How early to enter parks for pre-opening breakfast

[jhpatrick1]

I was wondering how early Disney will let you in the park if you have an 8:05 breakfast ressie? I love being in the park early to soak in the empty main street, but was not sure how early you are allowed in the park before the first scheduled ressie

Please post your earliest in park times.

Thanks.

When we had 8:05 for CRT I don't know the exact time we got into the park but we were early and I remember having to wait a little bit at the gate before they let us enter. That said, we still had plenty of time to take pictures on Main St. on our way to the castle.

Our CP time in MK was 8:05 a.m., and we were let in at 8:00 a.m. on the dot.

If your time is 8:30 will they also let you in at 8am?

Our CRT reservation was about 8:20 or so - they let us in as soon as they opened the gate for the ADR people. I'd say it was about 7:45am, maybe a tad earlier than that. They didn't check us to see that we didn't have an 805 time - we ended up getting into CRT ahead of our ADR time.

One day at CP breakfast at 8:00 and another day BBB at 8:15. Both times we stood in line and waited to be let in, which was at 8:00 on the nose. They don't know if you're there for an 8:00 ressie or a 10:00 ressie, at least we were never asked, so I guess anyone could get in at this time.

1) They give you 5-10 minutes to get to the ADR.
2) People shouldn't be strolling around Main Street.
3) This gives enough time for a photo or two.
