Getting to Crystal Palace from Pop - Before park opens

[habg1]

We have a 8:10am reservation at Crystal Palace in Feb. We are staying at Pop Century for the 1st time. We need to get to Magic Kingdom before our reservation time.

How do I get there using the bus system? Do they run that early? Or do we have to find an alternative way?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think buses for Character Breakfast start running at 7:00am and run about every 20 minutes.

That would be great if they started that early.

I do also believe the buses start early to get people to their dining reservations, call the front desk of the hotel and ask them what time it starts.... not sure of the time

We did this last year. The buses do start early enough to get you to your breakfast reservations. I just wanted to give you a heads up though. Make sure to give yourself enough time to get from hotel to park. It would say it takes a good 45 minutes or more. We left about 30 minutes before our reservation (the buses were really slow) and didnt make it in time. Luckily since it was jsut the 2 of us we still got in.

If you're late they do usually let you in anyway- we've been late a couple of times & it's been ok.

The buses do run early enough to get you there on time. I'd ask at the hotel desk what time you should leave and they can tell you specifics about what time you should plan to get the bus.

8:10 at Crystal palace is, i believe their earliest seating and will get you into the park at rope drop if you plan it right. we do this a lot. Think about where you want to go first and leave the restaurant just before 9:00 to get there when they open (ie Tomorrowland, Adventureland, etc).

PS Don't miss the breakfast Lasagna. It's my favorite!!
