Okay for my cute little birthday breakfast it's going to take place at Chef Mickey's at Disney Contemporary Resort. I have it booked for 7:00 A.M. > Okay I will be by myself ( well my little friend Flower will be with me ) and I don't have a car. The people at AllStar Resort's told me that as long as I am out at the bus stop like 45 min before my breakfast that I will get there in time.

I was told that I look for a bus that says Magic Kingdom. I go in and tell the bus driver that I have a breakfast at Chef Mickey's and he/she will drop me off at Contemporary before going to Magic Kingdom so I can get to my Breakfast in time.

Anyways this is what I was promisted and told so I want to try to do the best I can to make sure that I was told right so if anyone has any info or has done stuff like this before let me know. Thanks :) I will be wearing a shirt with Flower the Skunk on it that says " It's my Birthday " Flower is in his cute embarrassed look on this shirt and I get embarrassed very easy so this will be fun and so many people will know it's my Birthday, this shall be a fun day even if I miss my cute little breakfast :)
 
I think you were given wrong information. I think you need to plan on a full hour, take the bus to the Magic Kingdom and take the monorail or walk from there to the Contemporary. Walking will possibly be faster early in the morning if there is a line for the monorail.

As a general rule the drivers don't deviate from their routes. WHile you can ask the driver if it's possible to drop you off, please don't be disappointed if they say they are unable to do so.

Chip 'N Dale (former Disney bus driver now at the GF) has posted many times about the early breakfast buses. He always advises to be at your bus stop 45 minutes prior to your reservation and he also recommends telling the driver where you are going. I have never done this, but Chip 'N Dale indicates that if the driver has time he/she will drop you off right at the resort (CR in this case).
If you do have to get off at the MK just take the ten minute walk over to the resort.
 
Indeed, for a 7:00am breakfast, be out at the bus stop 45 minutes prior to your seating time (6:15) and board the bus marked MAGIC KINGDOM. Make sure to tell the driver which breakfast you are going to. At that super early time of the morning, they should be able to take you there directly.

Why 45 minutes? 15 minutes wait time in case you just missed the bus, 15 minutes drive time, and 15 minutes for Murphy's Law/Walk time.

Tyler,

it looks like some of the CMs you trained at POP have transferred to AS. Maybe if enough spread arround, ALL the resorts will give out accurate information :teeth:

I actually thought about it today and was thinking I might not even want to get up that early so I have another one booked at 11:10 A.M. on wed which is 2 days before my birthday but can still count as my cute adorable ( lets put adorable in here lol ) little birthday breakfast. I have 3 cute adorable little birthday breakfast for these trips.

I think I will keep the 11:10 A.M. one and cancell the other one. 11:20 is the last time they seat for this breakfast and I tend to take a while to eat and plus since I am a Vegan ( not animal products in my diet ) I will have to have the Chef go over with me what I can and can't eat so I very well might be the last one out or one of the last. I can get more attention and plus it will be my birthday. But thanks for all who posted.
