If I buy wine at the Poly and want to take it to the Contemporary on the monorail, will they let me? Worried about bag check at the Poly monorail station; I won't be going into the park.
While I have never done it with an unopened adult beverage, I can assure you I have boarded the monorail with open cocktails/beverages in hand and it has never been an issue. This was fairly recently and certainly after bag check began. Prior to that it was never a problem, but I thought when the security went into place at the resorts, the beverages on the monorail would also be an issue. Sure wasn't the last time we were there. Of course, if you were going into a park, then it would be dumped or consumed at security.
But the bag check at the resort IS security for the park. You don't go through again when you get there.
We almost ran into this sort of situation when my dad was buying a bottle of wine at Epcot and we had planned to hop to MK. He wound up going back to the resort instead, so I'm not sure if anything would have happened. He did take it by Disney bus, no issues. It was an unopened bottle of wine.
Hmmm. . .that is true--we weren't going to a park and I guess I kind of forgot about that one. Not sure who is responsible for the adult beverages then. I actually dropped my drink in a garbage can and the CM said that I didn't need to do that--I was able to bring it on board. The rest of the group with me took their beverages without an issue.

People buy bottles of wine from the countries in Epcot all the time and I’d think some of them are staying at a monorail resort so there must be a way to take them back to the resort.

We have done this many times. Wine from Epcot to our resort. In monorail or Disney transport. Never been an issue. EverJust FYI, you don't go through security at any point when you return to a monorail resort from leaving Epcot. That trip is all "within the security bubble" and a security check is not needed.

Aren't you required to pick up wine purchases at the front of the park when exiting the park? I always thought wine bottle purchases had to be sent for pickup?
Considering there's no bag check to board a bus what stops someone from bringing alcohol in their bag? Who would know if someone had a bottle of wine purchased at the resort in their bag?Tricky one. You cannot bring it on a Disney bus but nothing about monorail that I could find.
"No luggage or alcohol of any type is permitted on Walt Disney World Resort buses."
Even if you did, you'd still carry it out of the park.Aren't you required to pick up wine purchases at the front of the park when exiting the park? I always thought wine bottle purchases had to be sent for pickup?
