Monorail

[DisneyMagicMom]

What time does the MK express monorail from the TTC start running. We are staying offsite and have an 8:10am character breakfast scheduled at the Crystal Palace (I heard seeing Main Street when it's empty is like nothing else so I had to go for it...plus it will make for some good photos for my 3 boys first time to WDW) for a day that opens at 9am and I hear that the monorail doesn't start running till around 8:15-8:30. If this is the case how are we supposed to make it there in time? I'm just wondering if this info is wrong...if not does the resort monorail stop at the TTC that early...if so...can I take that...and just allow a little more time due to resort stops?

Thanks for any info

I'm not sure how early it starts running, but if you have an ADR for before park hours, there has to be some sort of transportation from the TTC to the MK because the TTC is the MK's parking lot.

Monorail times vary. I have seen the times at 700 am.

Resort Monorail: 7am-2hours after Park closes
Express to Magic Kingdom Park: 8:30am-1hour after Park closes
Epcot: 7:30am-1.5 hours after Magic Kingdom closes

In conclusion, take the Resort Monorail.

I would plan on taking the resort monorail from the TTC. If for some reason you can't board there the Polynesian is about a 5 minute walk from the TTC. You should be able to board there with no problem.

Thanks for the info everyone.

Bear in mind the resorts have parking restrictions for dining. You cannot leave your car there all day for obvious reasons. Many years ago you could park at a resort and pick up the monorail, but so many people were doing it to avoid parking in the main lot that they had to do something. I think, not sure, they allow you 2 or 3 hours if you are dining at one of the resort restaurants. Since you are staying offsite, try and get your dining reservations changed to a little later time. Unfortuneately, early transportation for dining are for Disney resort guests.
