“There is no separate line for the front cabin of the Monorail,” according to WDW News Today. “If you’d like to ride in the section and it fills up, you can simply ask the cast members if you can hang back and wait for the next ride.”
The Monorail’s back cabin, which also closed to passengers following the pandemic, remains inaccessible to riders.
