Can we make it from Wilderness Lodge to Crystal Palace in 1 hour and 15 minutes?

Is it possible to get from Wilderness Lodge to the Crystal Palace in an hour and 15 minutes? To make this harder we will are wanting to eat there before attending a party. We are planning on leaving Wilderness Lodge at 4:00 and hopefully get a reservation around 5:15. I’m hoping all the party goers will already be mostly let into the park before we arrive at MK.

Yes, that will be ample time. The boat ride is pretty quick.

@maryj11 keep in mind the MK bus also runs from the WL so you have 2 options. The hour between 4 PM and 5 PM tends clog up the entrance tap stiles as many, many guests will be trying to enter as early as possible and party guests for MNSSHP and MVMCP allow party ticket holder to enter at 4 PM.

Yes. The boats quicker, the bus will stop at either the contemporary or FW first. And with the boat you have your own security line so it’s quicker. Take the boat, weather permitting.

Yes that’s what I was thinking. Hopefully the line will be moving by then if we get there around 4:30

Absolutely have fun

I have the opposite concern. You may have to wait to be seated and miss some of the party.

There will be a huge party crowd waiting to get into the park at 4pm. It will be a lot of people. If you have regular park tickets, then you can get into the park through the regular gates. But if you have party tickets then you will be limited to a certain section of the entrance gates. It will take a few minutes, but you will have plenty of time to get to Crystal Palace for your reservation.

We plan on leaving wilderness lodge at 4:00. I’m hoping the crowds in line will be moving pretty good by the time we get there. We won’t have regular park tickets for the day.
