Yes, I would say thats a win. I don't see that happening. I see it opening at one hour before and one hour after posted park hours.OK, I can see the Skyliner starting a bit later since it's faster and can move more guests, so for the purposes of the Mickey Bar, can we agree if the Skyliner starts by 6:45am and stays open until the parks are clear I win?
I see it like monorails and boats. I see it starting later and closing earlier. It doesn't have the flexibility of buses. From either Studios or EPCOT, it serves a limited number of resorts. A bus can serve any resort and at closing, you are liable to have stragglers going to many resorts not served by the Skyliner. It's not cost effective to keep it running until 11pm or so on a 9pm closing.
You being on a bus 1.5 hours prior to park opening fully supports my earlier statement. The official line is transportation starts 45 minutes prior to park opening. I said they start earlier than that.
I drove both the early routes and late routes for many years. Being in at 0530 to start driving by 0630, working MK until 0330 for a 11pm closing. Buses being the only thing running at those times. Why would we start that early, you ask? Breakfast runs. Why late? buses can serve everywhere, boats, monorails or now, the Skyliner don't.
