How long is Monorail from Polynesian to Epcot?

We got on the Resort Monorail at the Polynesian to go to Epcot. It took over 20 minutes just to travel around the lake to the TTC to get on the Epcot Monorail. And then, of course, we had another 12-minute ride on the Epcot Monorail to finally get to the park.

Once the Epcot Monorail leaves the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC), it heads south to Epcot. This ride takes about 12 minutes to get to Epcot. It's easy to walk to the TTC from anywhere in the Polynesian.
