Animal Kingdom EMH Bus Start Times

[hello starshine]

On a day where Animal Kingdom opens at 8am with EMH (9am regular) do the buses still start 90min ahead of time? We're looking to rope drop and would rather be at the front of the pack so I'm trying to figure out if we should take a bus or Minnie Van from AOA. I've searched and haven't been able to get a clear answer on when the buses start running for EMH (I keep seeing some say 60min before hand, others say 90). Thank you!

Buses start around 6 30 every day

Thank you so much! I kept seeing that they only started 1 hour before EMH and was hoping that wasn't true, glad it's not.

An oft-repeated piece of misinformation, including by WDW itself.

That makes sense because I was seeing it there LOL! We haven't rope dropped in a few years so I haven't needed to pay attention to bus times in a while and never realized.

Only time buses would start an hour before park opening is a rare day when a park opens at 7 AM.
