Question for WDW Monorail Pilots

[Monorail_Red]

I was just wondering how you like working with the monorails in general. I'm thinking of doing it for the College Program next year (I have passion for Monorails). Any tips/suggestions? From talking to the other CMs, I heard that it can be alot of fun.

I was also wondering how things like parking, lunch breaks, shifts, etc. are coordinated.

Thanks!

The odds of actually getting a monoral pilot role on a CP are slim-to-none. I've done CP Checkins before and I think I've only ever seen 2 people who've gotten it. Transportation is a very small role and there are really more boat pilots than anything.

Truth be told. I've seen more CPs for the Friendship boats, rather than the actual Monorail.

I suggest doing the Friendship (or even trams, I think I've seen a few CPs go in that), and that's a doorway for the Monorail down the road (cheap pun!)

drum-roll please...
