We have ADRs at Tusker House at 8 AM and would like to arrive early by car. The Unofficial Guide to WDW states that the AK parking lot doesn't open until 15 minutes before park opening (which would be 8:45)!:scared1::scared1::eek::scared1:

We really wanted to drive that day to the park. "Ideally" I would like to arrive about 20 minutes early. Does anyone know if they will let you in with early ADR's?:confused3 If so, why does the UG say not to drive to AK?
 
i'm not sure what the answer is to this one...but I'm thinking that if you show them your confirmation for your ADR at the parking entrance, they will have to let you in right? I hope so!
 
We had an 8:15 ADR at Tusker House on our last trip (Sept). We drove into the parking lot with no problem.
 

I had also read that and was unsure, but we were leaving from AK so had to take our car, and it was fine. Our reserv. was 8:15 I think, and we had no problems.

I believe you show the people at the gate you confirmation number to your ADR and they shall let you in. Same with when you will be heading in AK
 
We drove to AK with no problem, we even walked the distance from the car to the gates!

As for your ressie, I believe the gate CMs have a list of people who have pre-park open ressies. Just find them, check in and you should be allowed through. It's going to take you 20 minutes just to hoof it back to Tusker anyway. You may want to leave a little earlier than that!
