10/1/21 (Planning thread for those w/ Magic Kingdom ressies on the BIG 50th)!

[wannabee]

the weather is looking incredible... So excited..

Anybody else at the Poly for 10/1? What time and how are you getting to MK?

We are, monorail or walk

 

[HollyMD]

We are at the Contemporary. With early entry, do you think leaving at 7 to walk over is early enough?

Anyone have any thoughts on what time the 1st buses will leave resorts on 10/1 to go to MK? I'm staying at POP and hope to be on the 1st bus in the morning. I don't want to miss a thing that day!

We are! Switching to beach club that day so assuming that things go smoothly getting baggage transferred planning to head out around 6:30ish and walking. What’s your plan?

I feel like 6 am would be safe to get to the bus stop

We are not sure…being in Moorea it’s easiest to walk to the TTC but does it make more sense to just walk via grand Floridian?

That’s my plan. We are doing club level so grab some bites and walk. They are letting in it looks like 7-7:30;

We want space mtn so I think ok.

I have stayed at Cr a few times Covid. The walk and security is super quick !

10 mins or so depending on your walk speed.

 

[wannabee]

I'm going back and forth on how to get there from Poly. My first thought was to walkout now I'm thinking we will take the monorail- how early should it be running for a 730 open?

 

[DisneyDru]

just scored a 10/1 Crystal Palace lunch for party of 4. If you are still on the hunt for MK dining that day, keep checking!

I would walk if your at the GF, thats what im planning on doing. Even though you are at a monorail resort keep in mind that its the last pickup on the way to the parks. Meaning it will be picking up guest from CR, Poly and the ones that hop on the resort monorail at TTC before it gets to you. Just easier all around to walk. Looking like great weather too for the day

Might want to double-check that they are offering the food on Club Level when I stayed in early Feb it wasn't available. If its not available make sure you bring it up to the front desk (they compensated me very heavily)

hope it's helpful

Thank you! I forgot it started today unofficially. Now I’m curious about timing at Hollywood Studios. I’ll search around!

We are staying at GF and walking over at 6:30am

Do you all expect MK to fill to capacity early? Is anyone nervous about being able to get in or does a reservation 100% guarantee it?

 

[garthbarth1]

We will be there on 10/1! I'm kind of stressed out as I've been so busy that I haven't done much planning! I usually start planning months before. This trip we are staying DVC at the Poly and going on a Club 33 pass so we don't need to plan out rides! However, I am trying to plan the quick service and merchandise situations as well.

A reservation guarantees it!

I'm planning on being at the Caribbean beach bus stop at 5:30 to go to MK. Hopefully I won't be getting to the bus stop too early
