to the TTC, but the resort monorail goes all the way around Poly, GF, MK, and then Contemporary when starting at the TTC.

You can also use a Minnie Van to get there if cost isn’t a concern. Safer too.

You might have to be let off before the security booth and then walk in, but I don’t see it as a problem. (Not sure how it works with Uber at resorts if not staying there.)

There is a fireworks viewing area off the 4th floor concourse. You could get some food and bring it outside. Maybe go early in order to get a seat out there. Going back, order a Minnie Van. We just stayed there a few months ago and DS and his party did this to go back to their resort after watching the fireworks with us. They came right up to the entrance.

Have fun!

Nope. Disney doesn’t allow you to be let out outside the security station and then walk through for safety reasons. If you don’t have an ADR and aren’t a resort guest you aren’t officially allowed in, sometimes a guard will still allow it but other times they won’t and then you’re stuck in a strangers car diverting to TTC and watching your rideshare rating go down the drain. If you take a Minnie Van you can be dropped anywhere including CR without an ADR.

Of note, anyone can be picked up by a rideshare at CR.

It seems to be hit or miss.

OP to be on the safe side, have them drop you off at TTC, take the bus to MK, or just do the MV.

You could always try going through the booth and circle back if they turn the rideshare away.

Do let us know what happens!
