What time do you think we should plan on being out at the bus stop each morning to take advantage of the extra hour at the parks? We're staying at CSR in July if that makes any difference.
We always aim to get to the bus stop 45 minutes before opening. So if we are going on a regular day that opens at 9:00, we get to the bus at 8:15, or if we are going on an EE day that opens at 8:00 we get to the bus at 7:15.
We usually end up arriving about 15 minutes before opening time and we have never been 1st in line, but never too far back either. It works well for us. I dont think getting there any earlier and getting any closer to the front of the line would really make much of a difference since you technically enter the park seconds, maybe a minute or 2 at most, after the first people in line.
