Park hopping returns to Disney World this week and that’s a pretty big step back towards normal.
Monorail
With guests being able to go between parks again starting January 1st, Disney also announced that park-to-park transportation will return as well. BUT, one very big staple of park transportation is not set to return at the start of 2021.
We reached out to a Disney World Cast Member today who noted that the EPCOT monorail loop will continue to be unavailable until further notice.

We weren’t sure whether the EPCOT routes would return with park-to-park transportation, but according to the Cast Member, we will not be taking the highway in the sky to EPCOT on January 1st. At this time, there is no set date for the return.
