EARLY MORNING ADR'S

[knieves711]

I have an early morning 8AM breakfast ressie at Cinderella's Royal Table the week of November 8th. The park doesnt open until 9. Are we permitted to stay in the park once our meal is over or are you made to leave until park opening? I have never had an early ressie at any of the parks where the meal would be finished before park opening.

i dont believe you have to leave the park, however you wont be able to do much either other than take pics of an empty park (which I LOVE to do) as that area will be blocked off until the rope droppers have made it to the castle and the mad dash to A&E & SDMT begins.

Thanks! I dont mind hanging around inside an empty park, but the thought of having to go back to the front of the park only to be bombarded with the mad dash, frightens me....lol

when we ate at Hollywood and Vine in DHS before park opening, they had a small area where we could roam. It was awesome b/c Tigger was there! Then when it was time they had a CM standing in front of the group and waited until the massive flood of people came storming towards us and then let us go to get washed in with the crowd.

Are you sure you have a 7 AM ADR? The earliest I have ever heard is 8:05 AM, even when the park opens early. I just did a search for Nov 9, 1015 to see if I was wrong and the earliest they search for is 8:05. I would check your confirmation to be sure

When we had an 8:05 at CRT we were the very first family seated and weren't done until 9. The good thing was we were ahead of the crowd so it was nice to walk right onto some of the more popular attractions without waiting.

Unless you are very fast eaters and have no interest in staying to meet the Princesses, most likely it will be fairly close to 9:00 when you are done. If you are finished early, you won't have to return to the front of the park, but there will be sections of the park that are blocked off. If you want to take photos of a relatively empty park, it would be better to take them before breakfast, just in case you aren't done before 9:00.

Thanks everyone!

If the park is not open yet when you finish breakfast, you will exit into an open area with certain paths guarded by CMs. They usually let you go a little bit before the crowd from the front of the park makes it to that area which tends to be about 10-15 minutes before 9.

In part, that's the purpose of pre-opening ADR's - to beat the rope drop crowd.

As the expressions goes - this ain't Disney's first rodeo. You will be directed by Cast Members with likely advice how best to get to 7Dwarfs or Anna & Elsa Meet-n-Greet. If these are not your first ideas, then you are more than golden for any other attractions.

1) November 8th is a Christmas Party day.
2) Frequently, they open early on those days
3) This allows non-party-goers have more than the 9:00am-7:00pm park time.
