Then Chef Mickey's to AKL.
Sunday night going from AKL to x-mas party at 7 pm.

Monday: Going from HS to MK. Would like to arrive at MK by 6 or 6:30 pm.

Wed: AK to Boardwalk. Would like to arrive at boardwalk by 6 or 7 pm.

Thurs: MK to Fort Wilderness for campfire.

Friday: Probably Epcot to HS. Would like to arrive at HS by 4 or 5 pm.

Thanks!

1. hand your bags off to Luggage Assistence as soon as possible in the morning..they may not start until 7am, and that will be an issue for you. If you are able to hand off your bags by 6:30, great..just head over to the MK bus stop and head there so you can walk over to CM's for breakfast (an 8 min walk). If you can't hand off your bags that early, then you'll have to wait until they open for business, and then take a cab to CM's. Eat and then walk back over to MK and take the AKL bus from there.

Bus to MK from AKL for the party, and then bus back to AKL after the party.

2...Take the MK bus from HS. The bus will drop you at the TTC and then you need to take either the monorail or ferry over to MK. OR...take the CR bus from DHS and then walk over to MK. To be there for 6, you need to leave by 5:15ish.

3..This one could be tough. Depends on what time AK closes..assuming you mean AK and not AKL. If you are at AK, hop on the BW bus...to be there for 6ish, you need to be at the bus by 5:15ish. If at AKL, you need to head to DHS...then, either walk (about 20 mins) or boat (between 20-45 mins) over to BW. You should leave AKL by 4pm.

4. Boat over to FtW from MK and then an internal bus.

5. Several options, depending on where in Epcot you are. If you are at the front of the park, you can take a bus to DHS...leave about 3:30 to get there for 4. If at the rear of the park, WS, you can take the boat at the International Gateway to DHS...25 min boat ride plus any wait time..could be up to 20 mins. Or just walk. Walking is quicker than the boat...it takes about 20 mins to walk. I have left the dock area, as the boat was pulling out...I beat the boat to DHS by about 8 mins.

Thanks! When should we leave for the x-mas party on Sunday from AKL? I was thinking leave at 6 to get there by 7 pm. Will it take that long?

Do you know that you can get into the party as early as 4:00?

We aren't paying for a separate park ticket that day. the CM told me that if we only have teh x-mas party tickets we can enter at 7 pm.

The party starts at 7:00, but you are able to enter the park with your party ticket at 4:00.

You should be able to enter MK any time after 4pm with your party ticket...it's been that way for years. You should need about 40 mins to get from AKL to MK...including any possible wait times for the bus to arrive at AKL.

Disney tried having party guests arrive and enter just before 7, but there was a huge gridlock..thousands of people arriving, as day guests were leaving...that just didn't work. So now, they allow party guests in with just a party ticket, from 4pm. I haven't heard of any change to this policy. But, you can watch the Theme Parks board to see if that changes at some time before you head down. They get all the latest news about stuff like that.
