EE at EPCOT: Best way from Beach Club?

[WDW4us2003]

As the Beach Club has no bus service to the main entrance of Epcot, does anyone know the best way to get to the front of the park for EE days? Do we just walk through the International Gateway? As it's a good hike from there, are we usually late to get on the rides? Not really sure what to do!

You should be okay going thru the IG. If you really fear missing out you'll need to take an early bus to the front gate.

We just walked through the International Gateway. I suppose the people coming through the front gate do get a bit of a head start on you because they are closer to the Future World rides, but there's hardly anyone coming through International Gateway (or at least it was that way when we were there) so you just walk right in with no wait at all. We strolled very leisurely past Canada and UK and through Future World to Spaceship Earth, and we still only waited about 3 minutes in line when we got there. That was June 2001, and the parks were really packed most of the time, so we enjoyed the treat of walking through the park from International Gateway with virtually no one around.

Or you can take the boat to the IG then walk. But remember....coming in from the IG you can hit Test Track first. The people coming in from the front have a longer walk to that attraction than you do!
