Ohana ADR at 8 p.m., how to get back to CSR

[mom2munchkin]

We have an 8 p.m. ADR at Ohana on a MNSSHP night. I had assumed we would take the monorail afterwards back to MK and then bus it back to CSR. But after learning that the monorail is only open 1 hr after the parks close (8 p.m.) how is the best way to get back to our resort?

If (IF) the Resort Monorail is not running after your meal ( it very well may still be running, but if not)
you could-

A- Take a cab.

B- Walk to TTC from the Poly, take the Epcot Monorail to Epcot and board the CSR bus from there.
(Epcot Monorail will be running until at least 10PM or later.)

Walking to TTC then taking the ferry to MK would also work (if it's running, which it stops in bad weather). Also, if the boat from Poly to MK is running (I'm sure you could ask at the front desk, to save some walking time), that would be another option.

Personally, I'd spent the $12 or so to take a Taxi back. It's much easier and quicker.

Great. Sounds like we have options

The resort monorail line will remain open until 1 hr after MNSSHP. So you can bet on taking that back to the MK. If something happens that shuts the monorail down, you can use the alternates already listed.

This is no longer correct. The monorail now shuts down 1 hour after the regular closing time (ie not hard ticket party closing time).

I'm going to move this to our transportation board in case the folks over there have other suggestions.

You're both wrong. The resort monorail now runs until 30 minutes after the party ends. tswfl08 is right that the OP won't have a problem taking it after dinner since it will be running until 12:30.

Sorry, I'm so used to saying express closes 1 hr after regular park close >.< That was unintentional on my behalf.
