Thanks for sending ! So these are the hours it's running right?! On the 20th we are at magic kingdom and have lunch at chef mickeys at 1 and then need to get to the poly. It looks like the resort monorail is running ... Am I reading this correctly ?

Just to clarify:
We are staying at Poly.
4/17 we plan on taking monorail around 7:15 to MK. We CAN do that via the resort monorail, correct? I'm assuming it will still stop at MK?
4/18 and 4/20 we plan on going to EPCOT for RD. Even if we walked over to TTC around 7:45 there would NOT be a monorail to EPCOT? So we need to take a bus either from Poly or TTC?
 

@my2disneyboys Yes on Monday the 20th it's running 7am-10:30pm. These are the scheduled time, which are subject to change at any point due to operational need. And chef mickeys is at the Contemporary btw, 5min walk from MK should the rails be temporary down.

On the 17th the resort rail starts up at 7am. And yes, MK is the 2nd stop on the resort line from the Poly.
For the 18th the Epcot line starts at 9am. And on the 20th is starts at 8am. Your best bet is to take the 5mim walk from the poly to the TTC. Other wise you would have to ride the resort rail around 4 stops for the TTC. If the Epcot rail isn't running when you arrive, busses run from the TTC to Epcot (they do not run from the poly).

Do you know what time buses run from TTC to Epcot ? We have an 8AM ADR and Epcot opens at 9 on April 22. Thanks!!!
 
When will this monorail mess be finally done? Will there still be a shortened schedule when we're there in September?

It's hard to say. They aren't using this time to complete any specific project or repair, but rather to do any maintenance or testing that needs to be preformed. On a normal evening when MK closes at 12, rails run until 1am and they don't actually all get back to shop until around 3am. Then they start coming back out the following day around 5am for the 6:30am resort beam opening. By the early shut downs on Sunday and Monday(with delayed openings the following days) it gives them almost a full 8 hour window to work on the system and trains back in shop. Same with the midday shutdowns, that gap in the afternoon is utilized for whatever needs to be done as well. This can include anything from changing tires, swapping out electrical buss bar, patching the beam, or systems testing.
 
So I'm assuming we have a chance of running into these "shutdowns" during our trip in May? We are staying at the Poly and hope to take the monorail to everything but AK, of course, and our early ADR at DHS. We are staying from the 13th-20th (right now lol).

The times for May haven't posted yet, but no you shouldn't have to much of an issue. To get to MK you'd take the resort rail, if it's not running the resort launch boat will be running. To get to Epcot, your best bet is to walk to the TTC and take the Epcot rail, if it's down an Epcot bus will run from the TTC. And from the poly it self is where you'll catch a DHS, AK, or DS bus.

Thank you! I hope not.. not that we ever had an issue getting around where we needed to be. This is our first time staying on the loop, so I'm just happy about that! :)
 
Does anyone have the monorail schedule for April 14th and 15th? Thanks

We are offsite guests. We have 8AM ADR at Magic Kingdom on Tuesday May 3rd. Unless an end date has been posted, it looks like we won't have any monorail option resort or express that morning to arrive to the front gate by 7:45 AM.

If we show up at the TTC are there any confirmed options? Water shuttle or bus options provided that early?

We've stayed offsite, and had a 8:15ADR at MK .. we ended up parking at the TTC (got there around 7:15 to make sure we had time to get to MK), and someone saw us walking around, and called a shuttle over to take us over, since the monorail/ferry wasn't running at that time. I would get there earlier, and look for a CM, and explain to them that you have an ADR and need to get to MK. They should be able to help you with no issues. :)

If nothing appears to be running yet, you can head over to the Bus Info booth. It's at the far right end of TTC; follow signs for buses and taxis. There should be a coordinator in the booth and probably some drivers milling around at that hour, whom you can ask for assistance.

The above posters have given you great information should the rails or ferry not be running when you need them. Here are the rail hours for that day.

Does anyone have any information for May now that it is approaching? I will be staying at the Polynesian 5/14 - 5/21, and actually considered it for the monorail convenience (how ironic).

I know I can sub out the express to TTC and walk to Poly with the resort line.

I foresee the Epcot beam closure being most detrimental since I will be on the Boardwalk Sunday night with an ADR at Beaches and Cream after 10 pm, and Tuesday am since I plan on being at Epcot for rope drop (9am).

Does anyone have information on how late the water taxis will run, specifically between MK and Poly? I know I can bus from Boardwalk to MK, and then water taxi to Poly, but I am unsure if it will be open at 11pm/12am. Or if there are busses running from Epcot to Poly directly since the Epcot beam is closed?

Thank you :)
