Akershus before park opening?

[mommys3]

I just booked breakfast at Akershus at 8:00 am (Epcot opens at 9:00)
Do we enter at the main entrance? And what time should we get there? TIA

Unless you are coming from an Epcot resort, you enter the main entrance. If coming from an Epcot resort, you can enter through the International Gateway entrance.

I'd plan to show up 5 - 10 minutes before your ADR time.

You can go to the main entry or the back entry (between Boardwalk/Beach Club hotels).

Depending on where you are staying you can use either entrance.

If you are using the main entrance allow time to walk through Future World and back into the World Showcase. If you are in an Epcot Resort and using the International Gateway it's a bit closer but you will still need to factor in a little travel time.

Depending on your walking speed it can take between 10-20 minutes and if you want to take photos factor in a few minutes for stops. (I'm sure that there are power walkers who can do it faster)

Have fun and say hello to Belle for us!

As far as the entrance, it depends on where you are coming from. If you are coming from one of the Epcot Hotels you can enter thru the International Gateway. Else, just use the front entrance. Akershus asks that you check in 15 minutes before your reservation. Keep in mind that if you come from the front entrance it will take you about 5 - 10 mins to get there depending on the walking speed of the folks in your party. Then, they will have a picture taken with the Princess and you will be seated. Have fun. It is yummy!!
