When will the resort/MK monorail stop running in September/October 2020?

[Disneyfriend]

I've looked but can't seem to find this information anywhere.

We are staying at BLT but wanted to have dinner at Kona Cafe at 8 pm on our arrival night. Will we be able to get back to BLT around 9:30 or so?

Thanks very much!

Probably not by monorail...it's been stopping an hr after MK close, which will be 7pm when you go. I believe I saw something where they are busing between the resorts...no idea why they'd rather make ppl bus then monorail, but that Disney.

Because it takes 1 cm to drive a bus; it takes many more to keep the entire Resort Monorail line running. 2 buses can maintain a 20-minute headway serving all monorail resorts. If all the Guests traveling between resorts can fit on those buses, why would Disney keep the monorail running?

For the benefit of their resort guests who are paying a premium to be on the monorail line (especially considering they're already taking away the convenience of those same guests and saving money by not opening the epcot line)...but yes I get what you're saying...it's another way to save money for them.

Thanks, everybody.

Bummer that the resort monorail is closing so early, and that the Epcot monorail isn't even running.
