Things in Disney World can be very magical, but not everything always goes exactly to plan.
Rides, restaurants, and forms of Disney World transportation can sometimes experience issues that cause them to shut down for a large part of the day or be evacuated. In mid-April the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover was evacuated in Magic Kingdom and today it was evacuated again!
A huge thank you to our reader Rose (@rose_red_disney on Instagram) for alerting us to this and sending us videos of the situation. In one video, Rose explains that they sat on the PeopleMover for about 30 minutes before they were eventually evacuated.
One of our Instagram readers shared videos of getting evacuated off the PeopleMover with us!
