Transportation

[krissyh]

LeCellier reservation at 8:45.
Epcot closes at 9PM.
Transportation back to POFQ?
Is the monorail to the TTC still running? Or would we have to go to Boardwalk area, take bus to DTD and take boat back?
That seems like a lot of work.
I will keep looking for an earlier ressie, but want to be safe.

Someone else can confirm, but I think the buses run for a good hour to two hours after park closing, so I think you will be able to take a bus. Not sure about the monorail with all it's changes recently.

If DHS is open later, you could also walk or boat to DHS and catch a bus from there.

We left Epcot and took a bus to DTD from Beach Club, and then took the boat back to POR. We did spend about an hour shopping at DTD though, which is why we did this. It was on a Friday and found the DTD buses to be pretty frequent at night.

Epcot open until 9, so if the buses only run for one hour, I have a problem.
DHS only open until 7 that night.

Fingers crossed for an earlier ADR. LeCellier is DBF's favorite.

You can always take a taxi. Bumping in hopes someone can confirm for you that the buses run longer or the monorail will still be running then.

they will not leave you in the park. I was there with a group of 14, and we had an 8:55 reservation on a night that Epcot closed at 9. By the time we were done eating, CMs had come in to ask if we were all staying at the same resort and which one - and then they came to escort us to the front gate. We actually got gifts for being the last guests in the park that night. But they told us as long as there are guests in the park, there will be a bus to take them back to their resort.

First of all, you don't want to go to the TTC. You cannot get a bus to another resort there. You would have to continue on to Magic Kingdom to get a bus.

Just take the bus from Epcot back to POFQ. They will get you there.

Hi from Niagara Falls, neighbor.

That's so cool. I'd like to be the last there, and then have my own bus!

I knew that about the TTC, just lazy in my writing, but thanks. That was my issue, didn't want to have to do the double transfer after what I expect to be a really long day. I'll have to remember to put the number for a taxi in my phone! It is the week of Feb. break, so, hopefully, the park will be slow to empty.

There's always taxis hanging around. If you know that's definitely what you want to do, then walk over to Beach Club and grab one. That's the shortest walk, rather than to the front of EPCOT.
