Let's talk about how to get to the park!!

We are staying at Poly....... I think I get the plan that you take Monorail to MK or TTC to Epcot....Now talk to me about Poly to AK and what about the boat to MK? Which is faster to MK boat or monorail? Does it take forever to get a boat to MK....long lines etc? Boy, I sure am asking a ton of questions

Poly to AK (also Studios and Downtown) is by bus. The AK bus will also stop at Blizzard Beach. The Downtown bus will stop at Typhoon Lagoon.

The boat to MK is a bit slower most of the time. It's really about the open air, the view, and the fun of it. The lines are usually not long. It may take 10 minutes not counting the wait. You will wait longer for the boat than the monorail under most circumstances.

Is it quicker to take the bus from the TTC to AK or the Studios instead of the bus right at the Poly?

From the Poly...
....To MK - Monorail - fast; Boat - slow.
...To Epcot - walk to TTC, hop on Epcot Monorail - fast; Hop on bus to Epcot - not as fast; Hop on MK resort monorail for loop around Seven Seas Lagoon to TTC, then transfer to Epcot Monorail - slow.
... To DHS - Bus
... To AK - Bus

I'd take the bus right from the Poly, save the walk. The Resort busses and the TTC busses are on the same schedule (every 20 minutes or so).
