First Bus from Kidani to MK

[Opie100]

If I have 8:00am reservations for breakfast at Be Our Guest on a day where the park opens at 9am and there are no extra magic hours, what time will the first bus leave Kidani for MK? Also, what is the first time we would be allowed into the park?

The bus should arrive at about 6am at the resort. You should be allowed in about 7:45ish.

I did this from Kidani on 10/11. The first bus arrived at Kidani at 6:30. It did not make the second stop at Jambo House for some reason.

We were the only ones waiting at the MK for a bit once we arrived. We had to wait for security to come on duty to check my bag.

We had Tusker at 8:00 and we had family meeting there from several resorts. Two resort front desks told folks buses don't start until 8 and they would need to take a cab. I was texting that night to reassure them but one ended up cabbing it anyway.

I knew the bus would be there - we walked down at 7:15, bus was there within a couple minutes, we were at AK with plenty of time. Anyway, while we were in the bus we were texting the family to confirm "buses are running guys!" and when we stopped at AK the bus driver said he overheard us and to "never get transportation info from anyone other than a bus driver!" and he confirmed buses started at 6:30 for that time of year.

I would leave earlier for MK since its a little further, but you WILL have a bus!

Thank you -- if they start at 6:30am how often do they come? Every 15 mins? Today the Kidani screens only had estimated arrival times for a couple parks.

Reportedly, Disney has started using separate buses for Kidani Village & Jambo House first thing in the morning during busy times.

When we got to the buses the screen was blank, but a bus showed up within maybe 5 minutes. I don't know that the screens work very well early in the morning. I don't know how often they come - 15-20 seems reasonable as a worst-case scenario.
