I am staying at BWI and have got to be at the MK at 7:15 am for a tour. The buses/monorail don't run that early so I guess my only option to take a taxi to the CR and walk. Anyone have any other suggustions?
 
There are "character" buses that run as early as 6:30 to take guests to breakfast.

When each comes, ask the driver if he is going to Magic Kingdom if the destination sign does not already say so.
 
7:15 is going to be early, but it's doable. The buses start running to the MK by 6:30. Be out at the bus stop by 6:15..sometimes they start earlier for MK. If you miss a bus, the next may not be there for 20+ mins.
The bus should be marked as to it's destination...but you can double check with the driver just to be sure.
 
Your best bet would be to take a cab, it's the only way you will be in control of when you will get there. I would have the cab drop me at the entrance to the CR. From there it is a short walk to the MK entrance, and will avoid you having to wait for a monorail or boat from the TTC. The trip is a little less than 5 miles so I would estimate a cab fare of $12-$15 plus tip and at most 10 minute cab ride plus a 5-10 walk to the MK entrance.

One last thing there will probably be cabs already waiting at the valet stand, if not they will get you one quick, and you won't have to walk down to the bus stop and sit there waiting in the dark.

I agree with what you suggested.
 
Guessing it's the steam train tour? If so, the funny thing is, dont take the monorail lol.. They were talking about some mornings when things dont go smoothly, they've had guests on the monorail, but couldnt get to the train tour.. :goodvibes

Seriously, just take a cab to the CR and walk to the MK from there. The bus 'should' work, but it's just not worth stressing about it.
