Is this ADR ok?

[lovemy2girls4eva]

Have BOG lunch set for 12:10pm on our departure day. Flight is at 5:19pm so figure have to be ready for pick up at 2:15 pm at AoA. Is this a good ADR to keep or drop it? Not sure about the timing.

Thanks!

I think it's fine - esp if you preorder you'll be allowed in to find seats faster and once served you don't have to wait for a check from wait staff - enjoy!

You're cutting it pretty close I'd say. I've had lunch at BOG about 6 times now, and service always varies. Sometimes we sit down and our food comes in about 5 mins but other times we've waited 20. I would highly suggest that you preorder if you have not done that yet. Preordering could really help save on some time. Buses sometimes can be tricky as well

Are you driving or using Disney buses. If using the bus go to CR and taxi/uber back to AoA. We had a 30plus minute wait last year at MK for our bus back to POFQ around 1:00. Not our normal mid-day experience. Since we were just going back to hang by the pool it was only annoying .
Just want you to be aware of a worst case scenario.

I would be nervous. I think that if you use disney transportaion it can be tricky. If I am away from my resort on a travel day I use a cab to get back. I got stuck on the monorail one time and that experience has forever changes how I plan departure days.

If you're committed to using Disney's transportation and traveling to the airport via Magical Express, you might be cutting it a little close. But in general, there's no reason why you should have to cancel a 12:10 lunch with a 5:19 flight. That's a massive buffer. Have you considered taking an Uber to the airport instead? It comes at a cost, of course, but at least that way you could stay in the park a little longer and leave a little later than you would have to on Magical Express. On vacation, time is money, and I know I don't like wasting my precious vacation time on airport shuttles.

I think it's too close. I'd be nervous about timing. You'd have to eat, get back to the bus and get back to AoA. The bus could take a long time.

I think I'd try to do BoG ppo, enjoy MK until noon and head back to the hotel.

I'd say it's pretty close. How are you planning on getting back to AoA? I still think it's close anyway you go, but I'd be more concerned if you were relying on a Disney bus, as those can be some longer waits in the middle of the day. I wouldn't necessarily cancel it, but I'd make sure a few different things were done.

1. Pre-order for sure.
2. I'd arrive a little before 12, and see if they can let you in then.
3. I'd make sure no matter what that your group was prepared to leave BoG by 12:40ish. (your ME bus could be scheduled for as early as 2:00, and you'd need to be at the resort no later than 1:45 and really if they're holding anything for you, then I'd try to be back even earlier than that, because sometimes that can take a little time)
4. Once you leave BoG, everyone in the party is set on heading straight out of MK at a decent pace.
