Crystal palace breakfast reservation before park opening question

[Shelbizzles]

hello!
I was able to get an 8:20am reservation for the crystal palace before the park is open. Am I going to have any difficulties getting a bus to make it there on time? MK opens at 9 that day. The earliest one of the other parks does open is at 8. I'm not sure if that affects the busses. I just want to know the best way to get there about 8am or so

My understanding is the busses run plenty early to get folks to the early ADRs

Be out at your bus stop no later than 7. Buses do run for guests that have early ADRS.

Busses run early and on a seemingly normal schedule, so you should be fine. Just make sure you're at your hotel bus stop with enough time to potentially wait for the 20minute delay if you just miss a bus.

Additionally, depending on the hotel you are staying at, you might want to add a little bit extra for travel in case they make multiple stops. For instance, last month we stayed at Sports and had a pre-opening ressie. The bus that picked us up at Sports in the morning then went to Music to pick up more people and then Movies for even more people. Those hotels are close, but it still added close to 10 minutes more to the normal 17minute bus ride. Once you get to the park gate, look for the CMs to the left side of the ticket scanners to check in and be permitted entrance to the park to make it to your reservation at Crystal Palace.

Have fun!

I have a few early reservations as well and from what I have been told there are early busses running knowing there will be those with early dining reservations but just not as many buses as during the day. That being said make sure you don't miss that first bus because it won't be as quick to get another from what I was told.
