What time do buses start running to AK on an EMH morning? I want to make sure we can arrive early enough using the bus system to make sure we are one of the first groups to get on FoP.

The buses will start running at 6:00 am. We did two AK AM EMH last week and were picked up at the Contemporary at 6:01 and 6:04.

Thanks! Were there many people already at AK when you arrived?

There was a decent sized crowd, but we only waited 37 minutes to get on FoP and 12 minutes for NRJ [did both attractions multiple times this trip thanks to rope drop, FP+, and our VIP tour guide]. CM will lead the group into Pandora, splitting off between the two attractions.

This is actually what prompted me to ask my question! haha I was wondering if I still need to get to the park an hour and a half before a 7 AM EMH opening, meaning I need to arrive at 5:30 instead or if the crowds are lighter since it's so early. I was also wondering if it's even possible to get there that early relying on the Disney resort bus system which sounds like it is not.

The crowds will definitely be "lighter" arriving well in advance of the 7AM opening.
I can guess (based on years of looking at early morning crowds) that there won't be very many guests attempting to arrive between 5:30 and 6:00AM.

Unlikely any WDW buses at a resort in advance of 5:55AM.
