What's this I hear about the mononrail?

[DisneyLiz44]

I booked the yacht club because this is our 3rd trip to Disney World with our kids and I figured we would not have to do EVERYTHING and would spend extra money to enjoy the pool at the yacht club. Of course, I just realized that weather might no be "swim weather" during our trip from 2/13 - 2/16.

Anyway, I also booked yacht club because my boys love test track and Rockin' Roller coaster. Both parks are supposedly within walking distance to our hotel or we could use boat. Plus, I figured we could walk to front of Epcot and take a quick, fun monorail ride to MK. (started to loathe the busses on the last trip and would like to avoid them if possible).

So m questions are:
1. How long will we have to wait for a boat to HS and to Epcot from Yacht Club?
2. Best way to MK from Yacht Club?
3. Best way to AK from Yacht Club?

1. They run every 20 minutes. Epcot is an easy walk. DHS is a little longer but is easily walked.

2. Bus

3. Bus is the only choice by Disney transportation

The MK resort and express monorail will be closed from 11:30 to 7:00 on your dates. So you could walk through Epcot in the morning or in the evening.

We've stayed at boardwalk beach/yacht club many times and always take bus to MK. To walk through Epcot for the sole purposes of getting monorail would not serve a purposes of course if you were visiting Epcot and wanted to go to MK from there or MK to Epcot I would use monorail if available.

When we stayed at the beach club we walked through Epcot to get the monorail to mk. We had a stroller and it was a nice to just walk. It probably took longer but was relaxing

Hate to tell you this but I see your trip is in 3 weeks and the monorail will be out of service from Jan 21 - March from the hours of 11:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The Epcot monorail will still be running and the other monorail will be down 11:30-7:00 PM Monday through Friday. It will be working full time on weekends.
