A&E to CRT timing

[amerikiwiroo]

This is our first trip so I'm not sure of the timing between these two.

After a lot of MDE stalking, I've finally found a FP+ for A&E but it's for 1pm -2pm. I also have reservations at CRT at 1:30. Is there any chance of getting through the A+E line and over to CRT in half an hour?! Obviously it's not ideal and I'll continue to stalk FP times, but in a worst case scenario is it even feasible?

Also, the FP is only for 3 members of our group of 6. I know that they won't seat us until the full party is together, but could the other 3 notify the seating CM at CRT that we are coming so that we don't get hit as a no-show (especially since its prepaid!)? TIA

You can use your fastpass 5 minutes early. Do that. And then go directly to CRT. No one can check in until you are all present.

At most its a 5 min walk from A&E meeting area to CRT. You will have plenty of time.

I think you'll be fine but I can vouch for the fact that they won't let partial parties check in. I had an ADR for a solo lunch and went back and forth with the cast member a couple of times at CRT with her insisting my "whole party" had to be with me and me trying to explain I was my "whole party"
