Early Reservations at Plaza Inn Question?!?

[tyffanidawn]

So, I'm noticing on the DL website that the earliest reservation I can make on a Wed. is 9:40am for the Minnie & Friends character breakfast, though the park doesn't open until 10am!!! My question is how do I get into DL for my 9:40am reservations?!? Is there a certain place that I check in when I arrive at the gates to let them know I have early reservations at Plaza Inn?!?

I think there is a window that will have Plaza inn labeled I am not sure if I remember it right. They may also still let ppl in at 930 giving 30 mins to main street shop and get lined up for rope drop?

One of the turnstiles to get in will be labeled "Character Breakfast". It's usually on the far end towards lost and found. There will be a CM there with a clip board to check you in. You just give them the name the reservation was made under. Then they will lead you through to the restaurant.

ETA: *turnstiles (thank you auto correct)

Turnstile #1 is for the Minnie And Friends Breakfast. In addition, they begin letting guests into Main Street at 9:30, so all turnstiles will be open at that point.

We did not have a good experience last year and are prepared for the same this year. Some of the CMs that work the gates are, well let's try to say this politely, uninformed.

It should work great - you should be on the list and allowed in to get to your reservation in plenty of time - but we did not - we had a 9:40 reservation and were only allowed in at 9:30 - we did make our reservation in time but we sort of had to rush to do so.

We have a 9:30 booked for a Monday - I am curious to see how they handle that now, as 9:40 used to be the earliest you could book.
