From POP to Poly

[sydprincess]

Any suggestions on the fastest/easiest way to get from POP to the Poly for breakfast?

Thanks!

If you have a car, you can drive directly over the Poly - just tell the guard at the gate you have breakfast reservations.

If you are planning on heading to Magic Kingdom after, I would suggest parking at the TTC and walking over to the Poly (it's really a beautify short walk) as you can only park at the Poly for a limited time (I believe it's up to 3 hours).

If you don't have a car, just take a bus to the Magic Kingdom, then hop on the monorail over to the Poly.

I agree that if using Disney Transport, there is only one best way to get from Pop to Poly, and that's bus from Pop to Magic Kingdom and then resort monorail from MK to Poly.

At Poly, the monorail station is in the second floor of the Great Ceremonial House. Both 'Ohana and Kona Cafe are also on the second floor of that building, making the monorail extra convenient for you.

Buses start running from the resorts to the parks around 6:30 a.m. or so, and the resort monorail starts running at 7:00 a.m., so you'll have ample opportunity to get to your breakfast ADR no matter how early it is.

If it's a VERY early reservation, like WAAAY before Magic Kingdom opens that day, it won't hurt to mention to the driver that you're having breakfast at the Polynesian, as there's a decent chance he/she will drive you directly to the Polynesian rather than to MK!

I can name that tune with one note.
This could be the easiest way because it can be described using just one word. (And it happens to be fastest too).

Automobile.

OT, and Ph.D. in transportation engineering needed: It's a one seat ride, adding to the ease.

Using the buses early in the morning through the first hour of park open time, be at the stop early enough that there are at least two buses you could take without being late. There is a chance the last possible bus you want may be full and you can't get on. Although allowing for two buses is not foolproof, each bus has a smaller chance of being full compared with the one after it.

Don't forget there is also a boat from the Magic Kingdom to the Polynesian, however it will 1st stop at the Grand Floridian and then it goes to the Polynesian. Also after the Resort Monorail leaves the Magic Kingdom it stops at the Contemporary and TTC before arriving at the Polynesian. Finally when it comes to the buses dropping guests off at the resorts very early mornings it's still not company policy that the bus drivers must do, so not every driver might do that. Plus with the new bus systems aren't some drivers on a schedule because after their buses are supposed to arrive at the Magic Kingdom they might need to go somewhere new, so they won't go back to the resort they just came from.
