Early photo shoot question

[Pluto80]

in August we had a photo shoot at Epcot with the fine art photographers. Unfortunately the shoot did not go well, and actually ended with some of the equipment catching fire! Anyway, our shoot was for 7.45am and as we were staying at the Beach Club it was just a short walk to the International Gateway, which was where we met the photographer.

We've been given a reshoot since our last one didn't work out so well. We'll be staying at OKW at the time, but still need to be at the International Gateway at 7.45am. How's best to get there? We won't have a car, and we also won't have the benefit of walking there. I'm not sure if buses will be running then, and if they were, would we even be able to get around to the gateway?

Any ideas?

Your choices are taking a taxi or Uber. ETA: I would take the cab/uber to the Beach Club and walk to the International Gate from there.

You could take the bus to Hollywood, and then take the boat or walk to international gateway. They should be operating early enough due to the 8:00 breakfast at Hollywood and Vine. I would only choose this over a cab if car seats are an issue.

I don't believe that a bus to DHS will come early enough to enable the OP to either boat or walk from there to be at the International Gateway by 7:45
I agree cab/uber is the way to go

I've never used Uber before, and am from the UK. Is it pretty straightforward? Can I prebook it to make sure it's there on time to take us? The same question for a cab? Would they be available at that time since it's so early?

I have never used Uber either. You have to have their app installed on a Smart phone and an Uber account established in advance. I don't know if you can order in advance, I am sure someone more knowledgeable will chime in soon.
For a Taxi Cab, you can definitely order in advance and they will be waiting for you at the designated time.
And yes, they will be available that early in the morning.

You may want to just stick with a cab then. You can call and order a cab to pick you up at a specific time. Uber is very easy to use but it relies on people driving nearby to pick up your ride.
