Crystal Palace breakfast question

[jlx2]

We have an 8:10 reservation for breakfast at the Crystal Palace. We've never done this before and I have a few questions. We will be staying off site and since the park doesn't open until 9:00 how do we get in to eat breakfast? I am assuming we should arrive (by our own car) to the parking lot by 7:15 or so and be at the monorail at the transportation center by 7:30 Are the parking lots open this early, and are the trams to the ttc running yet? Will we be able to take the monorail over to the Magic Kingdom if we give them the reservation #? What time do they start allowing breakfast guests into the park? (We were told to be there a little before our reservation time). Thank you in advance for your responses.

I can't answer all your questions but I'll bump this up for you.

I do know that they wait till exact 8:00a to let guests with 8:05a and later ADRs in.

Hopefully someone can tell you when the TTC opens for guests.

We had an 8:05 breakfast reservation at CP in June. I can't answer your question regarding transportation to MK b/c we stayed onsite. They did let us through the MK gates at 7:45. We had a few minutes to take pictures before CP opened.

I think the resort monorail starts running early. You might want to ask this on the transportation board. Someone there will know for sure.

We had an 8:10 a.m. reservation at the Crystal Palace a couple of years ago and we were staying offsite, as well. We arrived at the Transportation Center about 7:15 or so. We parked in one of the first rows (didn't need the parking lot tram we were so close). The monorail was running. When we arrived, there was an area for people with early ADR's to stand and they let us in before 8:00 a.m. It's very nice because you are walking down Main Street practically by yourself.

Don't worry. It will all work out perfectly. They do this every day.

We have the same early reservation for the Crystal Palace in August.
