Can we get in early for an 8:05 ADR on 8am opening?

[Pherie]

Hi, I'm new here and planning for my first trip. Have a 8:05am CRT ADR on a 8am opening day.

Will we be able to get in earlier? How early?

TIA!

Nope.

You'll get in with the throng and need to book to your ADR.

The :05 after opening ADRs are the ones that start the rest of the day being behind schedule.

 

[Pherie]

Oh I see... So it's not worth doing it right?

 

[Pherie]

It was supposed to be a pre rope drop until the opening hours was changed recently..:-(

If I'm getting to a park at rope-drop, I'm not wasting the most valuable hour of park time at a restaurant.

 

[Pherie]

Ok. Hope I can find another CRT here!

Let me ride on my own thread...

How early are we allow in if we have 8:40 bf on 9am opening day?

About 15 minutes in advance of your ADR, usually.

Might depend on the restaurant. For BOG, everyone can get in at the same time.

Sorry, what do you mean by "everyone gets in at the same time"?

You left out a very important word when you attempted to quote me.

If you have a pre-park breakfast, you get in before the park opens. If they let pre-park folks in at 7:50, it doesn't matter if you have an 8:00 or 8:55 reservation; they aren't going to hold you outside the park. Everyone can get in at the same time.

Oops. Thanks for the clarification. I understand now. Cheers!
