Early Morning CP ADR

[Cloudless Nights]

Hey all!

We actually booked out trip 46 days out this morning (wanted one last long trip before our APs expire), and since then we've been trying to figure out our ADRs.

We usually always get a 8:05AM ADR at Crystal Palace because we love being in MK early and the food is delicious. But the only early time available this late in the game was 8:30AM. Could we enter the park at 8:00AM like we usually would do and see if they would seat us early? I imagine they would, as the restaurant would definitely not be full, but I want to make sure that this isn't frowned upon or against any rules.

Thanks for any input/advice!

If the park opens at 9am they will only let you in 15mins before your adr.

You can try, but I would prepare to wait at the turnstile.

Even though the restaurant isn't booked that early, they don't do that as to stagger the adrs. This helps the servers and or cooks to not be overwhelmed with many tables at once.
If they were to book the restaurant all right at 8am, how does the staff deal with having 4-5 tables sat at the same time?? Hopefully that makes sense.
