how much time should I allow?

[DisneyDancin7]

I have an 8:10 ADR for Crystal Palace...I'm staying at POP and I was just wondering when you think we should leave our hotel to make it with plenty of time to take a few pics in the park?

also, i heard somewhere that there are special buses to take you to the MK...is this true? if so, when do they start running and do they stop at the regular bus stop?

TIA!

I would always allow an hour and 15 min. You never know. It's better to be early than late in my opinion.

I would be at the bus stop for the MK at POP by 7:00 AM and you should be fine.

That ride from Pop to MK seems like a haul. We had an ADR for 8:05am last week and we were at the bus stop at 7:15 and had plenty of time for pics and such. We also got lucky and had a bus pull up right when we got to the waiting area. I would say no later than 7:15am for MK.

Can you drive yourself that early? And be able to park and get to the mk by the monorail?

unfortunately we won't have a car...

thanks everyone for your help!

but is there a "special" bus that I need to look for, or should i just get on whatever bus shows up?

The buses will be marked for what park they are going to. So, you will want to make sure that you get on the MK bus. If you are unsure, ask the driver. Have a wonderful time. I love the CP buffet--the food is fantastic!!!

I have done early ADRs at CP twice now- once with a car and yes, we were able to drive there and walk to monorail--- no problems
BTW we were at POP that time and left our resort at 720am... for an 810 adr. Had 5 minutes to spare. (with waiting for the monorial ect).... so if you are driving from the POP, leave by 7am??
