Best way to get to AK for ADR before park opens?

[HappyCamperToo]

We are staying off site. AK opens at 9:00 a.m. We have ADR for 8:00 a.m. at Donald's Breakfast. I'm pretty sure the parking lot won't be open in time for us to make the ADR. MK doesn't open until 9:00 that day, too.

Guessing we'll have to park elsewhere and take a bus.

Should we valet park at AKL? That would give us 24 hours, if I've read these boards right. The usual 3hr pass wouldn't do it, as we want to tour AK after breakfast.

Or should we park at TTC and take a bus from there? Do busses even go from there to AK? Or would we have to take monorail or boat to MK and then take a bus from MK to AK??? This is getting SO confusing!!!

Help. What should we do?

i think you can take car and tell you have an ADR
call guest relations and they should be able to help
all the resorts have early buses that go there
we did that last year at pop
it was so easy

You will end up in disaster unless you are first in line at a toll booth archway at AK where if all else fails you shall move the cone and drive on through to the short circuit exit that in turn lets you head for the AK Lodge to park there and take the bus.

I've been in this spot before where they wouldn't let us into the parking lot until 7:45 and we didn't arrive for our 8:00 PS at donald's until 8:19. They still seated us. Takes us longer because we have to reassemble a scooter which is in the trunk.

So I know we're going to park somewhere else and take a bus--I juist want to understand where is the best place to do this--at AKL, or at TTC, or somewhere else???

Thanks.
