Early morning ADR's.. how do you get there

[Amstar]

We are staying at POP century and have ADR's for:

Crystal Palace - 8:05am

Chef Mickey's - 8:35 am

Tusker House - 8:20 am

How do we get there from POP (I would think the bus) but how early do we need to be out there for the bus to make it to our ADR's?

From POP to AK and MK you would take a bus. To Chef Mickey's you would take a bus to MK and get on the monorail going to the CR. I gave myself an hour to get to the parks. On the days I needed to switch to a monorail or boat I gave myself more time 1 and 1/2 hours. We went during a slower time of year (sept). If you are going during a busier time of year i'd give myself even more time. If you don't want to get up that early you could grab a taxi.

We are always out at the bus stop before seven so we catch the first bus going to the park with our ADR.

Pretty good. 7:30 is the latest you want to catch a bus to the ADR's though there usually isn't a problem.

For Crystal Palace, go a little earlier especially. You get into the park early due to the reservations and can get great pictures of you on Main Street.

so with our ADR if we are out at the bus stop at 7am we should be golden?

Are there alot of people ready for the bus at those times? How early do people get there for rope drop?

If our ADR is at crystal palace is at 8:05am and the park opens at 9 we shouldnt even attempt rope drop we should just head for the rides/area we want to first (fantasyland at magic kindom right? LOL)

7 - 7:30 is the best time yes.

Often there aren't many people up then unless they also have ADR's or if a park is opening early. People generally start to arrive at 8-ish for rope drop (Depends on how hardcore.) But because you have ADR's, there's a separate little path that you check in with using your reservations and get to go around. It's on the far right, opposite of the monorail station.

If you get out before 9, I believe so, yes. However you generally might be a little later so this shouldn't be a problem.

Enjoy

We are staying at POR and have a reservation at Chef Mickey's at 7am. Will there be a bus running early enough or will we need a taxi?

I agree, I would get to the bus stop an hour ahead of time. For the ADR at CM's, give yourself an extra 10 mins because once you get off the bus, you can just walk to CR if you don't want to wait for the monorail.
