Leaving BLT ?

[TeacherDL]

Animal Kingdom opens at 8:00 on the day we are going. I have FP for FOP, so we are going to rope drop Navi. What time should I be at the bus stop at BLT to get there early enough? I am thinking of leaving around 6:45-7:00?

Also, what about a 9:00 am opening for Epcot? I was thinking I should be at the Monorail at 7:50? We are going to Test Track first if that matters.

Disney recommends allowing 1.5hrs for transportation. It could take that long or a lot less. My experience with buses when I want to be somewhere early is more than frustrating. Same with the monorail. If it were me, I'd Uber/Minnie Van it to my destination.

I would be at the bus stop for AK by 6:30. For Epcot, it depends on where you want to be in the rope drop crowd. If you get to the monorail platform at 7:50, you may not be walking into Epcot until 8:30 or later, depending on how long you have to wait at CR and the TTC to switch trains.

I agree I would be at the bus stop no later than 6:30 am. If you want to get a little more sleep and have a more definitive arrival time I'd use Uber or Lyft. Last year we had a DVC Pandora preview at 9:00 am, we used Uber and were there in less than 15 mins. I think it costs like $7.50, best $10 (w/tip) I ever spent !
