Poly ADR -How early can we arrive for parking?

[rthib]

I know they are getting strict on parking at resort hotels. We have a 3:30 ADR at Poly Christmas week.
Thought would be a good day to view decorations st other monorail resorts before the meal (we have plans after)

How early can we get to Poly and park?

There really isn't a hard and fast rule - it varies a lot based on the day, who is on duty, how much space is remaining in the lot, etc. Your best bet is to just try - worst case scenario is they turn you away and you park at T&TC. You can walk directly from T&TC to the Poly or just jump on the resort monorail there, tour the other 2 hotels, and then walk back or take the monorail to your car after your dinner.

Christmas week is difficult. They will Turn you away if it is as busy as expected. General rule of thumb is 3 hours for an ADR. That includes eating. You are not supposed to park at a resort and leave that resort and go somewhere else. These lots are neither big enough nor designed for that. They are for paying guests of the Resort and those eating or shopping there v

Our experience from the many years we stayed there is that the parking is less busy in the middle of the day but admittedly we were never there around Christmas and on top of that WDW is way busier than it used to be much to our chagrin.
