Help getting to MK from BCV 1 1/2 hrs b/f park opens

[tigger1972]

I booked BBB in Cinderella's Castle at 8am on DD's 3rd birthday. MK opens at 9am that day, and our instructions are to arrive at the front gates of MK "no later than 7:45am".

We are planning to fly instead of drive this trip, and plan to arrange towncar service to BCV. Our current plans are that we will not have a car or rental car for this trip.

So, I'm thinking our options are:

A) Bus to MK: how early does the bus service start??? What time should we be at the BC bus stop to get to MK by 7:45?

B) Set up one-way towncar or taxi from BCV to MK for that morning: Where is the closest place the towncar/taxi will drop us off??? I've heard they can't drop you at the front gates. Would we be dropped off at the TTC and then have to take the monorail? Does the monorail start that early? What time should the towncar/taxi pick us up if this is the best option? We would need a carseat for DD3 and a booster for DS. Do taxi's even provide this option?

c) Alter our travel plans and drive instead of fly. Since this is an important appointment, plan to drive ourselves to the contemporary and pay for valet parking, then walk to MK to insure we won't be late.

Which option is best? Or is there another better choice I am not thinking of?

Thanks!!

Double check with the BC. The buses should be running early to the MK so you would be able to get to the gates in time for your breakfast (Disney knows that resort guests actually dine at the parks before the park opening times). You should be at the bus stop at least an hour before you want to be at the MK. I would probably be at the bus stop an hour & 15 minutes to play it safer. That would be 6:30 a.m. (Yikes! That's early with a 3 year old).

Or you can take a taxi from the BC. I would suggest you take the taxi to the Contemporary Resort, and you can walk to the MK from there. Easy walk!

I wouldn't rent a car just for the breakfast.

Enjoy your breakfast at the Castle with your daughter for her birthday!!

No worries. Buses run very early for that reason. We often make reservations for 8 am and get on a bus around 7 or 7:15. You will make your reservation in plenty of time. MK buses are plentiful early in the a.m. Enjoy your trip!!!!
