But did you consider how you configured your wallet in 1981?

Bad excuse for sure.

Been there ever since the collision of the gondolas happened..
The beginning of the end of regular Pop bus service to DHS and EPCOT. I'm sure AoA would have the same. Wonder if it's also at CBR.

Well, I guess if it stops on the way from Pop to Hollywood studios there will be less people in the park fighting for boarding passes.

So, how does this work from leaving the park? Is it still every 20 the other way around? And how does this affect when the park closes for the night and your still in FW having to high tail it over to International Gateway and the CM's barricade you going back that direction when it closes for the night...I'm a late night person so I'd like to make sure I can still get over to the Skyliner after the park closes...

If you’re in FW and heading for the IG, just tell them that’s where you’re going. Shouldn’t be a problem.
I expect they will still encourage you to use the Skyliner when leaving DHS to get back to POp, AoA and CBR.

Rather bold given the continued reports of issues with the Epcot line.
Maybe this means they feel those issues have been resolved?
I still doubt bus service will end completely.

Typical Disney. Discontinue a tried and true bus service for a may breakdown at anytime gandola. And this is why I always drive to the parks even when park hopping.

If the bus service is so tried and true, why do you drive?

It may be wishful thinking but maybe the issues have been identified and resolved or at least a plan to resolve very soon.
I'm sure if one or more lines go down, they add more busses to go back to every 20 minutes for the duration.

Cast members will not stop you from going to international gateway at any point

This was actually a concern of mine last year. I hovered around Epcot for a while well past close (with many other guests taking their time leaving) and had no issue with exiting through the IG.

By past experience, when the monorail or boats go down, it takes up to half an hour to get replacement buses running, and of course there are no extra bus drivers sitting around, so overall service levels are affected. And replacement service generally comes nowhere near the capacity of the service being replaced, so lines tend to develop.
I'm not anti-Skyliner, nor am I against reducing redundant bus service, but Disney needs to come up with a way to have that reserve capacity readily available. If they continue to shut down for lightning, it certainly will be needed come summer.
I wonder whether they will be shared buses between Pop & AoA.

Reading the tweets from our favorite site...ya people aren't happy. If they can work out whatever kinks they're having with the Epcot line, I'm sure most would be fine with it. I'd still rather take this over the bus since it *should* be more consistent then buses.
Glad to see @Lift Blog is still out here though!
