These times are all at night, just FYI for everyone.
We really want to eat after we get there, which is obviously going to be late as yes, our plane is scheduled to land at 8:25 pm, B&C reservation is 10:20 pm. Should we just plan to eat there at the resort or do we have a hope of making it somewhere else before all the restaurants close? We get there the night of DH's birthday and this trip is a surprise for him so that's why we wanted to eat somewhere cool when we got there.

Even with taking a cab from your resort, I wouldn't plan on being anywhere before 10:30, and even that would require both luck and some serious hustle.
You can keep the ADR if you want, but know that you'll have to pay the $10 per person fee if you don't make it.

I went ahead and cancelled the ADR. I believe all of you when you say we aren't going to make it. 
One more question on transportation - is 9:20 late enough to get to B&C after IllumiNations or should I try to go later? We are scheduled for the IllumiNations Dessert Party the same night and figured we'd pop over there to eat before heading to MK for EMH that night.

Illuminations won't be over until 9:15. It will take you 10 to 15 minutes to get out of the park, 10 minutes to walk to Beaches and Cream, and Disney asks that you check in 15 minutes before your ADR.I went ahead and cancelled the ADR. I believe all of you when you say we aren't going to make it.

Haha whoops! I thought IlllumiNations was at 8:00, not 9:00. Thanks for that. I changed it to 10:30.
help need info on transportation to Disney springs! we are NOT staying at a Disney resort. our hotel does have a shuttle to the Disney parks. can we use the parks transportation system to take us to Disney springs if we are at the park. We are using a 5 day DW pass, not a hopper. Do they charge for this transportation? I have read if you have a hopper pass you can use all of the Disney transportation services for free. since I don't have the hopper is there a way to get to Disney springs.? we would prefer not to have to rent a car.

You don't need a hopper to use Disney transportation (I'm curious where you read that), but there aren't any buses that go directly from the parks to DS. You would have to take a bus to a resort and transfer to another bus for DS (or you could walk to CR from MK or to BC from Epcot or DHS.)

This is my second trip to Disney... but my first trip was with a group for cheerleading (and was about 12 years ago) and I do no planning whatsoever. I was wondering if I have a ressie at 835am, what time my boyfriend and I should be at the bus stop to get to MK. And this may seem silly, but what time do the busses really run. We are wondering if we should schedule an uber to take us from Pop Century to MK. Let me know! Thank you so much for your help!

Buses start at 6:30 every day. I would be at the bus stop by 7:30.

Well, it all depends on whether or not you are of the 'time is money' mentality! You could take a bus to MK, then take the bus to Saratoga Springs from there and walk over to DS. Or, as already noted, bus to MK, then walk to the CR and take their bus to DS. I would leave at least an hour to do this...and it will probably take a bit longer.
If you don't want to spend a boat load of time on buses, then just take a cab from wherever you're staying.

What time do you need to be at CBR?Best way to get to BC from CBR using Disney transportation... we will have 2 young girls that need carseats in a car and we will not have a car or carseats with us. Also, an estimate on how long it would take us would be appreciated!

We will be leaving from CBR to go to BC for an ADR at Beaches and Cream.... I haven't made any ADRs yet, so we don't have a set time. I just need to know about how long it will take so I can figure out what time would be best for the ADR.

Take the bus to DHS and then walk or take the boat to BC. Allow 75 to 90 minutes.

What's the quickest route from WL to Poly? Take the boat to CR then monorail or boat back to MK?

Park-to-park buses start running approximately 1 hour before park opening time.
During some races, bus service to Epcot may be suspended at times to avoid interference with the race course. At such times, Guests traveling to Epcot are redirected to the TTC for transfer to the monorail.
