Still Confused about Monorails and Resort Busses...

[clarkfamily]

Are there published hours for the operation of the monorails and resort busses?

We have early morning ADRs (and I know some will suggest a taxi, but we are a large group...), and I need to know when to expect that the monorails and busses will begin to run each morning.

I have read, I think, that the monorails start to run at 8 am. Is this true of the resort monorail loop and the Epcot route from TTC? (We need to get from the Poly to MK for an 8:05 ADR at Crystal Palace, and I'd rather be on the monorail well before 8 am, if that's even possible...)

Also, we'll need to catch the earliest possible bus from the Poly to AK. How will I know when that will be?

Thanks for any help!!!

The resort monorail begins running at about 7:00 a.m., if I recall correctly, so you should have no trouble getting from the Poly to the MK for your breakfast ADR.

Buses to get guests to early ADRs begin running at about 6:30 a.m. Regular, more frequent bus service to the parks begins running approximately one hour before scheduled park opening.

Thanks for this information!

So the plan, really, should just be to head to the bus stop and hope...!

You would have to check in at 7:50am for your breakfast at CP. When you arrive, there is a line for people with early ADR's if the park is not open. You need to give them your reservation number and they will let you in. I would be to the monorail stop no later than 7am to get there in time. They say to allow up to an hour for transportation from your resort to the park/dining reservation.

Hope this helps.
