How about being realistic?
This wins the Internet today.
You’re being ridiculous and ‘solving’ the problem with nonsensical solutions.OK, well there's your problem. With each cabin divided into 4 sections, they should be getting way more than that on each train. How about 3+ people per section minimum. If you are a smaller party, take the walking path or ferry or make a new friend (preferably a vaccinated one). There, I solved the problem again
I was being a bit sarcastic. But the monorails should not be running at and do not need to be running at 20% capacity. At worst it should be 50%.
Once you eliminate standing room in the cabins you’ve already limited yourself to less than 50%
Disney and logistics disagree
Incorrect. They quite frequently run four trains per line. Sometimes 5 on the resort line
Regarding the pathway to Magic Kingdom, that project was approved and heavily under construction long before the quarantine shutdown occurred.
Exactly. Same as the parking lot trams and the WDW Railroad. There are ways to operate them. Disney has chosen not to.
It was approved and begun before Covid. But it was one of the first projects resumed. There’s a reason why it wasn’t allowed to sit longer like so many other projects.
Per car it's roughly 20 seats and 30 to 40 standing positions depending on strollers and wheelchairs. When you remove The Standing Room you clearly are going to be way below the 50% capacity. That leaves only the 20 seats of which the partitions themselves take four of those seats away. So now you're down to 16 seats.
Honestly it resumed because it was so far along and yet despite that its was delayed so many times.... Too many times. I had a personal stake in the project... I wish they had rushed it. Heck, if it had been on time in the first place it would have been opened prior to the shut down.
#floridaweather Eitherway It opened way too late in the post reopening to be an effective in assisting the resort monorail.
Love the example. Ita amusing because its true.
As it has been described to me, that Grand Floridian pathway was approved before COVID because it was part of a project to improve evacuation of Magic Kingdom in the event of an emergency. Magic Kingdom is the only park that had no pedestrian access option back to the parking area in the event of some event (no matter the cause) that rendered normal transportation options unavailable, or if a full evacuation was needed urgently.
They can’t run the WDW Railroad even if they wanted to. There are still sections of track missing right now, so........
Well that’s just silly, obviously they can’t operate on Monday’s because the earth gravitational pull is a little higher in the direction of Universal. You don’t really want the trains to fall of the track AND point towards Universal do you?
They are probably working on a way to charge extra for monorail rides
